Great Vacuum w/ minor drawbacks.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don’t be fooled by the quiet motor. This thing SUCKS. I have all hardwood floors and I was hesitant that I’d need a soft roller attachment (sold separately). Not the case. This thing picked up so many fine particles and zero kickback from under it. The ONLY issues I have with are; 1) For 600 bucks it should have lights around the brush head area. 2) I have a 900sq ft apartment and the canister was almost completely filled, so for bigger homes and areas you’re gonna be emptying more frequently. 3) While the head of the roller isn’t self cleaning and hairs get caught around it, the roller is designed in such a way that you can just pull the hairs right off without the use of scissors or anything. All in all I’m happy with my purchase, it sold me on the fact I can switch heads and immediately mop rather than breaking the steam mop out of the closet. Just a one stop shop. I’m sure the next generations will have a bigger canister and light. But this is built to last. LG makes great products so I’m sure it’ll be a few years before I have to replace it, I hope.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I typically use this vacuum 2-3 days a week on About a 500 sq ft hard wood floor living space. This includes 3 long carpet runs as well a German shorthair pointer and a Yorkie. It has 3 speeds and 2 batteries that typically use both in there entirety. It’s usually plenty of power for the job. Excellent machine.

Great Machine Just a Little Heavy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a great machine. The only reason I can’t give it 5 stars is because it’s a little heavier than others when trying to use the head with upholstery attachments.

VIGOROUS VACUUM – MARVELOUS MOP – 2 BATTERIES
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The LG CordZero A9 Kompressor Stick Vacuum with Power Mop is an innovative evolution of the A9 stick vacuum product line. This model is not a “wet/dry” vacuum which is capable of ingesting both dry material and liquids (like shop vacuums typically do). The “wet” reference for this stick vacuum actually refers to the Power Mop attachment which operates with the vacuum motor turned off. The LG CordZero A9 Kompressor arrives very well packed and includes the vacuum motor power head, an aluminum telescoping extension wand (20” collapsed, 29.5” extended), a universal power nozzle (for carpet and bare floors), a combination tool (with removable brush), a crevice tool, a power mop attachment, a free-standing / wall mountable storage stand with integral battery charger, two lithium ion rechargeable batteries, four microfiber floor scrubbing pads (for the power mop), a brush for cleaning the dirt collection canister and motor housing, and a measuring cup with custom shaped spout for filling the water tank of the power mop. Assembly of the charging stand is straightforward, and LG provides a quantity of printed product documentation. The stand has a weighted base, which I found to be very stable. The stand may also be wall mounted. The hardware for wall attachment is included. Notably, all of the included components and accessories are accommodated on the charging stand! Even the mop pads and cleaning brush have a home. The combination tool and crevice tool attachments can be used with or without the telescoping extension wand, easily accommodating cleaning out of reach areas, as well as close-up cleaning tasks such as upholstered furniture. The telescoping wand provides four latching positions. All of the attachments easily snap together and latch securely. Cordless stick vacuums are particularly attractive and desirable for their light weight, easy maneuverability and superior convenience. The LG CordZero A9 Kompressor excels in those attributes. The vacuum weighs only 5.95 lbs, with most of the weight concentrated in the motor unit. The handle is large and comfortable. The thumb operated power on/off switch and motor speed control switches (+ / -) are conveniently located. Switches only require momentary depression and do not need to be held continuously during operation as some stick vacuums require. Both the power vacuum nozzle and power mop attachments are equipped with a ball-gimbal mount which affords outstanding maneuverability and directional control. The CordZero easily reaches under low furniture, and is easily maneuvered next to walls and furnishings for excellent edge cleaning. The power vacuum nozzle contains a motorized 9” brushroll which operates at all times for both carpeted and hard surface floors. A pair of small rollers facilitates movement on carpeting, but nevertheless, there are times when forward motion required additional physical effort. I found that a high angle of attack exacerbated that issue, and lowering the angle of the stick vacuum reduced the level of required effort. However, I also found that lowering the angle of attack often necessitates bending slightly to lower the handle/stick. This created an occasional annoyance. This issue does not result from the telescoping extension wand being too short. Rather, it is a product of the design of the leading edge of the of the power nozzle which can embed in carpet pile. LG provides a specification of 200 watts of suction power. If LG is actually describing an air watts rating, 200 watts is double the required 100 air watt standard for upright vacuums, and is only slightly below the 220 air watt standard for canister vacuums. I found the suction power to be more than adequate. The CordZero provides three motor speeds (power levels) labeled as Normal, Power and