Good for floors - forget the hose though.

This is a very nice vacuum. I purchased mine at Home Depot and it didn't come with the additional brush (multi-floor roller), which was advertized on the packaging - same as this listing on Amazon. So be sure to check yours.

The vacuum itself seems very well made. The cordless feature is excellent, and took some getting used to after pulling a cord around for the past 30 years on other vacuums. It picks up dirt and seems to do that just as well as my larger, heavier, corded model.

The downsides:
Cordless is neat, and not having to replug it when you change rooms or drag the cord around is a nice change of pace. However, this also means two things: 1 - you have to plan your vacuuming to make sure your batteries are recharged. This can of course be done by simply plugging it in after each use, to ensure that it's charged for the next use. 2 - You have to store and charge the batteries somewhere. Not a big deal, but something to keep in mind if you're trying to de-clutter.

The big negative, and reason for one star deduction, is the hose. The hose unplugs from the base of the vacuum, and plugs into the detachable handle. Seems OK... but if you are trying to vacuum your couch or some other normal function of what we all use the hose on a vacuum for, this is just an awkward arrangement. First of all, the hose originates at the floor, coming out near the base of the vacuum. Meaning, it'll tip the thing over if you pull it too far. And you WILL pull it too far - it's a very short hose.

My advice, keep your regular vacuum for taking care of the sofa and whatever else you are accustomed to vacuuming. Keep this light weight cordless model for the floors.

Good, but not perfect.

The large floor/tile brush is plastic and continues to fall off the metal wand.  The vacuum has great suction and does the job, its not a light vacuum to carry up steps to vacuum as you go.  The machine has a hard time to roll over its own cord while you vacuum the floor and causes canister to flip over.  There is a great long hose to give you flexibility to work under furniture.  Don't recall any attachments like dusting brush, or crevice tools in the box. Easy clean out container.

This vacuum is only good for small spaces or on hard floors; not carpet! The canister rolls fine, but the floor nozzle does not roll back and forth on carpet. It has good suction, but it takes me twice as long and twice as much energy to vacuum a room.

I like it and it does the job.  I don't have carpet and this really picks up a lot of dust and everything else.  The suction is very strong and you won't have any problem picking up anything on the floor.  It is small, compact and great if you don't have a whole lot of space for storage.  Another neat little feature is the automatic cord rewind button.  This machine is designed for floors and not carpets.  You can use it on a small area but anymore than that, you should buy a real vacuum.  BUT, there is a couple of really annoying features about the way this is designed.  First, the hose keeps falling apart.  I don't know if it was just my machine that is lose on the hose connections but it's super annoying.  Second, you can't tell which button is the on/off and which is the cord.  You have to look really hard to see which buttons to push.  And one little thing...it is loud...personally I don't mind it.  But if you're expecting a quiet machine, this is not it.

This is not a vacuum to use for whole rooms of carpet.  It works well for throw rugs and small areas, such as carpeted stairs.

Does a decent to good job on floors, the floor attachment seems to be picking up all the dirt and debri on the floor with no problems. Small and compact but will cause tall people abit of bending down as another reviewer mentioned. I didn't mind it as much for a 850 ft apartment. I do feel the cord is abit shorter than standard ones as I had to connect it in various outlets throughout the apt to finish the floors completely. Suction seems good with all attachments. The carpet attachment worked fine in the bedroom as well as on a living room square rug.

The stand bye button on the grip is nice and I found myself using it alot when i needed to move furniture and chairs around. The retractable cord is nice for storing. Speaking of that, upright storage is convenient but I can possible see the hose craking once its upright after afew month. I may just unplug the hose from the main canister when storing.

Overall I'm happy with this sleek non cheap feeling canister vac :)  Only real con is the length of the tube attachment (I'm 6' 2"). Wish it was at least 8-10 more inches.

This is the 3rd floor steamer I have owned.  The first was a Eureka Enviro-steamer - had it for several years and loved it - then it broke.  They don't seem to make them anymore.  Next I bought a  Lysol steam-mop.  Don't bother.  It's a glorified Swiffer.  Flimsy, water us barely hot - not really steam, very short cord, and every time I filled it it would promptly relieve itself on the floor.  Junk.

