Had the lupe a while now. Won’t comment on addons, depends how you use them. Main body has exepternal pick up. Light, stands upright well. Use it mostly on setting two. On some carpets I can’t move it on setting three. Picks up pile well. Once use to waist bin, easy flips open. + can remove filter and black vortex. To give a good clean. I have two dogs and one is a German shepherd. Well pleased. I had a fault on mine after a few weeks. Silk seal came away from the cleaning head. Emailed lupe. Reply within a few hours. Saying manufacturing fault. Sent new part and asked if I was able to fit as it was only two screws. All sorted and part arrived two days later. Everything looks so easy to replace. Picks up dog hairs and fine particles. All I can say on pick up power is, wow !!! I live in a two bed bungalow only use setting three now and then. Never ran out of power yet. I vacuum more often as it’s so light and easy. I have put it through it’s paces and am very happy with my perchase and customer service. Tks lupe. My last vacuum had a cord and a ball. And likes animals.
