" ... On low pile carpet it was almost impossible to push forward and when pulled backwards the tubes would come apart because they don't lock together. ... "
" ... My only qualm is that the tube will fall off the handle occasionally after I began using it regularly. ... "
" ... The handle falls off the hose every time I use it and it’s really annoying! ... "

" ... So essentially it was glued shut. ... "
" ... BUT the hard "pipe" keeps on falling off/disconnecting from the handheld part. ... No matter how hard I try to connect the two pieces. ... I will have to duct tape them together (which is not ideal because then I can't take the pieces apart for storage). ... "
