"Though this vacuum has excellent suction. well thought out attachments, and very easy to push among many other accolades there is one glaring problem. In the user manual it states "handling the cord on this product will expose you to lead,". Well if you have children or your pregnant, well lead is a four letter word. Of corse I found this out after my pregnant wife finished rolling up the cord"

First of all, I've never bought into the notion that a pricey vacuum does any better job than a less expensive Hoover. Until now. I did my research and checked Consumer Reports.org extensively before forking over big $$$ for this Bosch. It is worth ever nickel. It's quiet, does an excellent job on all floor types and is extremely easy to maneuver compared to my old Hoover wind tunnels. If you have the cash, I HIGHLY recommend it as a good investment.

This is a five star review for two reasons:

1) This vacuum rocks. It is quiet, sucks up everything in site, and the bags last a long time. My wife and I have a labrador retriever and three bunnies in the house. The fur can be unbearable at times. This vacuum is the best I've ever seen at picking up dust and hair. And, it does not blow dust particles back into the air like many other vacuums claiming to have HEPA filtration. I put this on par with a Miele vacuum. Awesome.

2) The lead comment in the power cord does not only apply to this vacuum. Check a lot of the products in your home, and you will find that MOST have lead in the power cords. Apparently, PVC products contain lead. PVC is the coating on the exterior of power cords. So, all those extension cords, computer cables, telephone cords, etc. contain lead. Want to wash your hands now? I do. Don't let it deter you from purchasing this good product.

This vendor--famous deal-- Amazon continues to show this item with this vendor, but they have no stock. I found out 2 weeks later. Very disappointing.
