Hey guys it's been a while but I thought I'd check in... I work at a vac shop and have seen a few of these units come in for repair. So far the failures have been cord, switch and brush bearing/hair issues. Unfortunately there are no OEM parts. And their customer service by phone takes 2 weeks for a response and email takes about a week. Aside from the failures mentioned the units seem to be very sturdy, but open the hood and whoa.. looks like a problem waiting to happen.
