I have to agree. I vacuum every single day because I have ocd really bad and it picks up so much stuff. The suction power is amazing. And I love how I can take it outsid and us it to vacuum my car out as well. And cleaning the filter is about as easy as you can get. And the fact that it costs hundreds less than an overpriced dyson makes it even better of a vacuum.Shark without a doubt. My wife bought one late summer and the thing is remarkable. Every time she uses it, multiple times a week, the collector is the proof in the pudding as it gets the job done FAR better than the old Panasonic. She likes its ease of moving under and around things too. She could do a commercial for the company as her response to it is, "best vacuum I have owned in my 64 yrs on this earth"
