It's only been two weeks but already I like the canister vacuum vs our old upright unit. I could never easily vacuum under furniture, beds, etc., but now the reach is terrific. This unit's low profile head gets under mostly every piece of furniture. No more hands and knees cleaning, nor moving tables and chairs or other furniture to get at those pesky dust bunnies!
Kenmore reliable, and easy to use. telescopic hose is a joy to use and easy to set. My old one lasted more than 20 years and this one is nearly it's twin.
Great vacuum. I did buy an after market bare floor brush though because the brush that comes with the attachments is very small. Good suction and very light weight.
