suction be pretty strong , which be good . it be 99 % plastic which make it seem flimsy , which be bad . and the power paw already will no longer spin . come on , Power Paw ! let 's go ! I have no idea why it break but I think it get some hair stick in it . I try clean it out but it still will not go . so ... suction good , attachment lame . not bad for a cheap vac but I probably would try another vacuum if I have it to do over .