Turbo. The default, Normal mode proved to be extremely effective on both hard and carpeted surfaces. The Power and Turbo motor speeds reduce battery run-time and increase noise level. LG claims 60 minutes of operation (per battery) in Normal mode, 40 minutes in Power mode and 12 minutes in Turbo mode. The power unit of the vacuum has an LED display with 3 incremental bars for battery capacity. After 55 minutes of use, divided between vacuuming in Normal mode and power mop operation (single, non-adjustable operating speed), the LED displayed 2 bars of remaining battery capacity. I therefore believe that with the two included batteries, whole house cleaning is well within expectations. The lithium ion, batteries are 25.2 volt, 2.4 Ah / 60.48 Wh (2.3 Ah / 57.96 Wh minimum) capacity. Replacement batteries are expensive so they should be properly maintained. Battery charging is accommodated by charging one battery while attached to the vacuum motor unit as well as the second battery in the charging stand. Batteries are not charged simultaneously; they are charged sequentially. The charging stand first charges the battery which is attached to the vacuum, and upon completion, then charges the second battery in the stand. Each battery requires 3.5 – 4 hours to fully charge (7 – 8 hours to charge both batteries). Completion of charging of each battery is annunciated by LED indicators (3 incremental LED bars on the vacuum handle for attached battery, and a single LED on the charging stand for second battery). Completed charging of the primary battery is also annunciated by a push-notification to the available LG Thin-Q smartphone app. The built-in LED panel also shows the progress of charging, the need for filter cleaning, detection of a clogged vacuum flow-path and indicates if wi-fi is active. I already had the Thin-Q app installed on my LG smartphone. Nevertheless, it required four attempts to finally connect the vacuum with the app via wi-fi. The CordZero communicates only on 2.4GHz wi-fi. The Thin-Q app tracks usage of the CordZero by date and cleaning sessions, reporting total hours/minutes of use. It also displays the duration of use in each of the three power modes, and notifies the user when filters require cleaning. Additional data granularity might be useful, such as displaying the duration of individual cleaning sessions, rather than just the grand total of each day’s use. The Thin-Q app displays when the battery attached to the vacuum is being charged and when it is fully charged. It does not provide any additional battery status data such as the remaining capacity of the battery (% remaining), and when charging, the progress of the charge (% charged – time remaining to 100%). There is no information for the second battery. The power mop has a motorized base unit which attaches to the telescoping wand. A water reservoir snaps on top. Either of the fill plugs can be used to fill the tank with the included measuring cup. Only water is permitted in the reservoir; no cleaners or chemicals can be used. A rocker switch controls selecting high-flow or low-flow dispensing of water to the scrubbing pads. The included microfiber mop pads attach to the rotating disks on the bottom of the mop unit with Velcro. LG includes four scrubbing pads, and additional pads are very inexpensive on the LG Parts website (before shipping charges). The water flow switch effectively meters the dispensing of water from the tank via a small valve. When used in low-flow mode the residual dampness on tile floors was minimal and dried rapidly without water spots. In high-flow mode, additional water is dispensed to aid in scrubbing more heavily soiled areas. I was very pleased with the results after using the power mop attachment. The LG cannot compete with a corded, dedicated floor scrubbing/polishing machine, but for regular use in maintaining hard flooring, it appears that it will serve quite well! I believe that spraying some detergent directly on heavy soil prior to scrubbing with the CordZero A9 power mop will be even more effective. There is no indicator for an empty reservoir. The smoked plastic tank must be visually monitored to determine when refilling is necessary. Air filtration is comprised of multiple filter elements, and is listed as being 5 stage HEPA filtration. The filters are removable and washable. A spare pre-filter is also included. The small dust collection bin can fill quickly. The CordZero A9 Kompressor employs a very unique lever operated “piston” to compress the dust and pet hair in the bin, thereby extending the intervals between emptying. I am hopeful that the CordZero A9 proves to be durable and reliable, but of course, only time will tell. The unit is comprised of a significant quantity of plastic components. The latch and hinge which secure the dust collection bin appear to potentially be fragile. Overall, the LG CordZero A9 Kompressor stick vacuum with power mop is excellent. It is compact, lightweight, easily maneuverable and efficient. It is powerful, yet not unpleasantly noisy. It is well-equipped with accessories which attach with ease, and all of which have dedicated storage places on the included charging/storage stand. The two large capacity batteries provide approximately two hours of run-time, which is more than adequate for thoroughly cleaning a large house. The vacuum cleaning power and efficiency are great, and the power mop performs very nicely and delivered clean, shiny floor tiles without water spots. I believe that you will be just as thoroughly pleased and satisfied with the CordZero A9 Kompressor stick vacuum with power mop as we are with ours!

