I bought this vacuum based on the reviews of this site, and I am so glad I did! When I got there, they were out of stock! Luckily, their truck just arrived with a brand new shipment.
I tried the Healthy Home vacuum in the store and it didn't suck up anything! Then I tried the pet hair eraser model on Best Buy's rug and it made it look brand new!
I assembled it myself and read the instructions within an hour. Then I used it and also had to empty the container after finishing with just one room because there was so much hair our 8 year old (now dead) hoover vacuum didn't suck up. I'm not fond of bagless vacuum's however. I do not want to deal with the dirt after it's been sucked up. Everything seems to be bagless these days and this vacuum's bagless container and emptying is not too bad. If it causes a mess, I just vacuum it up. I also find that I have to vacuum the vacuum afterwards because of all the hair/dirt we had.
The tools are awesome! The turbo tool is a little tough popping it out, but I used it on my couch and my couch is admittedly a different color! (as in the pet hair is gone) The other flexible/rubber type tool is great for curtains, stairs and those in between crevices on my chair cushion button holes (where cat hair collects).
The best part was we got this vacuum for it's advertised price at the time (around $150) and then we bought the one year warranty for an extra $20 and it still was less expensive than the other models.
I don't really do reviews, but I had to come on here and thank others for their reviews so that I could do my homework before going out and buying one.
What's great about it: suction, tools
What's not so great: bagless is always messy, a little loud, heavier
