Very powerful suction, does the job well.

It is NOT a *telescoping* wand. It's just two shorter extensions, and all friction fits. This means that the extension assembly falls apart on a pretty regular basis, which is loud and annoying but not the end of the world. I bought a different, telescoping wand to replace it.

Also bought a different floor brush based on other reviews, and I'm glad I did. The one that comes with it is cheap and stiff and has almost no padding for use on hardwood floors.

The thing that attaches to the hose (that you hold when vacuuming) has a crook in it that can get clogged fairly easily. I've learned to always check the whole hose and assembly for clogs before assuming that the bag needs to be replaced.

Really lightweight, which is great. The cord-wrapping mechanism is pretty much useless; I just coil up the cord and leave it next to the vacuum.

Yes, it's loud. My cats don't like it. But they contribute plenty to the messes I have to clean up with it.

Overall, I'm very happy with it. For the low price, I don't mind having to replace the accessories, given that the vacuum itself is very good.
