overall good, but some weak points
overall happy with this hoover. very strong suction, and good battery life. easy to set up, easy to empty (good size container as well), easy to clean the brush (clever mechanism to pop it out), easy to operate (just 1 switch). looks stylish.
the negatives, at speed 1, the brush is off, and 2 and 3 brush is on no matter what. would be nice to have on/off brush button/option. at speed 2, the suction is very strong, almost too strong, so it gives a lot of resistance on carpet trying to move it around (you can see the whole carpet being pulled up). good for catching dust and dog hair, bad for your muscles. the swivel on the head is very loose, so can be difficult to control, also when you put it upright, it can easy fall over. lastly, at speed 2, the brush stops sometimes, and you have to turn off and on to get it back spinning (and this is not a case where it is tangled). a bit too heavy to use for stairs, and the attachments are a lot of faffing about to get on.
end of story, I would still buy it again for a great price due to how well it cleans.