Then I bought the Monster.  It's very much like the Enviro-steamer.  Light comes on when steam is ready.  Cool feature is that the steam only comes out when you lower the handle.  Steam is hot and does a great job on my tile floors.  The cord is longer than most other steamers.  The water heats in just a few minutes and I can steam about 1500 sf of tile in 2 fills of the tank - and steaming is way faster than mopping.  Yes - you do have to vacuum or sweep first.  This isn't meant to pick up debris.  And yes - there is a 'steamy' scent as you mop - but it goes away pretty quickly.

The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because it is supposed to do light steam cleaning on carpets too (with the sledge) but it did nothing on my carpets and it doesn't get under the cabinets too well due to the height of the boiler.  Oh well.  Minor stuff for an overall great floor cleaner.

Good replacement vac if you already have extra wands & attachments.  The price is great and this vacuum does a very good job on wood & tile floors (don't have carpet so can't comment on that). The only drawback is that it comes with a short hose, only a single wand and most of the attachments are ridiculous.  If you've previously owned canister vacs and have saved wands, hoses & attachments its a perfect replacement. If its your first vac you'll want to purchase the accessories.  I guess the cheap accessories are a way to keep the price low  Like it enough to order a second one to use upstairs.

I've used a Hoover upright for a few years. It's the Hoover 5507-900 auto-rewind unit, and it rocks, and I love it. On a lark, I thought I'd try out this "dead dog" - named such since you have to drag around the vacuum part behind you as you sweep up, just like a...(don't worry, I love dogs, and I didn't come up with it!) I prefer the Hoover greatly for several reasons, but I'll focus on the pros/cons of this model:

Pros:
- Decent suction. Not spectacular, but it does a good job cleaning up our hardwood floors
- The head rolls very easily
- Decent length cord at 25', but I'd have loved to have seen 30'
- The expandable tube. Brilliant! I can now get the cobwebs without fussing with ladders or standing on chairs. Where have you been all my life?

Cons:
- The dog part is really hard to move! It's not as bad as the ANCIENT electrolux my mom gave me a few years ago, nor it is nearly as big, but surely someone could put multi-directional wheels on this part?
- The hose crimps up easily. The ol' Electrolux had a hose that just wouldn't bend. This one does, easily, and that stops it sucking. Not cool.
- Barely any tools. The main handle is nice but I'd like some options, folks!
- It doesn't do a great job on hardwood floors. It may work better on carpet, but I've got none at my house to try it with. Lots of little dog hairs seem to escape its grasp on the hardwood.

Overall, I prefer the convenience of use and storage with an upright. If I were smaller or less strong, this might be a good alternative, but the upright just works better for us.

My cleaning lady raves about this, so I bought one for the downstairs to replace an aged Eureka canister.  It is screaming loud-I had to get my construction ear protectors out of the garage to continue vacuuming.  If your carpet is at all plush, it is hard to push, which also means it has great suction.  It does collect plenty of cat hair, kitty litter and kibble crumbs; the cup is easy to empty and a pain to line up right to re-install.  One downside for me is that unlike the power head on a canister, this thing can't go under beds or any but the tallest furniture.  Auxiliary hose very short and awkward to use, mostly sort of useless.  Would be ok for a small apartment, holiday rental unit or someone who doesn't have pets, and is a good value for the price.  If you really need a good all-around vacuum, you're better off spending  bigger bucks on a more versatile machine.

I have a carpet floor but I didn't intend to have this product to replace my vacuum cleaner. For light floor surface cleaning, rather than uncoiling the cord of my vacuum cleaner - I just pull this out (sweeper) and start running over (to pick up) lint fibers, bits of papers, small beads, wrapper debris, and others similar to it. And it works fine. Of course, for deeper cleaning, use vacuum.

