Most owners agree this Kenmore delivers powerful suction that pulls up dirt and pet hair other vacuums leave behind, across hard floors and carpets alike. The main trade-off is accepting cheaper materials and a few frustrating design quirks in exchange for that cleaning performance at a budget price.

- •Simple floor switch adjusts between carpet and hard surfaces without bending down.
Buyer concerns
- •Motor failures and overheating can happen within months, which raises long-term reliability concerns.
