Great, quieter and cheaper than my dirt devil who has held me 3 years. The design was different, the cardboard filter was in the middle of visible dust container and dirty all the time. For this one, after ten uses, no loss of suction. I opened the beast and is not filter in the central part of the tank (orange). My mother has the original model to over 250 euro and the design is almost none. The centrifugal force seems very effective. There is a foam filter in the upper part above the vortex and is clean home clean. Sure strength level is far from the true will, so tough that Da ... ty that does that well, does not distribute it. And yes you can not paste an extended warranty overpriced product on a guaranteed 5 years!
