Didn't match description.

Very disappointed in product description vs actual product. Had standard attachments, not motorized pet attachment, no hard floor duster...went to Kohls, bought same exact model, same price and it contained all advertised attachments.

Wonderful vacuum with amazing suction and power!!

Edit - 12/2/18: I still love this vacuum! It functions as well as it did on day one, and cleaning the filters every month is super easy. Being bagless, I love that you don’t have to keep buying things as you go. Also, I just got new, high pile, thick shag rugs a few weeks ago, and I was a little worried they would snag on this vacuum because of the reviews some people left on the rug site, but I haven’t had any problems with this vacuum! I just use the first setting and don’t stay too long in one spot. When I want to get trickier things like dog hair off the rugs, I use the special motorized pet attachment and it works really well without snagging the rug at all. You won’t be disappointed with this vacuum! The one thing that is a little annoying is the crevice tool sometimes falls off if you’re jostling around the vacuum a lot (which you will, because this thing is so flexible and goes everywhere), so just make sure to really stick it on there when you put it back. I also love how easily everything comes apart and new attachments slide on. Everything glides and fits so well, and it feels sturdy. I vacuum once or twice a day because of my dog’s double coat, so it really has stood the test of time. I would definitely buy this vacuum again if I had to! Original - 6/26/17: Omg, I didn't think it was possible but I am in LOVE with this vacuum cleaner. I'm the type of person who painstakingly researches all of my purchases before going through with them, and this vacuum was no exception. The reviews were great but this vacuum surpassed my expectations. It is light enough to be able to vacuum comfortably but it packs some serious sucking power. I used to have an inexpensive handheld before I got my American Eskimo Dog, and it showed to be no match for his extreme shedding. I was stressing out because a lot of models, even specifically pet ones, had many negative reviews about the hair getting caught and having to stop and remove it several times each vacuuming session. This product has been amazing and I've never had a problem with anything, especially hair getting caught. I also have long hair (to approximately my mid-back) that winds up everywhere... Sometimes I wonder how I have any left on my head. This vacuum picks everything up like a champ. I clean the roller after every session just to ensure there aren't any problems but it really isn't even necessary. I have a 650 square foot apartment with tile (kitchen and bathroom), laminate flooring everywhere else, and several area rugs (two of them are thick, shaggy ones that my dog loves to lounge on). The True Pet motorized attachment cleans them like brand new in a matter of minutes. You'll be amazed (and maybe horrified) at what it picks up from carpet/rugs. I empty the canister twice per session when I vacuum the whole apartment, which is great considering how much it picks up. I can't even begin to tell you how pleasant it is to do everything with this vacuum. Moving it, swapping out attachments, and even detaching the handheld top portion to use by itself is a dream. Everything glides in and out so smoothly. I had to struggle with my previous vacuum to attach the various pieces which was really frustrating and led to chipped nails and an annoying experience. It also overheated several times during each session and would shut itself off, so I couldn't clean the whole apartment with it at once. This model never overheats or loses power. You don't realize how much little things like that matter until you have something better. The vacuum has two suction settings: powerful and tornado (not really but you'll see how strong it is). It is not too loud though which is really nice. It also has washable filters so paired with the bagless canister, you don't have to waste money replacing these items. The close to $200 price tag seemed a little high to me at first, but after looking around and seeing how high other models go and compared to how amazing this one is, I can't imagine myself using anything else. It makes it a joy to clean. It stores nicely either on the floor (you remove the top handheld portion and hook it on the bottom) or there is a wall attachment. It takes up very little floor space and honestly, it looks nice so you won't mind if it is visible. There are also lights on both the main floor attachment and the handheld attachment which are amazing. You can see all the little dirt and debris and can even vacuum in the dark if you want to (when picking up dog hair it's actually almost easier to do so in the dark because of how well these lights work, especially at angles). This vacuum will not disappoint you.

Powerful, effective vacuum for removing pet hair from any surface

I absolutely love this thing! Powerful, effective vacuum for removing pet hair from any surface. This is so easy to use, lightweight, yet powerful suction. The ability, flexibility is amazing when articulating on the floor, around objects and under furniture--it is amazing! There is nothing like it. I've owned two Dyson's, and, I wish I had ALL of my money back--WHY? So I could purchase more of these and put them on each floor of my home. This thing is powerful, cleans up German Shepard hair like crazy; misses nothing and is so easy to clean it's scary. Ergonomically intuitive and simple. Clean all the filters with the push of a single button and can be washed at the kitchen sink and left to dry between uses. I mean this--this is my new favorite house cleaning toy.

Great at first, but not in the long term.

At first I loved this vacuum. It's light weight and worked great on bare floor and carpet, switching easily between the two. However, I've had this a year and I need a new vacuum once again. It stopped working well about 6 months ago, and I've had to adapt using other devices to clean. It is useless on bare floor (I use my $40 Bissell sweeper and a broom instead), and carpet is pretty mediocre. The wand/attachments are also useless as the suction is not there unless using it on carpet. I have taken it apart and cleaned this thing as much as I possibly can, and it still shoots back dust/dirt and cat litter that was already sucked up and does and does not improve suction. I also cannot stand how I have to lean it up on something or set it on the floor instead of it just standing on its own. I have cats and this is NOT good for cat hair. It gets clogged so easily. I would recommend getting a different vacuum if you have pets. Maybe it would be okay if you don't have hair to deal with, and may work better longer.

I have a professional cleaning business. This vacuum is the best! Converts quickly from hard floors to carpets and don't have to change head. Great on stairs. Great on carpets. Great on hard floors. Edges really well. Quickly to move power head to just use wand for cobwebs by pressing with your foot. Lightweight. No battery to charge! (I was trying to charge 4 Dyson stick vac batteries before to make it through the day). I LOVE this vacuum. As others have said, it sucks really well and you have to frequently empty out the bin. Also, because it sucks so well, the brush roll gets more hair wrapped around it than any other vacuum I've had. (But cutting off the hair is a 3 minute job I do once a week for my business). Best vacuum I have ever owned (And I have been a Dyson snob for years!)

It does NOT include the pet roller, the wood floor tool nor the pad!!

I was loving it for the first 15 min. When I was trying the different tools I realized it didn’t come the pet tool, hardfloor wood cleaner or pad!! I have all wood floors and two large rugs but the main reason I got it was for the pet tools!! When I moved on to the next rug, the light turned red for no reason so I stopped and checked to see what was stuck but there was nothing..I removed the few hairs in the rollers and continued.. but no green light, no red light no movement in the rollers. I literally just got it today!!! So disappointed. Returning this item.
