I had a cheaper version of this a few years ago and it wasn't much good, but we read the reviews and opted for this one because our Henry hoover is quite heavy and a pain to drag around the house.
This upright is every bit as good as a wired vacuum. The suction is powerful (make sure you have it on the powerful setting) and the rotating brushes work well.
The brushes on both the main head and the small "pet head" are very well designed, meaning you can take the entire brush out to clean it and detanlge any hair that accumilates. The battery is 4Ah which is sufficient; though it doesn't last quite as long as the claim when you are using it on carpets. It is still ok though, and the battery comes out of the main unit easily so is easy to put on charge.
The vaccum is very light and easy to use. Plus the attatchments are easy to clip on and off.
The collector bin is quite small but this is also easy to take off and empty which you'll need to do every time you hoover the whole house. We haven't experienced any blockages yet, and I have accidentally sucked up quite a few large bits of wood, scrap carpet etc when fitting some flooring.
For the price I am pleased - it's true what they say, you get what you pay for. I had a 70 quid electrolux before this and it was rubbish, but this seems like money well spent. You can also mount it on a wall with the bracket provided, which is a good space saver.
