we be replace we 7 year old Bissell which be basically the same product . that vacuum perform well , as long as you clean the filter every once in a while it will last for year . I find it for cheaper at meijer.com pro : price pick up pet hair great washable filter Easy to empty canister ability to get under table , etc -lrb- almost get parallel to the ground -rrb- long cord con : a little heavy a good buy that I reccomend to anyone look for a affordable daily use vacuum .
