Let me tell you, this vacuum made me actually enjoy cleaning for the first time in my life. The 180° swivel head glides under my couch like it's ice skating, and those LED lights reveal embarrassing amounts of pet hair I didn't know existed.

As a golden retriever owner, the anti-tangle feature is a godsend. No more spending 20 minutes cutting wrapped hair from the brush roll - it just... works. The suction at max power literally pulled up embedded dirt from my area rug that my old plug-in vacuum missed.

The battery life shocked me - I can do my entire 1,200 sq ft apartment on a single charge with power to spare. Pro tip: The wall mount is genius for quick grab-and-go cleaning when unexpected guests text they're '5 minutes away'.

What surprised me most? How quiet it is. My dog doesn't even hide anymore when I vacuum. The HEPA filter makes such a difference too - no more sneezing fits after cleaning like with my old vacuum.

Only complaint? It's almost too lightweight - I keep forgetting I left it leaning against furniture because it blends in so well!
