my husband be skeptical when i tell he i order a vacuum online ! he 1st question be , `` if it be commercial do that mean it be go to be super heavy ? '' Ugh ... have not even think of that and do not remember see any review about it be weight !! I be happy to report that this vacuum be not heavy at all and probably lighter than my last . thing i love about it ... great suction , weight , and the way it lay flat to clean under furniture . thing i do not love about it ... this model do not come w \/ extension hose and the one that be on it be SHORT and i also do not care for the way the cord wind . that say , i think this be a great sweeper , especially for the price !!
