Expert Opinion
Professional reviewers commend the Kenmore IB600 for its strong suction, extensive reach and superior filtration, noting that its 12‑amp motor and dual‑motor system deliver performance that exceeds expectations for its weight class. The long retractable cord, convenient onboard tool storage and pet‑focused accessories receive particular praise, though reviewers flag the manual cord rewind and overall heft as drawbacks.
