Title: Built like a snap together toy
Product review: Skip on this one please and avoid some frustration. I have lost to many brownie points with the Mrs. due to her frustration with it. I purchased this vacuum based on consumer reports ratings. I beg to disagree with their assessment of this unit. No Joke when I say it reminds me of a snap together toy that you have to put together every time you want to use it. The hose collapsed when on and you have to 'unkink' it. I cannibalized another vacuum for a poor fit for the hose but is better than the old one. The power cord is annoyingly short. The blue cover for the bag holder busts easy (the two little plastic prongs are the weak point on the bottom of it) so be gentle. Presently it is being held together by giant rubber bands. Oh yeah.. most of the attachments are lost/misplaced because the 'holder' on the unit lets them fall out a lot. The belt is a pain in the butt to replace/comes off and you need a screwdriver (it has frequently just 'comes off')
