The price / performance ratio is super. Laugsaugen and straw works well, it is not a top model but with a little practice it works well. The noise is very limited, even without earplugs bearable. What I noticed is when too much foliage is sucked at a time and the leaf trap bag is almost full, then there is a blockage. It must then be switched off and the device leaves the collection bag be done, but this goes without tools. Then you can see the constipation eliminated. With a little practice you can prevent constipation. As stated by previous speakers, the material of the leaf trap bag is not the best, already by a second use showed cracks. But thanks to the quality customer service then I got offered a replacement bag. That's why I could give 5 points.
