Pros: Powerful Suction, Bagless, Helps People With Allergies, Onboard Attachments and Suction Hose.
Cons: Heavy, Pricey but worth it.
The Bottom Line: This vacuum is great for the people that are owned by their pets. The amazing power for picking up dust and fur makes this a must have.

Pros: Good suction, good tools, good design excellent brush. All around works well.
Cons: Trouble traversing the "lip" between uneven floor surfaces. Can't lie down and get under furniture.
The Bottom Line: Delivers on its promise to deliver YOU from pet hair. Brush roller and suction work GREAT on carpets, with only a few maneuverability gripes.

Pros: really works better than any vacuum out there, many accessories, futuristic design, quiet
Cons: no retractable cord, too many trips outside to empty the canister, no bag for accessories
The Bottom Line: This unit sucks... really well. The 5 year warranty and the amazing performance makes the price worth it.

Pros: Design, suction, hidden telescoping hose, bottom-emptying collection bin, lifetime HEPA filter, NO BAGS!
Cons: Too pricey for some folks. Hose is not as flexible as I would like.
The Bottom Line: When something is done right, it makes it a joy to use. This vacuum lives up to its reputation as the best of the best. Worth every penny.

Pros: Carpet looks professionally cleaned, crisp lines, fluffed pile. Lighter than my last vac.
Cons: Some don't leave prominent striping, and have less suction. Mini Turbine tool is sub-par.
The Bottom Line: If you are willing to take back an undeclared older model that performs poorly compared to the recently manufactured identical models, this vac is easily worth your money.

Pros: Easy to use, great for pet households, no bags to buy.
Cons: Maneuverability is sometimes not the best. Dust can blow in your face at emptying.
The Bottom Line: The absolute best if you have a pet household or just want to get things really clean

Pros: There's too much to fit in here
Cons: Powered hand tool isn't very powerful, Zorb doesn't really work
The Bottom Line: I think you should consider this, because no other vacuum cleaner has the same technology, and it's made by a trustworthy company.