Sucks at sucking
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Underwhelmed for the cost. I enoy the docking station but after using this for a couple months I am considering finding something else. Works best using turbo which eats battery up so fast so to clean appropriately battery life is abysmal. Part of the plastic craped on the mop attachment. Do not even attemp to vacuum a tiny lowpile rug. Maybe I got a dud because I really wanted to like this.

High performance, Full Featured, Value Loaded Vac
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.LG CordZero A9 Wet/Dry Cord-Free Stick Vacuum with Kompressor Technology. Is it OK to use the words “value” and “premium” in the same sentence? If so, I’m going to declare that this LG CordZero A9 represents a distinct value in the upper range of premium stick vacs. As my review illustrates, the LG is serious performer, matching any other stick vac on the market, but the gifts keep coming in the form of numerous effective accessories. OUT - OF - THE - BOX: With only a few peeks at the very well done instructions (laminated, easy-to-understand, and a suction cup to hang them!!!), the vacuum stand “clicked” together. See pictures. In fact, everything made perfect sense so we put it together and let the batteries reach full charge and then moved on to the vacuum, itself. When all put together, a 15 minute task, it’s a neat, attractive set of accessories, along with a pretty stick vac charging at the same time the EXTRA BATTERY is also charging. It is well thought out. PERFORMANCE: This is a premium performance vacuum in its POWER MODE. NORMAL MODE is probably fine for bare floors, but most carpets will require the POWER MODE. TURBO MODE is for those of you who vacuum less often or are cleaning up in the aftermath of an especially messy event. In every case, the LG is extremely easy to maneuver. It is much more comfortable than a standard upright, but it picks up a variety of debris as effectively as the best vacuums we’ve ever used. The extending pipe is convenient and is very easy to use. The fit and finish of all the vacuum parts hints at a lengthy lifespan for the LG. There are no lights, however, to highlight dust, on the standard power head. The mop head does have an array of lights along the front. The battery life when used at its POWER MODE setting seemed very reasonable, approaching 20 minutes with the included POWER HEAD on a mix of floors. And, then there is the 2nd battery which has been charging in the storage cradle. The stable storage cradle, by the way, does NOT need to be attached to a wall, but it has the fittings included if you prefer a permanent mount location. The power cord is not more than a few feet long, after it exits the stand, but it worked for us. Emptying the clear canister is a simple button push. The filter assembly includes a pre-filter, the fine dust filter and the cyclonic mesh filter which are all fully washable. Just don’t try to wash the dust bin; it can only be wiped clean. Oh, and that Kompressor? Well, if your canister is too full and you want to capture some space without running to empty it, you have a sliding ring operated by the push actuator which packs the canister contents so they free up some space. Cute. It works. Not a game changer but more thoughtful design from LG. More helpful are the various indicators on the handle letting you know if there is a clog, if the filters need attention, Wi-Fi connectivity, and the battery level light trio. [That Wi-Fi allows connection to an App. We didn't even try. Sorry.] MOPPING: Along with a premium vacuum with exceptional performance there is a stunning, premium quality, wet mop accessory. This head feeds an adjustable amount of WATER (only) into the pad attached by velcro to two spinning disks. An elegant, easy-to-use attachment that extends the usefulness of the LG A9. It simply works. And LG tosses into the package a 2nd set of pads. There is even a cup for filling the mop reservoir. Nice. NOISE LEVEL: We prefer vacuums that don’t make us regret having to clean. Of course all vacuums will create noise, but the LG is reasonable at (my uncalibrated iPhone noise App) 71dB on NORMAL, 75dB on POWER, and 83 dB on TURBO. These are not loud sounds and more importantly, they are not annoying. The mop head is very quiet, managing only 55dB, which wouldn’t wake a napping baby. SUMMARY: I implied at the beginning of my review that a premium priced product might not also be a value. But, the LG CordZero A9 Wet/Dry Cord-Free Stick Vacuum with Kompressor Technology is so effective and convenient to use that it replaces a number of other tools. Everything works rather well. While nothing could make vacuuming fun, the LG at least makes it less of a chore. And, it doesn’t just vacuum. It’s a mop, able to dry or wet mop our tile and wood floors for the ultimate cleaning. This is a nice package that delivers on its promise. We like it a lot.

