Rating : - Great cleaning, but...
This vacuum does a supreme job of cleaning carpet, bare floors, upholstery and lamp shades (with the cool powered attachment), and I would guess it would do equally as well with stuffed animals and anything else you wished to suck the dust/dirt out of. It is a bit messy to empty, but I've devised a method of containing the mess in grocery/plastic bags and don't dread that task in the least. I did encounter a problem that I have not found in any of the preceding reviews. I vacuumed a throw rug and shortly thereafter, while continuing to vacuum elsewhere, smelled something burning. After much investigation, I found that fiber from that throw rug had gotten wound inside one of the beater brush "caps" (the caps that contain either end of the roller as it's spinning), which prevented the roller from turning and therefore overheating the motor. I extracted that clogging fiber and very carefully reassembled the roller/belt assembly, but only a few minutes after resuming the vacuuming chore, the belt broke. It's true that Hoover will provide free replacement belts (on order)--just a bit of a cautionary tale... watch out for loosely woven carpets/rugs!!
