certain aspects of the design could be improved e.g. sloped dust compartment means that when its full, sometimes you'll need to pull the dust out by hand instead of it falling straight in the bin.

It didn't pick up very well at all and in fact through everything back out. You only see this on a hard floor not carpet!!
Also there is an outlet which is permanently open where the attachments go and this spews out air and dust as you are pushing it along!!
