This is good a product. I purchased it at 65$. It is a worth buy. I will recommend it others at the price i purchased. This is my first vac. in USA.

I absolutely love this vacuum. Cleans beautifully and doesn't clog. I'm glad we purchased it. Great deal on Amazon.com as well. The vacuum is quite heavy but I'm willing to take that since it works so beautifully.

SECOND PANASONIC VACUUM WE HAVE OWNED, THIS ONE IS A BIT ON THE HEAVY SIDE.THIS MODEL HAS PLENTY OF POWER AND SUCTION, NICE ON BOARD TOOLS AS WELL.SO FAR WE ARE HAPPY WITH THE PURCHASE,CANT BE THE PRICE...QUALITY MATERIALS USED FOR CONSTRUCTION.DOES A GREAT JOB ON CARPET AND ON BARE FLOORS,EVEN WITH 2 DOGS.

O.K., I thought my old vacuum worked, I mean the bag got full some how. I used to sell Rainbows, so I know vacuums don't "really" work. But I figured my $150.00 regular vacuum did an O.K. job. We just bought a home that had previously had 3 children living here with parents who must not have cared about their place. It was filthy when we were finally able to move in. We bought a new Hoover carpet cleanerfrom amazon, which is awesome and this Panasonic cleaner. The vacuum works as well as a vacuum can. I am almost embarassed to say that it doesn't take long for the cannister to fill up. When it is full of dirt, it lets you know. It's easy to empty, I recommend doing it outside in the trash can. The dirt sensor works, all the attachments work well. I like the cleaner a lot. One of the reviewers prior had some cons dealing with it being top heavy. It is a bit. I just make sure I lean iy uo against the wall when I am finished. Also, the cord isn't as long as most cleaners. I attach a small extension cord if I need one. Remember, it winds up the cord for you, so It can't be that long. We paid $65.86 for it. WHAT A BUY!

Pro:This vacuume is a great unit for cleaning. It cleans all types dirts (hair, dust, etc,...)from deep and edges. Big bag stores more dust so no need to empty very often.
Con: Very heavy unit so kids don't like to operate. Sometimes the hand vacuume stops while operating or clogged.
Overall very good unit for this price except weight and hand vacuum operation.
