This one works, unlike some others . . .,
Longer: I have a Eureka 4870, and bought a “Eureka R” belt at the local hardware store only to discover that it couldn’t disengage from the brush roller. After fiddling with it for a while, I decided to chance buying another online. Happy to say that this one fit, and the vacuum is now working perfectly. Apparently not all “Eureka R” belts are R. (Best said in a piratey voice.)

The Belt Will Work for a Long Time If Properly Adjusted,
I’ve noticed complaints about the belt breaking frequently on the Eureka 4870. I think that is due in large part to the manual operation of the height adjustment.
The height should be adjusted to the highest level that actually works on the carpet being vacuumed. If it is adjusted too low, the resistance from the carpet versus the powerful motor on the 4870 stresses the belt too much and it breaks.
I’ve used the same belt on my 4870 for well over two years and it seems to be as good as new. I have a fairly thick carpet and adjust the height to the next to the highest position for most of the carpeted areas of the house. We have some rugs and other carpeted areas where I need to drop the height down, but usually the third level down from the highest works well on those. Properly adjusted the 4870 cleans very well, fluffs up the carpet, and extends the belt life.
The bottom line on this is if you don’t stress the belt by adjusting the height too low for the carpet; the belt can last for years.
