Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

1st off I will take some blame as I should have read MUCH deeper into the reviews. 1- The vacuum is a top heavy Engineering FLOP. The cat could easily tip this over. Seriously that bad. 2- The plastic elbow that sticks out 3" on the back side is just a breakage waiting to happen. That is the weakest stability/balanced direction also. Another Engineering FLOP. 3- The intake head is so narrow that if you have and couch or coffee table etc... that has a bump out or overhang the mid part of the body hits and the intake doesn't even get tight to the furniture. Yes from the top it looks like the intake head is wider than the body but upon turning upside down and lookin at the roller, The roller is 1.25" from each side. Engineering FLOP. 4- The intake head is at least 2" less wide than a standard vacuum. Total is 9 1/8", So if you have a mid size or bigger work zone you will notice at least a 20% increase in working time as this is at least 20% narrower than a standard vacuum. Not really a flop, just inefficient. 5- All the tools do not attach. Hmm we all know what happens to those couple small items in about a year. The ones that do I can see not staying there once pulled in/off and put back on several times. To many people that claim this thing has awesome suction and the holding tank has tons of stuff in it that the old vacuum didn't pick up,,, well I'm guessing mostly because there is brand new SHARP bristles on the roller. That would be your Carpet/rug being shaved. Not hard to figure that out. Will see 6 months from now. Only positive I see so far is price. You can buy 3 of these for the price of some of the fancy Names but will the hassle and down time of when it breaks be worth it. I'm sorry but how could any Engineer and or CEO/board member be proud of this vacuum??? I will give it a fair shot and update the review as time moves on.
