Summary: 5 Stars
I've used this or previous Filter Stream models for over 15 years. It has GREAT suction - picks up even the smallest dirt particles as well as larger pebbles, is easy to clean, works well on wet pick up, even on carpet & the tools are handy. Of course, we all wish the batteries would last longer, but has been satisfactory. I've raised 3 kids, 2 cats & a dog with a Filter Stream vac, using it virtually every day, so I really have good basis to recommend it. Have even given them as gifts (housewarming, wedding & baby shower). That said... I must say that I am currently quite disillusioned on this one point: When my battery died recently, I couldn't find a replacement online (which I have done before). When I called Filter Stream, they said they are no longer selling replacement batteries; rather I would need to buy a whole new vac. The reason: a safety concern with customers installing the battery incorrectly. The story: the company decided to stop letting customers replace their own batteries because they'd had a lawsuit due to a small fire, and they couldn't afford the liablity. So I told him I wanted to talk to someone in management, who would actually listen, to let them know this was ridiculous. I got a call back the next day from the co-owner of the company! Ok, I will say that's a first - typically, I never even get a return email! So we discussed the situation for quite some time - he was extremely receptive to my comments & explained the situation - basically they are in a big pickle over one lawsuit(and they are not even sure what actually caused the fire), causing their liabilty insurance to go sky high, so for legal reasons, had to take this stand. Without ranting on about our law-suit happy society, this is certainly a case of one bad apple ruining it for all of us! Anyway, I explained my view about how bad it was to be so wasteful, financially AND environmentally, by disposing of a perfectly good vac unit for want of a replacement battery, and he totally agreed. He said they are considering ways to re-design it to make the battery replacement easier and hopefullly fool-proof, but it may be too expensive. Admittedly, it could have been a better, more user-friendly design in the first place. My conclusion: I will go ahead and purchase a new vac this time because: A) it IS the best one out there, especially at that mid-level price range, and B) I want to support the company in their attempt to make this improvement. However, if they don't, when the time comes, I wouldn't buy a new vac that does not have a replacable battery.
