For those interested, this matches the popular
+68 FP Deal.
*Costco Members Only*
For reference, the Costco-exclusive model has a few extra attachments compared to the main model being sold elsewhere (Mattress Tool, Flexi Crevice Tool, and Up Top Adapter). This model also comes with the updated Fluffy Optic Cleaner Head for hardwood floors vs the older Laser Slim Fluffy Head.

1. This will not replace a corded vacuum if you have a big house with a lot of pets. It's simply not powerful enough. It will require more work and therefore more battery to do the same job as a couple passes with a corded Dyson. That said it still is surprisingly strong for how light it is.
2. Speaking of batteries...ugh. First one had a fault battery so back ot went. Be sure to test them right away. We cannot get more than a few rooms down in a roughly 2k sq ft house before the battery needs charging so we ended up needing to buy another. One replacement battery from Dyson is $150. Want another OEM charging cable? $30.
3. It comes with a wall mount but nothing to hold all the accessories. I bought a stand from Amazon that was like $30 and seems like it will work well.
All in I probably paid somewhere around $750 for the vacuum, extra battery, and stand even with the deal on the vacuum. I never wanted a vacuum that expensive but you know what they say....happy wife, happy life...
Never found battery life an issue b/c lowest power is sufficient for hardwood and low or med is fine for carpet. Also found myself able to vacuum way quicker because not having to constantly shift outlets and only able to do section of the house. Way more freedom and ability to do quick 5 min vacuum session that cover a surprising amount of ground. Kind changes the way you vacuum if you just do your house once a week, but we vacuum every other day because the dog so having the ability to quickly do the half of downstairs or a room upstairs was a lot nicer.
Huge Dyson skeptic b/c I think the plastics are chintzy and parts are overpriced, but there's something to be said for the efficiency of cyclonic filtration. I do dislike emptying the bin so regularly compared to the HEPA bags from Miele, but those were also a surprisingly expensive recurring cost. $10 for an additional filter for the Dyson is highly recommended because you have to wash it pretty regularly. If (when) the battery dies I'll buy the Milwaukee M18 conversion kit and just use Milwaukee batteries at that point. Do dislike their whole battery situation.

Edit - This also has the Up Top Adapter.
I did for the better fluffy optic head and the other 2 attachments. Plus you can't beat Costco's return policy
So personally, this was a better choice for me. But if you don't really care about getting the extra attachments for mattress/upholstery/car type vacuuming and the newer/brighter fluffy head, or if you don't have a Costco membership, then the other deal might be better for you. You should make the best decision for your own needs.
