I am very happy with my Lupe cordless vacuum. I wish the battery life was longer, but I know that is a larger problem beyond just this vacuum. It is sufficient for me and how I vacuum my large condominium. Due to the rechargeable battery, it is a little heavy for my wife to use. She has significant physical issues so this is not a major problem for most people. It is a well made vacuum machine and cleans very well. I do believe the hose needs to be a little more compliant as it is a bit too stiff, IMHO. Even with the above criticisms, it is a very good vacuum and I highly recommend it. It is very nice to have a vacuum up for any chore in a house that isn't connected to the wall by a cord.
