Bissell 37601 Lift-Off Revolution Turbo Upright Bagless Vacuum Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)An upgrade to my last Bissell (Cleanview Deluxe),this one is even better....was ONSALE for $160, and well worth it.
Removeable canister capability is easy and makes this vac so much more versitile...such as taking out to your car or for carpeted steps. I really love the user friendly design of these Bissell vacs....never complex, and I don't feel I need a manual to understand or operate.
Super suction...and the brushes are so powerful, it almost feels self propelled as you push forward.
The 'telescoping' function of the extension wand was a nice upgrade, although it does takes a little time getting used to it...also the new dual-headed brush tool is an inovative idea i like.
Another really nice upgrade is the on/off brush power button...and the vac is now smart, even when brushes are powered ON, they wont rotate till you step on the release pedal AND pull the handle down towards you.
I also noticed you can now pull the handle down literally to the FLOOR without the front of the vac lifting up...this means being able to roll further under couches/tight spots.
If I had to give CONS :
1) There are 3 filters...1 HEPA and 2 foam...the foam filters in particular should be cleaned once a month,as directed..but I check even more often (due to high traffic/pets)... They can get pretty dirty relatively fast, and although u may not notice any loss of suction,I assume cleaning these filters often will always improve performance...... Its not hard to do, they are basically foam sponges u can rinse clean, and they dry pretty quick.
2) The vac when all together as 1 unit, is pretty heavy. Doesnt bother me, but may be an issue to some. My wife immediately noticed the weight... The canaster vac, when separated, is easy to carry with its handle, but some may still find even this a little heavy as well.
In my opinion, the weight is due to good construction and a strong motor. I think its worth it.
3) Seems like a lot of new vacs come with some form or version of a 'turbo brush' attachment. I'm not a fan of these...the brushes are SUCTION driven, NOT motor driven. Its a gimmick tool.. I prefer the simple NON turbo brush tool that come with this vac, and I let the suction power (and a little up/down motion of my own) do the work. I keep the turbo brush permanantly removed from the handle altogether. To me its just added dead weight.
4) only 1 improvenment I could think of now is a retracteable cord....

Hoover U6436-900 TurboPower Self-Propelled WindTunnel Bagged Upright Vacuum Cleaner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently bought the Hoover Windtunnel U6436-900 (TurboPower 7600) to replace my old Hoover Windtunnel U6445-920 (Mach 6.9) which was "giving up the ghost" after 6 years of flawless service. I could have had the old vacuum fixed for less than half of what the new one cost, but I decided to turn back the clock and invest in a new vacuum.
The new U6436 is almost exactly the same as my old Hoover except that it stores tools on the back of the vacuum and now has room up front for the power attachment. Hoover Windtunnel is definitely as loud as ever too. That's because it's actually doing something. It's amazing how much suction these vacuums have when the bag is empty. By the time the bag is full, I estimate that suction decreases by 25%...which is still more than adequate by the way.
I compared the U6436 side-by-side with the Eureka TheBoss 4870GZ that my inlaws have. The Hoover beats the Eureka pretty solidly in power and ease of push thanks to the self propel feature. It really glides along like it is on iceskates or something...almost effortless. Since the Hoover costs 33% more, this is to be expected. The Eureka is quieter, and that's about it.
The product manual that came with the U6436 indicates that it has a 2 year warranty. I've seen conflicting reports on this on various other sites, but it is definitely 2 years...
A famous consumer magazine ranks this vacuum near the top, and I agree. I have owned Hoover Windtunnel for quite awhile now, and they are reliable and do a great job. The bags are cheap too, usually around $7-$8 for 3 of them.
In short, I highly recommend this vacuum.

Equipped with a powerful 12 amp motor, this self-propelled bagged upright vacuum cleaner delivers exceptional performance and virtually effortless cleaning in both forward and reverse modes. The unit's 15-inch-wide cleaning path helps get the job done quickly, while its patented WindTunnel technology provides a powerful dual air stream for enhanced dirt pickup and removal. In addition, dual edge groomers loosen and remove dust, dirt, and lint that collect along baseboards, and the variable height settings and on/off brush-roll control allow for switching from bare floors to carpets with ease. When the handle returns to its upright, locked position, the brush roll automatically shuts off and the unit directs all its power to tool suction. On-board tools include a crevice tool, an upholstery nozzle, a dusting brush, and two extension wands. Its deluxe stretch hose extends up to 11-feet when using both wands and the crevice tool. Even more, its on-board powered hand tool works great for vacuuming upholstered furniture, carpeted stairs, and hard-to-reach places. The unit also comes with allergen filtration that captures 100-percent of dust mites and 99.98-percent of ragweed and common grass pollens. Other highlights include a textured handle grip, fingertip "on/off" control, a full-width headlight to illuminate dark corners, a non-marking furniture guard, a check-bag indicator, a 31-foot power cord with quick-cord release, and a carrying handle for easy transport. The vacuum cleaner measures 13 by 15 by 43 inches and carries a two-year parts-and-labor warranty.

