Best praise vs top criticism for Kenmore Intuition BU4022

Best Praise
+10 pts
I bought a Kenmore Intuition about 20 years ago that had an indicator light that would change from red to green when you'd successfully gotten every speck of debris in the spot you were running over. I loved that feature. Love my Sebo E3, but I've never seen another machine with that capability--and it probably cost a quarter to a third of the price.

If you are comfortable with DIY, the only real issue the Kenmore Intuition has is the head hose splitting after heavy use (few years for most).
