Personal fave...
Out of all the non-upright vacs I have, my Princess III is my go-to canister for bare floors and above floor. I like the fact it offers an option of a charcoal insert with the filter cone, as I have a shedding dog. It has a long cord, long hose which I believe might be 10ft. on this model, moves about ball caster type wheels, and quiet. It pulls almost 100 on the meter, more than enough for anyone I would think. The downside to her is the power nozzle. I have never been a lover of FQ power nozzles, very lackluster IMHO. They're relatively quiet, but far from a deep cleaner. If you want the power nozzle to complete the ensemble I understand, but you're not missing much as far as performance, not to say it might work fine on low nap or tight weave like a berber rug, don't know, I just have wall-to-wall plush. I will keep an eye open at friends shops for a gray power nozzle for you though, so it's complete. I'm assuming it came with the wand?
