Factory-Reconditioned Dyson DC 14 All Floors Upright Bagless Vacuum, Steel Yellow Review

I'm a long time Oreck XL user. I saw the deal for a refurb on passwird.com, so I grabbed one. I can't believe the volume of dirt this thing pulled out of my carpets after they had been cleaned with the Oreck. It is heavier than the Oreck, but the complaints that it's "too heavy" are exaggerated. I also have had no trouble using the attachments. The trick is to completely extend the flexible hose one time. This keeps it from wanting to drag the base unit after you. The overall industrial design is great although I find the placement of the power button a little quirky. Small price to pay. I'd buy it again.

Designed for all floor types, this Dyson upright vacuum cleaner features a motorized brushbar that can be turned on to remove dirt and pet hair from carpets, or turned off to protect rugs and delicate floors. Its advanced Root Cyclone technology ensures thorough, efficient cleaning with no clogging or loss of suction. Dyson proves no loss of suction using the IEC 60312 Cl 2.9 test standard. The unit's pre-motor filter removes particles down to 0.1 micron and can be washed, while its post-motor electrostatic filter, which never needs replacing, traps harmful carbon emissions from the motor.
The vacuum cleaner also comes equipped with a quick-draw Telescope reach; the wand releases and expands 17-feet at the touch of a button for stairs and high-reach cleaning. In addition, special edge-cleaning whiskers, angled to reach down between the skirting board and the floor, flick the dust from the edge into the airflow. The intake nozzles of the on-board tools direct high-velocity airflow down into the carpet pile, which provides two main advantages. More gets picked up because the directional force of the air agitates and dislodges dust, and it keeps airflow continuous even when vacuuming curtains or upholstery, preventing them from becoming stuck to the cleaner.

Thoughtfully designed, the unit's hygienic 5/7-gallon bin quickly empties without ever having to touch the dust--simply pull the trigger. The clear bin means no bags to buy, plus it allows for easily viewing the cleaning progress and gauging when it's full. Air expelled from the unit contains up to 150 times less mold and bacteria than common breathing air thanks to the vacuum's money-saving, lifetime HEPA filter. Furthermore, Dyson upright vacuums are the first and only vacuums certified asthma friendly by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation. Other highlights include a 14-foot quick-draw hose, a wide channel for picking up larger pieces, auto carpet-height adjustment, a 35-2/5-foot cord, and an ergonomic design with a low handle that feels lighter to carry. The durably built vacuum cleaner measures 13-3/8 by 14 by 44-6/7 inches.

Editor's note: This is a reconditioned vacuum. Reconditioned generallymeans that the vacuum has been returned to the manufacturer, who returns theappliance to like-new condition. Some appliances may contain cosmetic blemishes.

Electrolux EL8502B Versatility 12 Amp Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner Review

Electrolux EL8502B Versatility 12 Amp Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner

I looked at a lot of other vacuums before choosing this one. It SEEMED to be built well and the design/engineering would be very handy and effective. I got it home and was amazed at how well it picked up dirt. To my disappointment however, after a week of use, it started to malfunction. First, I noticed the brush roller seemed to stop spinning on carpet. Then shortly afterward, the vacuum would shut itself off repeatedly after the first couple minutes of operation. The manual says this vacuum is designed to shut itself off when there is a blockage inside it to prevent overheating. Well I checked and rechecked for a blockage, cleaned the filter and brush roll but it still did the same thing. I contacted Electrolux customer service and they would not admit this was a common problem nor would they tell me if there was a fix for this problem but if you research reviews on other web sites, it appears to be happening quite often. Instead of going through the hassle of going to my nearest service center 40 miles away, I returned the vacuum for a refund. I really liked the vacuum at first but will not try another one. I found a Hoover Elite Windtunnel with a 6 year warranty. Don't bother with this model, you will eventually regret it. By the way, if you are looking for the quality Electrolux vacuum of the past, these are not it. These are made in China by the same company that makes Eureka. The old Electrolux was bought by a company called Aerus Lux.

Equipped with a 12 amp motor and bagless cyclonic technology, this upright vacuum cleaner delivers strong, consistent suction power and comes with versatile tools for keeping the home clean from top to bottom. The unit's on/off motorized-brushroll control allows for effortlessly transitioning from carpeting to bare-floor surfaces such as tile, linoleum, or hardwood, while its 14-foot stretch hose and quick-release wand make it possible to go from carpet to furniture to cleaning the ceiling in seconds. Onboard accessories consist of a crevice tool for between couch cushions or other tight spots, a dusting brush for bookshelves and tabletops, and a handheld turbo tool for removing dust and pet hair from stairs and upholstery. Its bagless technology means no more bags to buy, and the 1-1/5-quart dust cup empties easily, keeping hands clean and away from the dirt. Furthermore, its anti-odor HEPA filtration system eliminates odors and captures 99.97-percent of pet dander, dust mites, pollen, and mold for a cleaner, more welcoming home. Other highlights include edge-cleaning bristles, a 30-foot cord, and rugged construction with high-impact plastics. The vacuum cleaner measures 12-1/2 by 13-1/2 by 44-3/4 inches and carries a two-year limited warranty.

Bissell 3594 Cleanview PowerTrak Deluxe Bagless Upright Vacuum Review

Let me preface this by saying I've given a great review to my Fantom vacuum (which just died by the way) and must say, this vacuum is flat out great.
One sweep over carpet in our room and even I was amazed at what this thing pulled out! The bin was full after cleaning just one small room and the carpet definitely looked like it had been cleaned. I'm saying this after looking at our 4 year old builder grade carpet that is pretty matted down. Yet, the Bissell was able to pull up the fibers and make the carpet look really, really nice.
I agree with the attachments, they should be easier to get to. Another feature that would be nice would be a bigger collection bin. It's not much bigger than a sauce pot so be ready to do a lot of dumping if you vacuum large areas.
All in all, we got this vacuum for under $90 and would do it again in a heartbeat.

Hoover Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum, Platinum Collection, UH70015 Review

We went through our second Dyson, and decided to switch just for the sake of doing so. Aside from the really high end European models, we opted for this new "prestige" line from Hoover, figuring it would be interesting to see what's the best they can do at a higher price point.
The machine itself looks really good, and when you turn it on, it's like starting a nice car, it almost purrs. The electronic start/stop and the electronic height adjustments are fabulous, very refined. And the machine seems to pick up everything in site.
Now, here are a few things to keep in mind, none of which are deal-breakers, but believe me, this thing is not perfect.
First and foremost, emptying the dirt chamber. At first we thought it was like most other bagless machines, you flick a lever and let the stuff fall in your garbage. But after about a week, we noticed the machine not picking up nearly as well, and we couldn't figure out a thing.
Then we looked carefully and saw that a huge collection of hair and debris had collected inside an inner cup, wrapped around the so-called cyclonic device.Once we got rid of that stuff, the vacuum was like new again. Still, it is hardly referred to in the manual, and it is rather a messy task.
Finally is the "dirt" indicator. It works on some sort of audio principle, sending out sounds which come back distored if they run in to dirt. I find that this works most of the time, but sometimes, it just stays red, and even after going over the area five times, it stays red.
I guess one could beef about the extension cord, why they didn't come up with some better way to unreel it and attach it to the machine. This is just like every other vacuum in that respect, but the cord seems longer.
I think I would buy it again, but the bag emptying procedure is sloppy and very unsophisticated. I'd be looking for machines that might do that job better.
