- Reviewed in Canada on November 18, 2017The problem I was trying to solve with this vacuum is that I was tired of lugging a huge canister vacuum all over my rather small house where I have three floors and not a lot of room to maneouvre. Most of my floors are low-to-mid-pile carpet and for those that aren't carpet, I don't normally vacuum them - I mop and/or sweep.
Most of the upright vacuums that are readily available in stores seem to be heavily-marketed to look like they're more than they (like what is done with modern cars), and with this comes a significant amount of bulk and loss in functionality. I wanted a vacuum I could put in my closet when I wasn't using it, and something that went flat to vacuum underneath beds and other low-lying furniture.
You'll probably know by looking at this whether it's what you want - you are likely looking for function over form. It turns on and off. It has one height only and the cord is manually wrapped around cord retainers at the back. It's light (I can carry it one-handed up the stairs). It has good suction. It's quite noisy. It doesn't have a light. It doesn't have attachments. It is just what I was looking for.
For cleaning things other than floors, get Oreck's canister vacuum (BB1200DB or similar). It's a nice bridge between large canister vacuums and cheap handhelds and wins again in very similar ways.
