I know everyone says they are overpriced and over-rated.
But I want to get a stick type one like this, and there don't seem to be many alternatives.

I had a conventional upright Dyson a while ago, which I actually got off freecycle so can't be accused of unwise spending. But I was reasonably impressed with it. It worked, and also, it seemed quite easy to get replacement parts and easy to replace them.
Don't tell me to get a Henry - it needs to be cordless, and convenient for stairs and various small spaces. Small capacity doesn't matter because it's for a fairly small flat.
