Better is not! After several years of cheap vacuum cleaners, I have now decided on this Mercedes. First impression: Could not be better! These things are of absolute advantage: -long cable -verstellbares suction tube -ultrastarke suction -Turbobürste - Recommended for all rugs (long pile rugs except) -super parking positions (fits in each laundry room) -many suction levels adjustable -wahnsinnig good suction -super maneuverable vacuum cleaner -Staubsaugerbeutel Quite large and hardly suction loss at full bag Note: one with a thousand stars Conclusion: If you want a really good vacuum cleaner, do not need a 1000 Euro.
