I would give 4 stars if i could.It works fine, sucks like crazy!I must empty the dirt cup after each use andbang out the filter. There is no need to go crazycleaning the filter. It will be messy two secs after youturn it on again.The attachments work well. the only gripe i have is the attachmentsattach to the unit so low its very difficult to use them foranything at eye level or above. Ive tried putting the uniton a chair to raise it but this scares me as an accident waiting to happen but otherwise a fine purchase. And ive had it several months and it still works well.
