Too heavy
We owned one of these for awhile. It was so heavy, just pushing it back and forth strained my back, never mind lifting it upstairs. So my husband took on the chore. (He'd picked it out to begin with). And it really did a great job on the carpets. But after a month or so, he hated it too, so he hired a housekeeper. She quit after a few weeks (maybe she had "back problems"?)
We bought another one, this time I picked it out. It's a Hoover Wind Tunnel, not sure of the model #, but it's great. Not self propelled, but acts like it, and does a great job on the carpets & flooring. Not heavy, either. Best advice: check the weight on these things along with the other info. No matter how good they are, or how many bells & whistles they have, it's no good if you can't use it.
(The only problem I have now is "no excuse" to get me out of vacuuming!)
Bosch Upright vacuum
Without a doubt this is the quietest vacuum I have ever used. Its great to have an upright that the cord retracts. I have white carpet and this cleans like no other. I saw a review somewhere, and the woman said it was the heaviest to push, however if she had set it for doing the carpet and not a hardwood or tile floor it works like a dream. The best is its great job of sucking up the dirt and its QUIET!! I did not buy the bagless as I had one and the dust was all over when dumping it, defeating the purpose of vacuuming. Buy it, you will like it.......love it!!
Horrible
This vacuum has a lot of issues. First, the bag is really small and becomes detached very easily. This leaves a huge mess to clean up. I wonder how helpful the filtration is if the dirt doesn't even end up in the bag? The bags are also not easy to find and expensive. It is also hard to tell when the bag is full by the indicator. Second, it is really heavy. Third, when you are using the tools, the hose becomes detached. The hose is also too short. We have had this thing for less than two years and are now going to look at the Kenmore Progressive and the Dyson.
Good vacuum for the money.
This is a good, powerful, compact machine that has a strong vacuum. Unfortunately, when it runs so powerfully, overtime, it will overheat causing the thermal fuse to shut the machine done until it cools off. Unlike other vacuum cleaners that ventilate the hot motor exhaust, this exhaust fis essentially "covered" by a filter and the top of the cannister. It was only a matter of time before this machine would have a melt down. The dust bag is not a small as others have described it (it is longer than most). However, the long term reliability of this machine is the main downside of this vacuum. I say it was good for the price: $89.00 close-out.
Love it and hate it!
I've had this vacuum for almost two years now. It is one of the best cleaning vacuums I've ever owned - great suction, great hose that's easy to use. I bought it because it you can't burn the motor out - if it begins to overheat, it shuts itself off. Problem is... it shuts off after 2 or 3 rooms. And beware - if you live outside of San Francisco there isn't really anywhere to take this vacuum for service. And there is no technical support over the phone or on the internet. I own A LOT of Bosch appliances and this is by far their worst ----
To summarize:
It is heavy - impossible on stairs.
It is hard to tell when the bag is full.
The bags are expensive and you must order online.
It shuts off when overheated - can be good, can be annoying.
Would I buy it again? Hard to say.
