This canister delivers deep carpet cleaning and strong suction that out-performs many uprights, particularly on pet hair and embedded dirt. However, you must accept a bulkier, heavier design with some durability concerns and a learning curve for maneuvering the canister and powerhead.

Loved by buyers

  • The suction digs out dirt that even daily vacuuming missed, often pulling up a full bag of debris on first use.
  • The motorized Pet PowerMate lifts stubborn pet hair and sand from stairs and upholstery without tangling.
  • The foot pedal makes switching between hard floors and carpet quick and hassle-free.

Buyer concerns

  • The powerhead can nosedive into carpet, making forward pushes hard, and it may disconnect when tilted under furniture.
  • The canister runs hot enough to cause concern, and the hose connection at a straight angle strains and may tip the unit.
  • Build quality feels cheaper than older Kenmore models, with reports of motor failure and broken brush rolls within months.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Pet PowerMate attachment really resist hair tangling?+
Yes, the unique design keeps hair from wrapping around the brush, and it pulled pet hair off a blanket that regular vacuums couldn't clean, though it may need hair removed from the bristles occasionally.
Can it clean under low furniture?+
Not effectively. The powerhead doesn't go flat, and the wand attachment often disengages when angled, so it struggles with beds or sofas with less than about 4 inches of clearance.
How often do bags need replacing?+
With typical use in a 1,800 sq ft home, a bag lasts roughly one month, and generic replacements are affordable and widely available.
Is it suitable for people with allergies?+
The HEPA filter traps 99.7% of dust and dander, and several allergy sufferers noticed a real difference in air quality after switching to this vacuum.
