the product is not too noisy despite its advertised 78 db better than the old "ADN" from Philips; it is quite manageable and relatively light (5 kg), sufficiently long cable, the correct quality brush (often overlooked accessory) for easy use as well on tiles, parquet or carpet; However, be careful when you order new bags, you are oriented toward the purchase model "classic long performance" S.bag which, while being compatible, does not have the capacity of 5l delivered original bag ; you have to order the model E 210B "ultra long performance" of S.bag
