Summary: Good for the Price
Comment: I did a lot of research on different canisters when I was switching over from my not so old Hoover upright. Once I saw the specs on this & it's price tag (got it for about $130 shipped), I had my heart set. Well, it was a hard one to pin down! I ordered 5 times from different co's before I finally found a company that actually had it- right here on Amazon from Beach Audio Inc (thank goodness they actually had it because my house was gettin' dirty!)
So now I've had it for about 3 wks & love it. OK, there is some bad with the good, but for the price- I'm not complaining & that's some trick. I have a 4 yr old, 2 black cats & a red 40lb dog (oh, and a husband in construction). I also have cream and/or white low pile carpets & hardwood floors in the main areas of the 2200SF house. The dog is restricted to hard wood, but the cats have free roam (of course).
With that said, this vacuum has enough suction power for me. It's 11 amps compares well with my 12 amp Hoover upright, though I do have to remove the air driven turbo nozzle to get the heavy stuff w/ the wand. Not too bad because it's just a pop & click out & then back in as I go around the house. The crevice & dust tools are conveniently on board so that's a plus, though the wand itself does the trick for me mostly. Overall, I would say that even though the turbo nozzle doesn't 'suck' (ie the brush is only powered by the air suction)it was worth the trade off to have it so light because my old hoover broke my back & this does not at all. I love that the wand is an easy telescopic click as well.
I love that it's bagged. My hoover was not & I was getting sick of the mess having to dump it out & get all that dirt & dog grime back in the air & still have it blow 'dog smell' about my house while I was cleaning. Now the crud is cleanly tucked away in a bag I can toss & replace (I found it easy to buy a box of replacement bags off of panasonic's website).
I love that the canister has 2 handles. I lay it down on the floor & stand it up while I go up the stairs. Easy grab either way. It's light weight for my bad neck arthritis overall.
OH, and to my surprise- it is equipped with a parking mechanism that wasn't mentioned in the sales pitch. One of my favorite features! Makes it even compare closer to the Miele I was wanting and couldn't drop $600 on.
I even like the handle grip as I do not prefer the 'ergonomic' type for whatever reason. They seem awkward to me. This is simple design & feels comfy on my wrist without the extra plastic.
So, my only real complaint would be a shorter cord than I had- but if it were longer... the vacuum would be heavier. Give & take. I can manage 1 room at a time & then just move the plug. I do love that you push a button & the cord sucks back up-- no winding mess. :)
Overall a very happy camper. I even love the color...

Summary: Great Little Canister Vac
Comment: I've owned this vacuum for about a year. It replaced another Panasonic canister vac that I had for 30 years (with never a breakdown!), so I trusted this to be equally as well-made. My only criticism is the length of the cord. I'd prefer a longer one so more area could be vacuumed without having to change outlets. The suction is powerful and the suction adjustment knob is an added bonus. I have tile and hardwood floors plus 7 animals, but my house is always hair-free thanks to this strong lightweight vac.
P.S. My old Panasonic vac still lives on at my friend's house and hasn't quit yet. Hurray to Panasonic for making such quality products!

Summary: Great canister vac for the price
Comment: Only used for about 4 weeks but product is well designed; powerful enough for normal cleaning; has a retractable cord that is a nice benefit; accessories fit nicely onboard; rolls easily and vacuums as described. Good value.

Summary: panasonic vacuum
Comment: vacuum works well on carpet and bare floors. One problem is you have to change the setting each time you sweep from floor to carpeting. Has a revolving brush which picks up pet hair well but needs to be removed by hand to keep head clean.Had a hard time getting dust bags. I had to order them from the Panasonic company. I am still waiting for the bags to arrive. Seems to have good suction.

Summary: Good choice
Comment: I bought this vacuum about three months ago after searching online for other brand. I had canister vacuum for many years but it was broken. I like a similar vacuum because it is easier on the stais and good on hardwood floor. Panasonic has a good reputation on quality and design, so I bought without hesitation. So far the vacuum works well and light in weight. The only problem is that eighter the cord is not retracted back into the storage, or it does not stay out. I had to use a binder clip to stop the cord going back in. Also, it is very hard to find the replacement vacuum bag. Had to go to panasonic.com to order them.