Poor Suction
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This vacuum has poor suction. Debris builds up in the filter instead of dropping down into the cannister. I end up having to clean out the filter mid vacuum just to finish the job. Thankfully it came with two batteries, because I've owned the product for less than a year and the batteries only run for about 15 minutes before they die. LG's online chat customer service is terrible, they disconnect you instead of helping to solve the problem. I wish I would have spent the money on a Dyson or Shark. The picture attached is after vacuuming an 8x10 area rug. I swapped out a new, clean filter before starting the job.

Best vacuum system overall, you'll want to keep it
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been the primary cleaner at my house, for 26 years of marriage, and for many years before that. And in all of those years, I've had many vacuums, both corded and cord free. I've had canister vacs, stick vacs, full size corded upright vacs. And in all of these years, until now, I could not say I met one that I'd want to keep because they all lacked something that I felt was important. Maybe it was a lack of place to store the accessories. Or maybe it was because the battery would run out too soon. Maybe it was because to charge it, I had to dedicate more of my kitchen counter to charging. Certainly none ever had spare batteries and if they did, they ended up also on my kitchen counter charging with all the other stuff that gets charged all the time. Well, that has all been solved. This model from LG includes everything you'll need or want, I promise you this will not disappoint you. It comes with two batteries, yes. Both are long use batteries. The first battery will get you an hour of clean time. If you use turbo, it's like 7 minutes. But you won't use turbo mode very often. Mostly the lowest power is all you'll need for anything but thicker carpet. For thicker carpet pile, you'll go medium mode. I used turbo to clean the dust from my bathroom exhaust fan, my HEPA filters, and a few other things. But that is not often. No worries though, if you do that as I did, you have a 2nd fully charged battery waiting for you as that 2nd battery charges on the stand....seriously! And you'll find you can get through most of your vacuuming by using both batteries - some will never use the 2nd battery, but it is there if you need it. But while you are cleaning, if you've tapped into the 2nd battery, the first is again charging on the stand while you are using the vacuum. This is a first, but this comes with a charging stand. Yes! A stand that is completely free standing. No need to mount to the wall or prop up the vac to charge. The stand has a heavy base that keeps it from toppling over. And to prevent it from being too tall and top heavy, they have built in a slide that allows the vacuum to be used by shorter folks, or taller folks, and to charge you simply slide it down to the shortest position. Smart! So my adult daughter who is 5'1" and me at 6', can both use the same vacuum. Sounds silly but one of us was always frustrated with the height of the vac thing. It makes a difference because if it is something that is comfortable to use, you'll stay with it longer. This unit is heavy enough, but light enough at the same time. The actual process of vacuuming will leave you in amazement of how much stuff it gets up, that you didn't know was being left behind. In particular, I found the dust coming up was more than I ever got out before and didn't know was present because no other vacuum was getting up this kind of dust. The one picture below will show you what I mean. It starts on the lowest power mode, one tap up and you'll get medium, and if you want turbo, hold the + sign for 3 seconds and you'll get turbo. The pics shown below are after having cleaned with another vacuum first, so what you see would have been missed, and we vacuum multiple times a day due to our long haired dogs. It isn't like we vacuum once a week or something. Our long haired German Shedder as she's been called, or our long haired chihuahua produce enough hair and dust/dander to keep anyone who cleans, frustrated at the never ending mess left behind. (God knows I'd be lost without them, they are a real blessing, but the cleaning part is very frustrating). This unit helps to reduce that frustration by removing more debris when I do clean. Anyway, this model comes with a crevice and a dust/combo tool, an extra cloth filter, and the mop related accessories. Other packages come with other stuff, like no mop related stuff, but a powered mattress/couch/chair/stair tool. The mop part of