Hoover Savvy U8181-900 Bagged/Bagless Combo Upright Vacuum Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I read the review below and thought I'd take a chance. However, I found the same reviewer almost everywhere I looked at the product, and only that reviewer. Raised some questions. When the product arrived there was a problem with the level of suction, it was not picking up minor items. I called the Hoover 800 service number and was unhappy to find that it was just a phone dump. It asked where you are and a computer gives you the name and address of a dealer in my case 40 minutes away and then disconnects you. I expect a company like Hoover to have a legitimate customer service department. I have a pet and a clean home is important to me; I have returned the Hoover and purchased the Dyson DC14 Animal. The Dyson is more costly, however if I waste my time cleaning and not picking up anything I believe that the cost of having a poorly performing unit in my case is greater than the outlay for the Dyson. This may have been just a defective unit however I believe it would do someone seeking to buy the Hoover U8181-900 well to check things out.

Hoover U8371-900 WindTunnel 2 Complete Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If your living environment is in the country with exposure to dirt, mud, animal hair & normal household dirt or dust, this vacuum is not for you! This machine is poorly designed & does not perform as advertised. Suction is so great it pulls dirt, debris & hair up through the collar cone filter & directly into the sealed HEPA chamber. Once the chamber plugs full of debris, the vacuum looses all suction & ability to clean. There are only two options for cleaning the chamber, once obstructed - take it to an authorized shop or dismantel the machine yourself. No one wants a vacuum that must be 'repaired' after minimal use, or one that must be repaired after every use. It clogged up before I could complete two rooms & although the initial obstruction was cleared, the unit now plugs up before finishing one room. Hoover appears to have no desire to fix the design flaw or make it right with anyone who foolishly spent money buying this product - Hoover will not accept a return, or provide an exchange to another vacuum in their product line. A word of advice I received from the authorized service shop that repaired (cleaned) the vacuum - this type of problem seems common with Hoover bagless models, especially the new windtunnel 2; don't buy anything but a bagged Hoover product.

Ideal for cleaning carpets, this 12 amp bagless upright vacuum cleaner features patented WindTunnel 2 technology, located in the floor nozzle, which forces the rotating brushes and airflow to work in harmony. It lifts and traps the dirt, preventing it from scattering, so dirt ends up in the cleaner, not on the floor. The unit's Embedded DirtFinder display alerts users to areas of the carpet that may need more cleaning attention, while its edge-cleaning abilities help remove dust, dirt, and lint that collect along baseboards. Even more, moving from carpets to hard-floor surfaces becomes effortless thanks to the unit's Surface Command electronic carpet-height adjustment. Simply turn the dial for the desired setting.
When in the upright position, the vacuum automatically shuts off the brush, focusing all the power into the hose. Its Real-Time tool system makes tool use easy with a handle that instantly converts to a telescopic wand and a Tag-Along grip to guide the cleaner. The telescoping quick-release wand and super-stretch hose combine for 12 feet of cleaning reach. On-board tools include a hard-floor brush to safely clean hard surfaces and a pet-hair tool with powerful suction and rotating brushes for stairs and upholstery. For added convenience, the unit's self-cleaning HEPA filter traps 100-percent of dust mites, ragweed, and common grass pollens, plus it cleans itself every six seconds to maintain cleaning power--no need to ever touch or replace the filter. Other highlights include soft wheels, a 14-inch cleaning path, a brilliant headlight to illuminate dark corners, adjustable handle height, a 31-foot power cord, a bottom-release dirt cup, and a lifetime belt. The vacuum cleaner measures 11 by 15 by 44 inches and carries a one-year parts-and-labor warranty.

