since Momof5 asked about my upright...
I like it--I have a 2014 Riccar Brilliance, so it has the new dustbag (like the Prima's). I have asthma, so this is really important to me, and it performs beautifully over any other dustbag I've tried (I like it better than my sister's Miele, too). I find it handles very well, not especially heavy--I'd tried a Miele S7 which was unwieldy and too tall, and I was worn out after using it. Not so, with this. I can carry it, even up and down stairs without difficulty. It has a really long hose, and the attachments are very nice--the dusting brush has real, not synthetic hair. It's a combo tool connecting to the upholstery. I have no complaints about cord length, which must mean it's a good length. I wish the crevice tool were longer, but I've never met one that was long enough for the places I'm trying to reach! You can adjust the suction a bit when using the hose (like if you were vacuuming drapes), which is handy. I use the WOW floor tool with the hose for bare floors, and it's fantastic! I also like that I can get close to edges on both sides of the vacuum, not just one. It has features I like and am used to--a headlight, for example, and lies down pretty flat, but it doesn't go far enough under furniture (like beds), which is why I would like a canister (I have a not great Kenmore canister that I use, but this is why I want the Prima). It looks very similar to the Maytag M1200, which was being introduced at the time I bought it--I couldn't find anyone carrying Maytags locally, and worried about not being able to buy bags, etc. The same dealer who told me the Prima project had been abandoned had told me they were not going to carry Maytags, and essentially badmouthed them--yet, they are now in that store.
