love this vacuum . I also own it be predecessor and due to no fault of its own , I need a replacement . Eureka have prove themselves again . the suction on this thing be unbelievable . I love the spin brush that whip the carpet as I vacuum . it feel new again under my foot as I vacuum . the box say it be 60 % more powerful than the Dyson but at half the price . the first part I believe , the second be a fact . I have want a Dyson but I despise bagless vac and I do not want to spend that much $ $ . we do not have pet hair we need to stay on top of , so I be more than please with this purchase .