Pro-Team Super QuarterVac HEPA Backpack Vacuum Cleaner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My wife and I moved into a new two-story home 3 months ago. In our one story home we used a Kenmore brand upright which we still have and after 8 years of use it still works very well. Our dilemma is with the two story house and stairway. We went from a 2,400 sqft home to a 4,700 sqft home. Lugging the good old Kenmore up and down the stairs and covering all the nooks and crannies, including the stairway, is quite a workout. My wife and daughter rely on me to move the vac when it's time to clean.
So I sought out reviews on a backback vac, after all that's what the commercial cleaners use right. Consumer Reports only covers canisters and uprights and all other reviews covered commercial applications, so not a lot of homeowner info to go by. So what do you do? Make the plunge and hope it works.
Well after two cleanings we are VERY impressed! This think sucks and we can vacuum the house in half the time it takes with our upright. Besides carpet we have wood and tile floors plus a pet that, unfortunately, sheds. We can vacuum quicker than using a broom and dustpan. This thing is great and as quite (by vacuum standards) as our Kenmore. We have stressed wood floors, ceramic and natural stone tiled floors along with looped carpeting. I suggest getting the optional wood floor 14" attachment and the floor duster (has a cloth mitt) for wood shutters or blinds... yes it cleans them as well.
A little cumbersome at first getting this to fit on your back but once you're set tell people to get out of your way... you will be done in no time! By the way most of our neighbors use cleaning services. We're cheap and prefer to do it ourselves at our convenience. That's how we justified the cost.

Hoover U8361-900 Windtunnel 2 Surface Command Bagless Upright Vacuum Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Giving 2 stars on the suction alone. Hepa filter doesn't self-clean/turn after one use. A lot of dirt falls out from the hepa filter when removing the dirt box or collects behind the the dirt box if you don't pay very close attention to aligning it just right. I really liked how much dirt this thing pulls out of the carpet but it's heavy and dirt just falls out, a lot of dirt, when emptying the dirt box. I'm returning and not getting another after reading the other reviews in here that sound just like my experience.

Hoover 5507-900 Elite Auto-Rewind Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner Review

(More customer reviews)This vacuum is great. yes, the rewind feature is awesome but also the sheer sucking power of this vac will have you wonder why you ever sat on your carpet without cleaning it with this sucker fist.
Great features:
clear canister so all the dirt-a-phobes can see all the filth they are sucking up
canister has a thumb release so your hands don't have to get near the dust
super easy assebly
on off power switch at the base of the vac so you can turn it on with a toe
lightweight for a strong vac
snappy red color
no bags and a lifetime hepa filter(easy to wash)
3 levels of adjustment for bare floors, burbers and longer thick carpets
Oh yeah and it doesn't cost a lot and you do get an attachment for pet hair that works great on just about anything..lampshades etc.
Update: 2009 and I still have mine going strong despite a nicked cord (my fault) and babysitting the hairiest dog on the planet. The giant hair balls clogged the intake hose but I just had to detach it and take the garden hose and blast out the clog. New rule to live by: Don't let a dog into your house who's coat is in the "blow" stage.

Hoover SteamVac Supreme Deep Floor Cleaner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I don't know how Hoover is getting away with this, but this thing called a "SteamVac" is no more a steam cleaner than my Dyson vacum cleaner. This is nothing more than an old fashioned carpet shampooer. I've returned it and put a call into Hoover about the deceptive advertising. I was told if I "thought" it had steam, I should have read the box to be sure! Why would you read the outside of the box to find out if something called a SteamVac has a heating element? Wouldn't that be like going to a car lot and checking under the hoods to see if the model you want comes with an engine? Besides that I didn't have a box to read...I ordered this thru Amazon and
it came in an unmarked brown box with no writing and no pics, so even that suggestion was a bit redundant. In checking out other Hoover models called SteamVac...I am 99.9% sure NONE of them steam. I was told by a Hoover rep that the name "SteamVac" is simply a trade name! In other words being called a steam vac does not mean a thing. Like I've said I can't imagine how Hoover is getting away with this kind of deception, but I know I will never, ever, under any circumstance trust the name Hoover again.

Dirt Devil BD20010 Sonic Sweep Sweeper, red Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Dirt Devil Sonic Sweep cordless electric carpet sweeper is not a vacuum cleaner. It uses a rapidly rotating brush and "sonic sweep" vibrations to loosen dirt in carpet. The sonic sweep feature can be turned off when the sweeper is being used on bare floors. It is very light and easy to maneuver. It weighs just a few pounds and it's not more than about a foot wide. It looks like a nicely designed play vacuum cleaner for children, except that it has a full length handle. It is a simple machine with no filters to replace or clean. The dirt tray is very easy to empty. The huge surprise was how well this thing worked, when it worked at all. I bought one and used it a few times durng the next week or two. It didn't do as good a job as my upright vacuum, but it came remarkably close, with about a tenth the effort. But then it died. A part came loose and fell off. I returned the sweeper and got another. That one didn't last ten minutes! It is a shame, because this would be a very useful convenient sweeper if it were reliable. As it is, I have to give up on it and advise people to avoid it.

