ninjasherrie says "OK in a pinch if money is tight; otherwise try another brand" about Dirt Devil Dynamite

I bought this vacuum (Dirt Devil Dynamite) after moving to a location that had wall to wall carpet upstairs after having all hardwood floors. I didn't want to spend a lot, so i picked up the Dirt Devil Dynamite at Wal Mart for like $29.00.

This vacuum is very basic; there are no attachements, no bells and whistles, but it does have HEPA fltration which i thought was good, since i live in dusty Arizona and have a cat. It was simple to assemble and the cord is very long, although it does not have auto rewind for the cord.You must wind and unwind it as needed. Annoying, but for $29.00 what should i expect?

This vacuum is LOUD! Not only is the motor loud enough to make your ears ring, it also emits a high pitched squeal that is grating on the nerves. Sometimes i notice a weird odor but i've checked and can find no belts rubbing or hot parts or smoke, so i guess this is the norm?

Bottom line, this vacuum does a decent job of picking up dirt and pet hair, but it lacks an adjustable...
