Eureka 402A Mini Light Upright Vacuum Description
Clean carpets, bare floors, and stairs in a snap with the Mini Light upright vacuum from Eureka. Weighing just 8 pounds, the machine is lightweight but not flimsy, has a 10-inch cleaning path, and includes a three-way power switch for greater cleaning range. Equipped with a dual-motor system, the Mini Light allows you to choose between safe bare-floor cleaning (no brush-roll action) or more aggressive carpet cleaning (with motor-driven brush roll). Eureka s bagless design includes a transparent dust-collection cup, so you can see at a glance when it needs emptying. The system eliminates the hassle of bags, and, even better, helps maximize the efficiency of the machine with regular emptying. Popping the cup off to dump it out is simple -it releases and reattaches better than many similar models -and it includes a washable filter. The collapsible handle is especially useful on stairs and for storage. The machine s cord retainer, dual power-cord hooks, and comfortable loop handle are helpful extras. Eureka s Clean Air system protects the motor from damage.
Eureka 402A Mini Light Upright Vacuum customer reviews:
Great Little Vacuum I have had this vacuum for about 2 years now. I originally bought it because my apartment was tiny and only had 2 small carpets. It definitely does the job. Now that I am in a house, I use it just for my bedroom, and after 2 years it's still sucks up the dog hair better than our big vacuum. It's very lightweight (my 10 year old neice can pick it up with ease) and changing the canister is quite simple. I gave it 4 stars for 2 reasons. One is it would be great if it came with an additional filter and two, because even though it's small and fits in tight spaces, attachments would make it 5 star worthy. All in all, money well spent. Good beginning for a custom cordless vac project Eureka once made a cordless vac the 570B that was practically identical to this one. I wanted to see how good of a cordless floor vacuum I could get and liked the reviews on the discontinued Eureka vacuum. Since this one is the same except it's 110 volt AC, I bought it on sale at Kmart, then proceeded to replace the existing suction motor with a 12 volt motor and made a custom 14.4 volt nicad battery pack for power. I discovered that the brushroll motor worked as is with the 14.4 volt battery, which was cool.
Now that it's all finished I have a cordless vac with at least as much performance as the plug-in version, which runs for about 10 minutes maximum per charge. Since I'm in a very small apartment this is more than adequate for my needs. The dust cup needs emptied frequently and fibers from my carpet have to be pulled off the brushroll, but such things are to be expected when using a cordless vac. I consider this vacuum pretty remarkable for only consuming around 150 watts in operation. Great lightweight, compact vacuum Used it in my apartment for 3 years and still use it in my house. Its size and weight are great for storage and cleaning stairs. Easy to empty. Would recommend to anyone for easy maintenance cleaning. Excellent for small spaces Does great on my tiny condo...fabulous for tiles, marble and carpet. I highly recommend this tool as part of your cleaning gadgets if you live in a small space. This vacuum is both light and strong, I use it all over my house. Good buy! I bought this vacuum when the only carpet in my house was a 5x8 area rug. It worked great for that purpose. Since we moved, our living room has nice new carpet. I used this vacuum on it for a year, and was pleased until I bought a much more expensive and heavy duty vacuum. For area rugs and bare floors, etc. I would highly recommend this vacuum. It SUPER light weight, and easy to store and use--a great buy. For actual carpet, though, I guess I'd have to tell you to spend more money on something that will help maintain the integrity of your carpet.
