This vacuum had such promise. I loved the fact that it had a larger opening to suck up larger items and that the brush was attached, so it could not be lost. Ultimately I bought it for those features, in addition to the specs and brand. I love the Sanitaire line of compact canisters and thought this would be a great upright machine.
On the positive side, the suction works very well, it appears to be designed well, the bag system inside is VERY clean, it runs fairly quiet and I like that it has a dual motor system for going from carpet to hardwood.
Unfortunately the flaws cannot be ignored. This machine is heavy. It is almost 30 pounds with the cord. It isn't self-propelled and is a little hard to push. The wheels make a lot of noise on bare floors, almost enough to where I worry that they may cause damage. You have to change the suction flow to use the attachment, which is at the BOTTOM of the machine. For home use this may not be a big deal, but in a commercial environment where you are switching often, it is a problem. One of the biggest shocks for me was the realization that while it is great to have the retractable dust brush, it is the only attachment that can be used with the machine. A phone call to Sanitaire later I learned they didn't even make attachments for the unusual 1 5/8 size of the vacuum hose. I realize this is a commercial machine, but no ability for even an upholstery brush? Bad move Sanitaire!
I was pretty disappointed with the flaws in this machine. I would have happily paid more for a machine this durable without all the flaws.
