I will not speak of the assembly since it is my husband who took care of it, but from what I saw, assembly was super simple, very "intuitive", at least I did have not seen consult the user manual. So a superb complement to vacuum, exactly what I wanted. I use it during the week until my "homemaker" (maid), after the meal, or an accident on my carpet. His power amazes me: 2000 W The brush is motorized and very effective! I was so surprised with the result ... I did "steal" never the canister vacuum of my housekeeper, but the Philips I keep it. So this will not replace the aspi aspi-sled. A little heavy, but the 2 wheels help to perfect glide. This is my second "no bag" and I wouldnt be happy aspi "bagged"
Yes it is expensive but I took advantage of a "flash Christmas offer" is 157
