this vacuum be very heavy and would be a real hassle for someone with a two story house -lrb- fortunately , I do not have to lug this monster upstairs -rrb- . the bag fill up far more quickly than those of previous vacuum I have own . overall , I would say it be a `` ok '' vacuum . it do the job and pick up dirt well , but the weight make it cumbersome . not a vacuum to buy for you grandma .
