So far, I'm really liking this vacuum. My intention was to replace my two old upright vacuums with this one battery-powered one. I needed the two vacuums because my older Dyson had too much suction for the carpet in this house, so I had to buy a second vacuum with a height adjustment. At this point, I'm just enjoying moving from hard floor to carpet to rugs with this little guy. I love the swivel feature also. Hopefully I will be down to just this one after it's proven itself a little more! PS I've also seen lots of negative comments about having to use the trigger to operate it. That's how every other battery-powered tool we have operates, since it conserves the battery life. It just took me a little while to get used to the feel.

My v11 absolute was wonderful but the motor just recently died so purchased the V 11 that was on sale. Suction power is great and love that this one also has the screen to display runtime and has 3 power levels. It's lightweight and easy to maneuver.

I bought this after returning from a visit at West visiting my son-in-law who owned one totally fell in love with it had to get one as soon as I got home I love how convenient it is to go up and down from one floor of my house to the other, it’s light and easy to carry. It works great love it.
