The suction starts out fine, but it depletes rather quickly as the bag fills.... and the agitation is weak.... at least on the automatic style machines. They can't sell themselves on stellar cleaning performance, they are great for durability and easy maintenance, perfect for thin flat commercial carpet, but much more than that I think requires a more capable machine....
No matter who the S7 was made for, it is an amazing work of art that performs wonderfully.... I don't even want to suck up dirt with mine because it is so beautiful!
