I bought this Kenmore
model<http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_02027614000P?keyword=vacuum&vName=For+the+Home&cName=Vacuum+Cleaners+%26+Floor+Care&sName=Canister+Vacuums>last
Christmas and think it's great. It has some design elements that are
highly usable, i.e. retractable cord, easy to take things apart, easy to
remove/add the vacuum bag. Apparently all canister vac.s can have better
suction and have better sound insulation than upright vacuums. It does great
on hardwood floors using the 8 or 10" floor attachment that comes with it.

There are 1 or 2 models *above* this in their line, but, if I recall, they
just had some non-essential electronics--maybe a touch pad rather than an
on/off switch--which seemed like they would break before the motor would.

I can't vouch for durability yet though.

Regards,
Scott
