Customer Review: Don't waste your time.
Summary: 1 Stars
We've had this vacuum for less than a year and it has broken 3 times. The belt seems to be the problem. Sometimes the budget buy is not worth the frustration.Customer Review: what a buy, and a fabulous vacuum as well!
Summary: 5 Stars
This vacuum was for my mom who, when her old canister vacuum broke down, thought you had to go to a vacuum store such as Kirby, etc to get something decent. When I found out she ended up paying over $300.00 for one such vacuume, (and she is a senior on a limited budget!), I told her to take it back, and I will help her find a good one for only a fraction of the cost. I did a lot of research on vacuum ratings, and found out this one has a high rating. When you weight the great price, ratings and the fact you get FREE shipping, it was a no-brainer! Well, mom loves it, says the suction is excellent, and is easy for her to assemble and use. She could not believe you get get such a good vacuum for such a low price, and has now entrusted me to order additional items as she needs them via the net. Mom gives this vac an A+Customer Review: Not reliable

This vacuum worked well on carpets for the first 15 or so times we used it. It never worked at all on my bare floors, even though it has a "bare floor" setting. After only a couple of months, it just died. From the other reviews I've read here on Amazon, I'm going to assume it needs a new belt, which isn't too major but shouldn't happen after only a few months of use. Customer Review: Happy and Clean
Summary: 5 Stars
This vacuum is a great deal for the price. As long as you replace parts as needed (mine didn't need any parts for the first year and a half and then a new belt cost about $2) it works great.Customer Review: Good Vac If The Belt Would Stay On.

This vac rocked. I rate the performance at 5 stars -- I LOVED THIS VACUUM! It did a really good job at getting what our POS Dirt Devil didn't. I was impressed with the ease of use and the ease of dumping the dust bin which filled fairly quickly since our last vac was a Dirt Devil. Wife wife, who is pregnant, loved this vacuum cause it was light and did a really good job.
Until. (Zero (0) star part)
She was vacuuming some pretty short carpet in my sons rooms and the thing started to smoke. I got the call at work from her. She was afraid the thing was starting on fire and it was spitting hot pieces of plastic all over her feet. I told her to put in on the patio out back just to make sure until I got home. When I got home I found that the belt had migrated off of the beater bar/brush bar and was burning into the plastic on the bottom of the vacuum. A little disheartening because the vacuum was only 24 days old.
The wrap-up. Although I loved this vacuum and its excellent performance; the fact that it was spitting hot melted plastic all over the carpet and my wifes' feet made me dislike it even more than I liked it. If you are going to buy this vacuum make sure you buy an extended warranty so that you can bring it back.
