Eureka Boss Smartvac Bagged Upright Vacuum Review

I read lots of reviews and was scared to buy a new vacuum.  I had spent way too much on my last one and it was only average, at best, and then slowly lost power.  That seemed to be a theme with vacuums judging by the reviews I read.  This one seemed to have great reviews, so I bought it.  I have 3 kids, 2 dogs, and a very messy husband, so let's just say that this vacuum is put through its paces.  I've had it for about 8 months and am very happy with it!  It hasn't lost power and picks up dirt like no vacuum I have ever owned.  My kids even like to use it!  My only complaint is that I can't get the attachments to stay where they are supposed to be stored on the vacuum, so they get lost because I forget where I put them.