My rating is four star otherwise five. The only reason to be four star is the size (kind of big) which is not really a big deal for me for it serves the purpose of why I bought it. But pricewise, it is five star. There is a similar product made by rubbermaid which is smaller but the price is twice. At any rate, be careful with the handle - either Bisell or Rubbermaid or other similar products.

Well, I have to wait for more than four months so I can give a better review about  this product.

Its great for all the little spots your pet leaves, and the heavy traffic areas but I wouldn't want to use it on the whole floor. You'd be sucking the carpet dry for days.

I recently returned this item.  It does clean the floors very well, but that's all.  The attachments have one problem, they go on the end of the rather bulky mop.  With the exception of the regular mop attachment, you have no way to rest the mop in an upright position you have to lay the thing down.  They have video of it being used to clean shower walls, doors, countertops and so on, but what they neglect to show you is how much of a pain it is to hold that entire thing to perform those tasks.  And because of the length of it, tight areas like a shower would be impossible.  IF you want something just for the floor and nothing else, this thing is amazing.  But if you want more, I would get something else.

Suction and cleaning are good.  I wish I had paid closer attention to reviews that mentioned the very short attachment hose.  VERY annoying and cumbersome.  I literally have to pick the whole unit up to use the attachment hose for anything more than 3 feet high.  As floor carpet cleaner it is satisfactory to good, if you have lots of attachment work...do NOT buy this unit.

I live in a 3 story house with mostly hardwood floors.  This hand vac has been great for slurping up the dust that accumulates on the staircases and for picking up lint and dust on ceramic tile in the bathrooms and laundry.  For dense carpeting, it's only so-so.  If you have mostly hard floor coverings, this unit should do the trick.

Our house is 100% hard floors (all polished travertine).  We have one large, relatively short height area rug.  The Miele canister vacuum line was hard to understand, but if I understood it correctly, there's basically a choice of small and large, and then powered-head or not.  The Pisces is the large canister without the powered head.  For a carpeted home, unless you can get rid of the carpet, I would suggest the powered head.  For valuable area rugs, I think you'd want to study how to deal with them.  Our area rug is not valuable, so I'm not particular about how the brush works.

For our hard floors, we use the parquet twister head which we had to buy separately.  We do use the included turbo head on the area rug and it seems to work fine for that.

The key thing is that we use a dust mop on a 24" frame, and we wet mop, so we vacuum less overall.  The parquet twister is only 16" wide and the included turbo brush is only 12" wide.  So if you have a lot of floor to vacuum, you'll be vacuuming for a long time with these little heads.  Our house is pretty small at well under 2000 square feet.  I think most people buying a vacuum in this price range will be planning on using it in a house 2000-3000 square feet and I would not want to vacuum that much carpet with a 12" head.  I don't really have suggestions how to deal with that much carpet, but I'm pretty sure this machine won't do the trick.

I find the power setting on this vacuum useless for floors.  I can appreciate that full power could be troublesome on draperies or something, but I can never see using less than full power on the floor.

The bag and filter on this vacuum seem to work very well.  I would not use any lesser.  Dust mopping cleans the floor faster, but not quite as well.  Add wet mopping for a better clean and only a little more work.  Mopping adds almost no dust to the air in the process, and (in the house) I simply would not use a vacuum that did, thereby creating a worse problem than the one it solves.

This vacuum is less noisy than inexpensive ones, but it's not exactly quiet.  It's quiet enough that I will use it without ear protection though.  Most vacuums with a universal motor are loud enough that I will.  My Ridgid shop vacuum and Eureka upright (both used outside the house) generate well over 80dB and can easily go over 85dB, which is considered a "dangerous" sound level and can cause hearing loss in as little as 8 hours exposure.  I have suffered hearing loss (from gunfire) and I don't want anyone else to.  You're safe with this vacuum, but it will still interrupt conversation or study.

I've had mine for a couple years now, and I found it to be a good product.  It's probably getting to be an obsolete model, and you might study the S6 and S8 series instead.

Vacuum is great, so long as you don't need to use the hose and attachments. The suction makes the hose stiff and unweildy. I use my old vacuum for fine cleaning in corners, between cushions, ect.
