Smart choice in a vacuum – one of the best buys you will ever make!,
You will not get a better vacuum without paying around three times as much. I have used many high and low priced vacuums, and comparable models to this sell for as much as $600 or more. If you want the best bang for the buck and a vacuum cleaner that you will not be throwing away or replacing within months or years, this is the machine for you. This vacuum cleaner is far superior to anything you will find in any department, discount, or home improvement store. Stock up on vacuum cleaner bags, you will be needing them for a long time to come as this machine is built to last (and this cleaner sucks up a lot of dirt – enough to fill those bags up fast!!!). Bags that fit this cleaner can easily be found at vacuum and sewing repair shops, or online and are not expensive either (about the same as eureka, hoover). This is a rare case where you are getting pro quality without the premium price tag. Even if you are only THINKING about replacing your current vacuum, I would recommend this one. What a value! A final note, my opinion is that this machine is better suited to carpet and rugs than hard floors.

|Professional Grade Vacuum,
I bought this vacuum from another web store. The man who sold it to me talked to me about it over the telephone. He said the outside was plastic but the motor is all metal construction. I purchased this about two years ago and paid $199 for it. I bought it to take to the beach for cleaning cottages during the summer. I have dragged this vac from house to house, up and down the stairs and all over different heights of carpet. The outside looks roughed up but the motor in this vac is a winner! I have sucked up everything from peanuts to paperclips and it just kept on going. As a matter of fact, no matter what was sucked into it, the belt never broke though after numerous uses, and I use that description lightly, I replaced the belt because it had stretched and slipped off, but never broke. I have never smelled a burning smell from it like the infamous Hoover brand, which I shall never buy another product they make. I do believe the stretching of the belt came from the fact that the bags can be filled so full they become very heavy (there’s lots of sand at the beach), but the suction continues until you change the bag. The vac I have has also been banged into and around all kinds of furniture, and it never scratched any of it. The rubber bumper did dislodge but like I said, it cleaned many cottages in addition to being dragged in and out of my vehicle.
The only drawback was that I purchased the attachment set for $99 and that was a total waste of money. The long hose and attachments were used for hard floors and in tight spaces. The long hose would not stay attached and lost suction in a short period of time. I ended up throwing away those attachments.
All in all, I would purchase another one of these to tackle any type of carpet. And yes it is a heavy vac, hard to do the stairs with but is worth every dollar I invested in it.
