I be be respond to the people who say it be hard to use . I be a 30 year old female and i have absolutely no problem use this product . no offense , but if someone can not use this vacuum because it be too physically demand , they have serious problem . it be a vacuum , you have to push it ... it be not automatic ! lol i agree I have have lighter vacuum , but the suction make be worthwhile to I ! the only complaint i would state , that i have not notice other people talk about much be the hose attachment . almost every time i vacuum the hose attachment fall off the vacuum and i sometimes run over it , I be not sure if it be just my vacuum , but both boyfriend and i deal with this issue .
