This lightweight upright delivers strong suction and a brushroll that genuinely stays free of tangled hair, even in homes with long human hair or heavy pet shedding. The trade-off is a shorter-than-expected power cord that mounts low on the machine, making it a bit of a hassle to manage during long cleaning sessions.
Loved by buyers
- •The self-cleaning brushroll lives up to its promise, keeping long hair and fur from wrapping around the roller.
- •Powerful suction pulls up embedded dirt and pet dander that other vacuums leave behind.
- •Lift-away pod detaches easily for cleaning above-floor spots like furniture and stairs.
Buyer concerns
- •The power cord is noticeably shorter than many uprights and attaches near the base, so it tends to get in the way.
- •Only one onboard tool storage clip, meaning you will likely misplace the other attachments.
- •In lift-away mode, the lack of a powered brushroll makes it less effective on carpeted stairs.
