First one lasted me 8 years. In the past year and half bought 3 and all 3 of them had burned out motors! Will never buy this brand again!

When the one year warranty expired, the vacuums motor apparently failed. R750 to repair with only a three month gaurantee . Thought it was supposed to be tough. Only use it for household. Bought several Bennet Read products after that and I am to scared to recommend this brand to any one.
