I have the worst luck with vacuum so it be refresh to get this one . I follow the old adage of not go for the least expensive or the most expensive but go somewhere in the middle . since I have not hear good thing about Dirt Devils and have personally have hideous luck with they , I pick this one . I know I use to have this vacuum in the past but thing have be update since . at any rate , I be worry , at first , due to the 19 pound weight but , it seem to be fine and move along almost like it be self propel but I do not think it be . I have use all attachment and all be fine . what I like about this bag-less machine as compare to other be that it be easy to remove the `` tube '' in which the dirt collect . in past experience , it have always be kind of a pain to replace the dirt holder just so . this be not the case as it slide right in and a lever move to hold it in place . this have two filter , one at the top and the other at the bottom , which be always a good thing . for $ 79.99 deliver to the door within two day of order , who could complain ? -lrb- I have Amazon Prime , which I also highly recommend for anyone who shop even 10 time a year on here because it pay for itself since shipping be soooooo expensive these day . -rrb- get a bit off track . anyhow , live for the vacuum and highly recommend it to other . Hope this review help . one more quick thing be that the cord length be fabulous .