this is not as helpful in my case, because it only uses water and cloth mop heads to move somewhat slowly around to give you a cleaning agent free, water based, dust removal finish to your floors. Frankly, with my dog situation, and my adult children who aren't as neat as I would like, we have more of a need for high speed, cleaner based mopping needs. Most however, will find this useful if they aren't faced with the same challenges. This will get dirt off of the floor and onto the cloth pads, yes, but will not suffice as a replacement for a mop to mop up spills or to get dirty dried on stuff spilled on the floor that was overlooked at the last meal. It is more like a wet dust mopping. The floor must be dry and free of hair and stuff because it only swirls around and no vacuum assist during the mopping action. Getting past that, the power head for the vacuum does NOT have a problem with hair clinging to it and I can attest to this fully as my dogs hair normally clogs up most power heads. They normally leave little space for it to get from the roller to the tank, and then the hair starts a downward spiral of getting clogged up - this does NOT suffer from this effect. In fact, I was shocked to see that when I looked, the power head had zero backup going on, as if it was still brand new. This is a very good thing for me because I cannot tell you how many times I've had to take over power heads apart and clean, like every 2nd or 3rd day. Very frustrating. One really cool feature is the Kompressor bar. Sounds like a gimmick but it isn't. While simple, this has never been done before, it presses all that stuff down while you are out vacuuming, so that all that hair that would have taken up the tank, is pressed down and compressed into the small amount of space it really needs, thereby reducing the trips to the trash can to empty! Genius and most certainly appreciated! This is no gimmick, this is really helpful and will allow you to keep going, which is part of the reason I get frustrated cleaning because of all the trips back to the can to empty. This takes away that frustration! Another cool and non-gimmicky feature is the WIFI and app. Why? Well besides seeing how much time you really spend vacuuming, which it documents how long and what speeds you used and for how long, it has a smart diagnosis function. Run that and make sure your unit is working as it should. Frequent tips for common problems will show up if you don't have any issues, and if you do have problems, it would show you what to do to troubleshoot and resolve them. You would simply add this to the app as another appliance/device in your home, and then once the vac is connected, WIFI remains on unless you turn it off. Once your vacuuming is done and returned to the base, it'll send you a push notification when it is fully charged. Very handy and much appreciated. In my case I had some trouble adding this to the app, I had to delete the app and re-install it for some reason, I believe this is a one-off problem and not the common thing. You will not have to relearn all of your devices should you have to do this as the devices will re-appear when you re-install the app, also something that is much appreciated. The Thin Q app from LG has come a long way from its inception, it is a handy app for all of your LG stuff that is WIFI connected. I know there are things I'm forgetting to tell you about, as this is a full featured cleaning system, not just a vacuum. It fills the void by providing all of the things you will want from your primary vacuum. The beauty of buying from BestBuy is their liberal return policy, which for an investment such as this, you'll want to know can be used if for some reason you find this doesn't fit your needs. But trust me when I tell you, after spending decades being the primary cleaning person, with lots of vacuuming hours under my belt, and always wanting to be able to say "This one has it all", I find myself thinking this is really the be all end all for vacuums. The part about the adjustable vacuum height should not be overlooked. As I've aged and put on a few extra pounds, my back hurts more often than it used to. Using similar looking vacuums makes my back hurt because of the height of the vacuum and the top heaviness of them. This adjustable height and very balanced feel of this vacuum has allowed me to vacuum for longer without my back hurting. Anyone with back issues will understand you try to find things and ways to prevent this from happening as quickly. This seemingly small feature is a very big deal for me. And my daughter, who is only 5'1" echoes my sentiments on this topic.

Great features, just a little shy of perfect.
