Most owners agree this vacuum provides exceptionally strong suction that deep-cleans carpets and traps allergens in its bagged system better than many pricier models. The main trade-off is its heavy, loud operation and the risk of needing a costly brush roller replacement if used heavily on carpets.
Loved by buyers
- •Its suction power outclasses many uprights, pulling up embedded dirt and pet hair on the first pass.
- •The bagged design with HEPA filtration is a relief for allergy sufferers, containing dust and dander without messy canister emptying.
- •The extra-long 35-foot cord means you can clean large rooms without switching outlets.
Buyer concerns
- •The vacuum's weight (around 22 pounds) and loud noise make it tiring to maneuver, especially on stairs or for smaller users.
- •Stretching the hose more than a few inches causes the vacuum to tip over, making above-floor and stair cleaning frustrating.
- •The direct-drive brush roller's bristles can wear down in a year, and the replacement part costs nearly $300, which many owners find unacceptable.
