Not bad, about what you’d expect,
I have been using an upright for my carpet and a canister w/ smooth floor attachment for my wood floors. I got the Duros and here are the negative things I noticed:
1) On smooth floors it is more cumbersome to move the big beater bar head (with the beater bar turned off) around than a light smooth floor attachment.
2) On carpet, the canister has a shorter cord than the upright and you have to drag the canister behind you.
The positives are:
1) I’ve got one vaccum instead of two.
2) I don’t have to change heads to go from smooth floor to a rug or from the carpet to a bathroom with a tile floor, just turn off the beater bar.
3) I can go all the way under the couches, chairs and beds because the handle goes all the way down to the floor.
4) I does a fine job, other than getting used to moving it around, and it was cheaper than each of the vaccums it was replacing that are a few years (10 years) older.
5) The hair cutter we have attaches to a vaccum to suck up the hair as it’s being cut. The hair cutter works on the new vaccum and feels like it pulls harder than the old one.

|I didn’t think I liked canister vacuums,
I bought one because we have both wood floors and carpeting. This machine does a great job on both. It’s much more powerful than I imagined it would be. While the canister is heavy, you’re really only dealing with the much lighter handle. Even the stairs are easier. I’ve had bagless versions, and frankly, I’d rather not deal with the mess. The bag acts as a filter, so you’re changing the filter everytime you change the bag. I’ve heard that the canister style lasts longer. We have two long-haired fur balls at home, so we usually burn out a vacuum cleaner in a year. The upright models designed so that the mess doesn’t go anywhere near the motor run about $500. The bags are available here and at about a hundred web sites on-line. Don’t look for it at your grocers though.

|solid built, powerful and user-friendly.,
my wife had been looking around, for a good while at different styles and types of vacuums. she has tried the bagless styles and was very displeased with them. after many considerations (oreck, kirby and etc.), she chose to try this one. after using it for several weeks, she has stated that she was very glad that we bought his one. i, myself, was totally surprized at the quality of this hoover. it’s very well built (not flimsy like most other vacuums at this price), very easy to move around, and has very strong suction power. my wife likes the way that the wands fit together easily, without the cord being in the way (the cord that dangles from most vacuums with the power nozzles) and the fact that you don’t have to change one nozzle to another (rug to bare floor) to finish vacuuming, just push the bar from rug to floor and it’s done. the only thing that my wife didn’t care for was that two of the attachements tools are stored on the wand, which does at times, come off when bumped against something. But other then that, she is very happy with this vacuumm. we have many pets (six all together) that are inside which my wife has to vacuum at least four to five times a week (with all the shedding) and she feels that this vacuum will do the job for a long time (we average about a vacuum every 2 years due to the constant use). over all, with it’s sturdy built, power, and user-friendly abilities, we give this vacuum 5 stars!!!!!michael and penny smith
