I'd stick with the convertible
Really there are better lightweights out there my experience with the platinum was cut short due to a circuit board issue but during the time i had it i put it against some other lightweights it took 3rd out of 4 in one test, and last place in the next. They are cool looking vacuums, but i feel their longevity is poor as i've seen a few with circuit board issues now, and the fan and motor seem to come as one piece. If you search for parts online, the fan cannot be bought seperately from the motor. So odds are if you ever broke the fan you would need to replace the whole motor assembly. The convertible may not have the filtration power, the light weight or the cool modern looks to it, but it will perform better and last longer.
