Unfortunately it is very noisy and not so powerful. (However, may be OK for someone.... It's not bad. But it simply not the most powerful unit)  I return the item and ended up purchase sears Kenmore vacuum cleaner for $49.  (It was on sale)  It is more powerful.  But  I didn't realized that Kenmore bag was very expensive.  3 sets for $8.  So, what you paid is what you get is the correct statement here.
