Have used this vacuum for years at two houses....Excellent for quick touch ups between central vacuum deep cleans....I have 2 batteries and do change out halfway thru...I have long hair so yearly I have to turn this upside down and clean up the brush roll with scissors and cut all the hair away...I've probably purchased 4 or 5 of these in the last 20 years...I want another one to keep downstairs in my office area....Cordless biggest plus....Glad to see they still make & sell something that works good....
