This particular unit we have gets five stars. Unfortunately other units like this one I’ve owned gave up the ghost far too early.

Why did I get another after having problems with them in the past? There are three reasons. First off I got a heck of a sale on my new one plus free shipping. Secondly and I guess most importantly is the fact that when these units do work they work very,very,well. Had they not worked well no sale would ever tempt me to buy another. THIRDLY I have allergies to dust and mold. The HEPA filter works very well on this vac and does even better if you use the special allergen filtration bags.

To tell the truth the reason the other vacs did not last for me is the fact that my son treats them like super heavy duty, 4 wheel drive, all terrain, goes over any obstacle vacuum cleaners.

Will my new one last?? Only time will tell.
