Vax V062 Ultrixx Cobalt is a variable power 1800W bagless cylinder vacuum with a HEPA filter. It comes with a floor combi head for carpets & hard floors as well as Vax TurboTool and crevice & brush tools.
As far as the spec goes it was pretty much what I was looking for after 2 years of using crappy landlord-provided machines before.

Advantages: Striking, affecting combinations of music and visuals, strong central performance. Disadvantages: Perhaps a little too blue.
"Now I have only one thing left to do: nothing. I don't want any belongings, any memories. No friends, no love. Those are all traps."
This is the resolution of Julie Vignon (Juliette Binoche), the central character of Three Colours: Blue. The survivor of a car crash which took the lives of her husband Patrice, a celebrated composer, and her young daughter, she desires nothing but to withdraw from life, cutting all ties and bonds that formerly surrounded her.
The creation of a Franco-Polish collaboration, and the last project of acclaimed director Krzysztof Kieslowski, the Three Colours trilogy (Blue being the first, White the second and Red the third) takes as its focus the three foundations of the French state; Liberté, égalité et fraternité.
