I had the chance to try this vacuum. I find it very effective as well on carpets, parquet or tiles, even dust is removed where there are none :-) However I noticed some negative points (before Philips I had an Electrolux sled 10 years of age) * It is a bit noisy (my old aspi was super quiet I could spend when my son was sleeping) * It is a little heavy, * I do not find very clean of the dust into the receptacle. But despite all that good suction side is the top ... Me I am convinced !!!!
