Here is my Bissell vacuuming up everything that the Panasonic left behind. This vacuum was another trash find. The brush roll was shot, but the vacuum worked fine. I found another nearly identical vacuum a week or so later, which had the cord cut off. The brush roll was fine on it, though it was a different color... new belt and set of filters later, and I have a nearly new vacuum. They still sell this model at the local wal-mart. I think the only difference is that it's a different color.