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a fantastic addition to the arsenal in my mission to keep my floors clean. I have two dogs and two little girls. The constant state of messes that engulfs my floors is staggering and I am always looking for something to help make the fight easier. The LG CordZero A9 is a big leap forward for me and preforms a lot better than my older cordless stick vacuum (another famous brand). This vacuum is definitely in the top of the preforming ones out there and unfortunately, the price also reflects that. However, at its premium price, it also is packed with a lot of value and features. This is geared more towards regular carpet and hard floors (tile, wood, etc.). However, the main vacuuming head is built more for carpet so it does struggle with picking up big pieces on hard floors at time, a soft roller would be better. There is a model that has a soft roller that comes with it and I think that would have been a better fit for this model since the mop attachment does not suck up anything so you must vacuum first, and the soft roller head would seem like it belongs with this set up. Despite that, cleaning the floors with the mop attachment is easy and does a great job. LG provides just about two of everything here. You get two sets of mop attachments, two sets of filters so you can clean a set and have one on the ready. Speaking of twos…you are given two batteries here and with the floor stand, you can charge both at the same time! That is one of the greatest features that I enjoy. You will always have a battery ready for the job at hand. Running time ranges between 60 minutes down to 7 minuets per battery depending on the power setting. Normal mode gives you the longest running time, but the suction is just about average. When you step it up to Power mode, you get about 13 minutes for each battery, and I feel this is the mode I use the most. Turbo mode is what I kick it in when I need to hit the high traffic areas and I never ran it down to zero in that mode but estimates around 7 minutes per battery is what I have seen. Another great feature I like is that there is a power button that you can toggle on and off, so you do not have to keep holding down a trigger button some my older stick vacuum. The placement of the power button could be in a better spot, I feel. I found my self accidently hitting it when placing the A9 back on the charging stand or when I am emptying out the dust bin, not a big deal but something to think about. There is no auto mode and that seems like a feature that all the other premium vacuums in this price range seem to have now. To manually shift between the power modes, you just need to hit the + and – buttons below the power button, in order to activate Turbo mode, you must hold down the + button for 3 seconds. This vacuum also has Wi-Fi abilities built in and you can toggle that by holding down the – button for 3 seconds. The LG ThinQ App will connect to the vacuum and you can run diagnostics on the vacuum, it will show you usage duration that is broken down into the different modes and how long each mode was running. It will also display if the attached battery is charging. I like the LG ThinQ app and I find it useful since it can also connect to other LG products, for example, my TV and my refrigerator both connect to the app as well, so I did not just have to download it for one device. Despite all of the good with this, there are a few things I feel that could improve this greatly. A more accurate battery indicator would be great, this only has three bars of power and other premium devices have an actual percentage or even an estimated time remaining. A larger dust bin would be nice, and the kompressor built into the dust bin will smash down the debris, but it would be nice to have more space. The last thing on my wish list would be some LED lights on the main vacuum head. It comes in handy when you are vacuuming dark places or under furniture. I feel at this price range, those features should be included as well. I will still recommend this to my friends and family though since it is not as expensive as some others out there, but its performance overall is really good. Pros: Suction Attachments Charging stand (2 batteries at once) Mopping function spare washable filters included laminated quick guides Cons: Lack of LED lights battery indicator small dust bin power button location lack of auto mode

Powerful & quiet
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Packaging: Really nice device with bunch of attachment accessories (washable filters, brush, mop attachment with fiber towel and cleaning pads, two batteries) and standing / charging base which can be used as standing or mounted holder. Clean and simple packaging which was very easy to be assembled and ready to use after just few attachments “clicked” together. Impressions: This is all you need for your house. Light and portable makes it easy to use in any area for any situation. If you have stairs this would be a life saver trust me, especially since this vacuum has detachable from its wand. We have combination of hardwood floor, vinyl and tiles and works great on all of them. Telescoping wand will help you reach to light ceiling in case some of the spider webs find a way to your home. Overview: This vacuum is the best I have ever tried, used or even seen. Not too loud for vacuuming and surprisingly quiet for mopping (I guarantee you won’t even hear it in the next room with door open). I think sound produced while mopping is equal to sound produced by regular cooling standards fans. I was positively surprised that is still vacuuming while mopping and result of it. We love this vacuum and all of our friends are inquiring about it. 10 years warranty on the motor and two batteries are big plus. Pros: Powerful Quiet Vacuum and Mop Detachable Extending Wand 2 batteries 10 year warranty on motor Light Cons: None

Almost as good as Dyson.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable handle, user friendly, Very good battery life, and very good suction. The only thing I don’t like is the lack of different heads unlike the Dyson which has more and better options. Also the mop never worked since day one. The stand it comes with is great too.

Great Value and Very Utilitarian
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have owned this vacuum for less than a month. So far, it has been very convenient to have downstairs. We have wood flooring and tile. It's great for to keep the floor clean and dust free. I am a clean freak and I like to be barefoot in the house. I hate having dirt and crumbs on the floor. We have a teenage son and that stuff just seems to fall off of him. It's also a lot easier for him to use then getting the old broom and dust pan. Having two batteries is also convenient when we have to do the whole downstairs. It's also super quiet and has enough suction to do the job. Although not as convenient as the swiffer wetjet, the wet part of the vacuum works much better to get our travertine tile clean. With the stand, two batteries, numerous attachments, quiet operation, you can't beat this cordless vacuum at the price point.