Hoover U5175-900 Fold Away Widepath Bagless Upright Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just bought this a week ago and so far, for what I use it for, it's been really good. I have mostly wall to wall carpet here and this unit has done a great job of cleaning it. My last vac was a Kenmore and for some reason did not do a good job on my carpet. Maybe that was a poor model or something, or it may have been broken and needed to be serviced. I'm not bashing Kenmore.
When I first got this one, I got a full container of dust/dirt each time I vacuumed. It has gotten my carpets MUCH cleaner. It seems well built and powerful, like it will last quite a while. It's a big improvement over the last vacuum I had. So far I'm quite pleased with it. If you have a lot of wall to wall carpet, I'd say this would make a good unit for you.

Hoover UH70010 Platinum Collection Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Pardon the vacuum pun, but really, this vacuum sucks... in the best way possible!
I ordered this vacuum on the recommendation of a friend who raved about the "sucking power" of this vacuum. I was in the market for a vacuum but never planned to spend quite so much, but her raving testimonial was quite compelling. I am thrilled that I took her advice because this vacuum is amazing!
I bought this vacuum to replace the two other dinosaur vacuums in my house. One was an old upright that used those old fashioned bags. Hair always tangled up in the belt. It was awful. The other was a bagless upright. Both did an OK job of picking up small surface debris, but I could pass that vacuum over and over and over again and still miss stubborn clingy lint or the small scoopable kitty litter granules. I had all but given up on ever having clean carpet again near the litterbox.
One of the first areas I used the Hoover UH70010 Platinum Collection Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum was on that stubborn litterbox area, and without sounding mellow-dramatic, it was absolutely amazing to see how well it picked up those small granules! One pass got 95% of them, and by the second or third pass, my carpet looked brand new again. I would go over that area 10 times with my old vacs and maybe pick up 25% of the litter, so the performance of this vacuum FAR surpassed my expectations!
In addition to the cat and her aforementioned litterbox, I have two shedding dogs in my house, and when I emptied the container, I had what seemed like an entire extra animal's worth of hair collected. Gross, I know, but it seems there is no challenge too big for this vacuum.
I will note that there are two very similar models to this vacuum: the UH70010 and the UH70015. They are the exact same vacuum in terms of power and appearance, but the UH70015 has an "clean/dirty" indicator light that uses some kind of sensor technology to tell you if your carpet is actually clean. My friend purchased that model and told me she drives herself crazy going over and over and over an area to get the "clean" light to appear. This UH70010 model does not have that indicator light. At Amazon.com, it appears the prices of these two models is about equal at around $399, but I found a steal on the UH70010 for $320 at another online retail site. To me, that light was not worth the extra $80, but if it is important to you, be careful about which model you order.
Regardless of which model you choose, I am certain you will be pleased with this vacuum's performance. It really is an outstanding vacuum.
If cost is a concern, I urge you to consider the value of the lifetime filters and the manufacturer's 6 year warranty. If you have to replace your lesser costing vaccums more frequently, you really might as well spring for a better performing and longer lasting vacuum. Your carpets will look better, and you may even save money in the long run.

Hoover Elite Cyclonic Canister Vacuum with Power Nozzle, Bagless, S3825 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Our Hoover wind tunnel vacuum was beginning to show some wear after 6 years (power cord insulation broken) so we decided to spend a little more money and buy a Dyson DC14. As soon as it was out of the box and turned on it made a horrible grinding racket so it went right back in the box and back to the store. I was gun shy about buying another vacuum and spent a lot more time trying them out. Having owned several Hoover vacuums including a carpet cleaner that I love, I began to think I shouldn't stray from a reliable brand but I was still open-minded as I shopped and used several different brands and models at the store. I found the Hoover Elite Cyclonic to be the best that I tried. It is very simple to operate, with common sense, intuitive hookups between the canister and hose and the hose and wand. The adjustable wand is heavy duty metal and clicks quickly and easily in and out of the power nozzle. The power nozzle itself has a light and a powered, spinning brush that I like. The cyclone canister holds plenty of dust and lint and is easy to empty. I was leery about buying a canister since I have always found uprights easy to move around but I have absolutely no trouble handling the Elite Cyclonic. The adjustable handle is a plus since I am tall and my wife is shorter, and we can both vacuum comfortably. An absolute plus given my worn electrical cord problem is the automatic cord reel, which winds the cord into the canister body at the touch of a spring-loaded button. The vacuum is powerful and pulled dust, lint, and hair out of the carpet as well as the Dyson I used, but with none of the noise and flimsyness that I experienced with that brand.
The ONLY minor complaint I have about this vacuum concerns the fact that since it is bagless, there is a slight dusty mess when emptying the canister container into the wastebasket. I believe this to be true with any of the bagless vacuums currently on the market, and it empties quite like the Dyson that I tried. This messy disposal is certainly offset by the convenience and cost savings of not having to buy replacement bags. I highly recommend this vacuum cleaner!

