I found it much quieter than my old vacuum cleaners, for a draw that I did nothing wrong (used so far a dozen times). Its main assets quality / price ratio that made me choose: - The most: relatively quiet, very good suction on hard floors, good air quality (according to the manufacturer), relatively low energy report - The least: it seems that it is bad on carpet. Me it not shocked me but I've only used as entrance mats, I have no carpet. In any case in this price range is the only one I've found that has such good ratings in the areas "most". German quality?
