Mine's the "Feather Lite Swivel Guide" or something like that, and this one is the Ultra Swivel Guide (amazon.com: $68.99 w/ free shipping). I got it as a wedding present, and that was almost three years ago, and its worked fine ever since. I had it taken in to the vac shop last week to get a new belt and filter, and that only ran me $30. It's just 12 amps, but it does the job for me (and I have 3 cats, so the fur in my house can get a little extreme).