Equipped with a 12 amp motor, this bagless canister vacuum cleaner provides powerful performance throughout the house. Convenient fingertip controls on the handle make it easy to adjust the suction-control valve or turn the brushroll function off when switching from carpets to bare-floor surfaces. The unit's multi-stage cyclonic technology first separates large debris into the outer chamber, then it separates fine dust into the center chamber, and finally it uses a filter to catch any remaining dust allergens that may have gotten through the first two stages. Combined with its HEPA media filter, which traps 99.97-percent of dust and pollens down to 0.3 microns, the vacuum offers exceptional filter technology for cleaner air and strong, consistent, suction power. Disconnect the power nozzle by simply stepping on the disconnect lever; the wand can then be used with a variety of on-board attachments for above-floor cleaning of upholstery, stairs, drapes, and more. Other highlights include an adjustable-height telescopic wand for comfortable use, a headlight on the power nozzle, a large-capacity bottom-empty dirt cup, and a 25-foot power cord with automatic cord rewind for tidy storage. The bagless canister vacuum cleaner measures approximately 26 by 16 by 15-4/5 inches.

Eureka 4870PZ Boss SmartVac Bagged Upright Vacuum Cleaner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Eureka 4870 is consistently rated very highly by Consumer Reports. I am still scratching my head trying to understand why. There are certain vacuum cleaners that are brought in for repair that I can guess what the problem is before the customer tells me. This is one of those machines.
This vacuum cleaner is our number 1 repair customer. The Eureka 4870 is brought in for repair MORE THEN ANY OTHER VACUUM CLEANER. The only reason I have given this vacuum 2 stars, is because when this vacuum is working, it actually does clean very well, however the number of times you will have to bring the vacuum in for service, outweighs how well it cleans. Let me first tell you about the Pros to the Eureka 4870, as this can be summed up with a few sentences.
Pros:
The Eureka 4870 motor actually is a very high output motor, and creates a decent amount of suction power. The motor is the only metal component to the vacuum, and is the only part on this vacuum that I have never seen problems with, or had to replace.
The vacuum has a nice selection of on-board attachments. Included is a nice on board hose, an extra wand for above the floor cleaning, a nice long crevice tool for those hard to reach nooks and crannies, a dusting brush, as well as an upholstery tool. The "power paw" (as standard attachment on the 4870HZ) attachment leaves a lot to be desired, as most of the time the rotating brush driven by suction stops as soon as you put it on upholstery, or stairs.
The electrical cord on this vacuum is a nice long 30 foot cord, allowing you to be able to clean more square footage without having to go and unplug the machine from room to room. This feature will actually save you substantial time on vacuuming.
The vacuum bag is a "top fill" bag. This means that the hole where the dirt goes into fills from the very top of the bag, allowing you to really jam pack the dirt in the bag, and filling the entire bag before there's any suction loss. A lot of other vacuums have the hold on the side of the bag, which is really pointless, as you have to throw away the bag before it's completely full.
The price is probably the best feature on this vacuum. For right around $150, the machine is very affordable, and feature packed for this price. You do get what you pay for in terms of quality.
Cons:
Weighing in at 25 pounds, this machine is VERY heavy. If you have multiple floors, and you have to take the vacuum up and down the stairs, you will surely hate this vacuum after the first few times of carrying it up and down stairs. The carrying handle is not very conveniently placed either, causing the customer to have to pick up the machine by the handle which makes it seem even more heavy.
The Eureka R belt "Extended Life Belt". The belt on this machine was a new design by Eureka. The belt is actually not made of rubber like most belts. It is actually a plastic belt. Eureka claims that this belt is "Extended life" however some of my customers are replacing this belt 3-4 times a year. If you vacuum anything that gets stuck in the roller brush while vacuuming, the belt usually stretches to a point where the brush will not spin, or if it does spin, it will spin very slowly, and sometimes even stop as soon as you put it on the carpet.
