Thanks! Looks like good reviews! Phew!! The biggest reason I bought it was because they have an upright with a floor attachment for hardwoods etc. To find this kind of attachment you usually have to go with a canister which I just had and I don't like-I prefer an upright. I did a lot of research and went to every store that carried vacs. I'm afraid of what this vac is going to pull out of my carpets! LOL
