Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

As a 24 year old Bachelor, this is the 3rd vacuum I have owned. The first one was a cheap, underpowered Dirt Devil Stick Vacuum. The second was a Eureka Superlite that was better, but I sensed that it was still fairly ineffectual . I came across this online and decided to give it a shot. This vacuum has 5 settings; Number 1 is for hard floors, and the next 4 are for carpet. I made the mistake of putting it on number 5, for the highest carpet setting. It did ok, but I wasn't impressed. Then I thought for a second, and switched it to number 2, the lowest carpet setting. WOW what a change! This thing immediately started sucking up years of crap that my crappy vacuums had failed to get! I had made the mistake of using that "Carpet Fresh" Baking Soda stuff that you put on your carpets to help pick up dirt and make them smell better; I had thought that my Superlite was picking it all up; not so. This vacuum sucked up so much of that crap that I had to empty the cup 3 times!! After I was finished I noticed that my flat, lifeless carpets had all been groomed during the vacuuming and were soft again! I am incredibly impressed with this product!! It's definitely worth the price, and if it fails in a few years, I will buy another one!