The roller brush itself. A typical Eureka roller brush, this roller brush (sometimes referred to as a "beater bar") has two PLASTIC bearing caps on each side. If something is vacuumed up into the brush while it's spinning, a lot of the times, the brush bearing caps will actually melt! Eureka does not sell these caps separately either, and you'll have to purchase the entire roller brush assembly if this happens. Do not expect to get any more the 1 year out of the roller brush before some melting happens. The plastic bearing caps are not sealed either. If you have pets in the house, or females (some males are also included) that have very long hair, this hair will get inside the bearing of the roller brush shortening the life even more. One way to prevent this from happening is take the roller brush out, taking the bearing caps off, and remove the hair, thread, etc that has wrapped itself around the bearings. You should do this every 2 weeks for best results.
The dreaded Carpet/Floor switch. Out of all the problems this machine has, this is by far the most common. Not only is the most common, it can also be the most expensive, as the amount of time and labor that it takes to replace the switch is very difficult, and you will have to take it in to a local repair shop to fix it. If you talk to any independent vacuum store, and ask them about this repair, 9 times out of 10 you they will tell you how difficult of a repair it really is. This is my least favorite repair to do out of ANY VACUUM CLEANER. You basically have to take the entire roller brush housing apart, and fight with a spring to fix it. The design on this switch is the problem. If a customer does decide to purchase this vacuum from me (I certainly don't recommend it) I always open the machine, assemble it, and I always test the machine before the customer leaves my store. I have opened probably 10-15 of these machines brand new out of the box, only to test it, and find that the Carpet/Floor switch is broken. Brand new out of the box there should never be any problems.
The last issue on this vacuum is the filtration. Eureka claims that this machine is "True HEPA filtration" vacuum. I have found this to be more like a "False HEPA filtration" vacuum. One of the many cool gadgets we have to diagnose and test vacuum cleaners is what's called a Particle Scanner. This very expensive machine will actually measure with lasers how many fine dust particles are leaking from a vacuum per minute of use. I measured the Eureka 4870 like I do all vacuums I sell. This machine registered 25,000+ fine dust particles per minute of use being leaked out of this machine. Now this number is definitely lower then any bagless machine on the market, however for Eureka to claim that this machine will help allergy and asthma sufferers is just false. If you own this vacuum try vacuuming in the sunlight, and you can actually see some of the larger micron dust exhausting from the machine. This is only the larger particles you can see. The most damaging particles to humans are the ones that are not visible to the naked eye. If you or your family has any breathing issues such as Asthma, Emphysema, or allergies, please beware of this vacuum.
You can kind of tell the quality of a vacuum cleaner by the warranty the manufacturer will give you. The Eureka 4870 has a 1 year parts and labor (required by the government, I'm sure they would give less if they could). Consumer Reports loves this vacuum, but as a vacuum repairman, I would tell anyone that asked me to STAY AWAY FROM THIS VACUUM CLEANER.

Kirby G4 Vacuum Cleaner - Loaded Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently purchased a used Kirby G4. This machine is over 10 years old and still cleans better than most other vacuums, including my highly rated Bissell model which recently broke. But, the primary reason I bought a Kirby was that I was sick and tired of replacing my vacuum cleaner every 2-4 years due to wear and tear. There is no other vacuum cleaner which lasts a lifetime. 99% of those produced these days (like many consumer products) are made primarily of plastic components. Kirby is the only brand, that I know of, which has consistent after-market of 10, 20, and even 30 year-old machines because it is made of metal and designed specifically to endure. It is definitely worth the $1000+ pricetag for a new one, but I avoid this expense by simply buying an older version which cleans as good as a new one.

Hoover WindTunnel 2 U8315960 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have 2 cats in a small apartment, and fur and litter are a HUGE problem. I used to have a stick vacuum that didn't work at all for either and barely picked up any dirt. This vacuum is leaps and bounds better than that one. I got it at a department store on sale for $180 tax included, and it came with 12 HEPA bags (approximately a 2 year supply). My apartment looked disgusting for 2 years before I finally could afford to buy a new vacuum, and since I couldn't afford a $600 Dyson, this was the perfect solution.

Patented WindTunnel 2 technology, located in the floor nozzle, forces the rotating brushes and airflow to work in harmony. It lifts and traps the dirt, so it won't scatter back into the carpet. Dirt ends up in your cleaner, not on your floor.
