(More customer reviews)I did not purchase this item through Amazon, but I could not find any reviews for this item anywhere, so I thought that I would write a review and help someone out who might be researching vacuum cleaners.
I paid about $120.00 for this vacuum cleaner.
I purchased this vacuum to replace my Rainbow Vacuum cleaner.(The rainbow worked awesome, but it was such a pain to use that I gave it away.)I wanted a canister vac, and I have mostly hardwood floors with a couple of rugs and a carpet.
My initial thought when opening the box was that it is a very nice looking vacuum cleaner, and it was a little more than I expected.I personaly think the size is perfect.It is easy to carry, and not very heavy, but it is not designed to be carried while cleaning, or worn, as some canister vacs are.(It is bigger than those type of vacuum cleaners.)
The casing and all of the hoses are plastic, but they seem very sturdy.The pieces connect and disconnect quite easily - with minor wiggling or pushing to get the hose pieces to lock into place.It wheels around quite easily as well.
The powerhead carpet cleaner works awesome!The head is motorized and self propelled - and pulls across carpets with ease.It seems to do an excellent job of cleaning.Since the powerhead is self propelled, it does not work well on small throw rugs, since it pulls the rug along with it.(My son and I solved this problem - he stands on one end of the rug while I vacuum to keep it from pulling.)I was extremely impressed with the powerhead.The powerhead has a hard floor switch, so that you can operate it on hard floors as well.This is handy, however the hardfloor brush attatcment works better than the powerhead for cleaning hard surfaces.
The brush attatchments work pretty well.I would say that the floor brush attatchment probably does not 'suck' quite as well, or work as effectively as a higher priced vacuum, but it does a very good job.It does an excellent job of picking up popcorn, dirt, fine sand, etc.It does an OK job of picking up bigger things (small pieces of paper, paper clips.)It does not suck up things such as legos, or marbles, etc. unless you take the floor brush attatchment off.If you are one of those 'suck everything up with no mercy people' - you might be minorly frusterated that the hose is slightly narrow in places, meaning you can't suck up larger pieces of paper or big wadded up tissue, etc.
The one I purchased included a 'turbo furniture brush' attatchment ... (I think that's what it's called.)Just a word to the wise - this is not motorized.It does have a rotating brush, however it is powered by suction.This didn't really bother me, and the attatchment still works pretty well, but online it sometimes appears to be motorized, and it is not.
Overall, this vacuum is exactly what I wanted, something not too small, but not too big, it cleans carpets and hardwood floors alike, and is easy to use.It also had some bonuses that I didn't really pay attention to while ordering, such as the automatic cord retraction.The retractable cord works great.I have had no problems with it retracting properly, and it makes it so much easier to store.It also has a bag change indicator - this works, but by the time the indicator shows you need a bag change, it's quite obvious that the bag needs changing anyway.(The vacuum simply loses suction.)
I love that it has a bag rather than a dust cup - the bag is extremely easy to change and install, and I used the vacuum for a few weeks before it needed changing.It's so nice to just toss the bag out, rather than mess around with a dust catcher.
I recommend this vacuum to anyone on a bit of a budget, and I have no regrets buying it.I have used it now for almost a month, and there has been no change in performance, it works just as well now as when I bought it.I've read a lot of complaints about other vacuum cleaners in this price range, such as the attatchments falling off, losing suction, breakage, etc. but I haven't experienced any of these problems with this vacuum.Great product!
