This is a great little vacuum as long as you understand and accept its strong points and limitations. It is a compact and lightweight yet powerful machine that's great for cleaning hard floors, dusting, getting into hard to reach places and general household cleaning.
It wasn't designed for carpet cleaning - for that I use my heavy duty Sanitaire upright vacuum with beater brush. It's not designed for garage/shop cleaning of sawdust, water, gravel, nails, etc. For that I use my 10-gallon wet/dry Shop-Vac.
I first bought a Sanitaire S3681D 3 years ago for my college student daughter to clean her apartment and car. It has worked very well, it's easy for her to handle, takes up little space and she hasn't been able to break it. Last month, my 40+ year old Eureka canister vacuum finally died, so I bought another Sanitaire S3681D to replace it, remembering how well my daughter's has worked. I wasn't disappointed. It easily takes over where my big upright carpet vacuum leaves off.
Some reviewers have mentioned that the machine gets warm (not hot) to the touch while running. This is because of the powerful 12-Amp motor inside, which provides strong suction. It's the most powerful small vacuum I've ever found.
My favorite features are its light weight - only 8 lbs., compact size, easy carry handle on top, it sits either horizontal or upright, it rolls easily on its wheels, the bags are quick/easy to change and it sucks like crazy.
