Piece of junk!!!!!! I gave this 1 star only because 0 stars is not an option. I wish I had read these reviews before I bought this piece of junk vacuum!! Like has already been said, it works great the first couple times - then forget it! The dirt and pet hair get caught in the accessory hose and clog it up and it has to be taken apart to clean it out. I get pelted in the ankles with dirt that it is throwing out. The dusting wand is a joke. It constantly comes apart and falls off the vacuum. Save your money - buy a different vacuum!!!! Terrible product This is one lousy vacuum. It spits out dirt instead of vacuuming it up, and my vacuum clogs each and every time I use it. You have to take the machine apart to clean the two filters - a very dirty process. After you finish "vacuuming", you will find dirt all over: the dirt that was never picked up, and the dirt spit out by the vacuum.
This was a gift or otherwise I would take it back pronto. I didn't know a vacuum could operate this poorly. I thought I could trust the Eureka name. I was wrong. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. Do not Buy Believe what you read--If you own this piece of junk for more than a few weeks you know that you wasted your money. Clogs after a short time vaccuuming (ten minutes) making it necessary to completely disassemble, clean and reassemble tank, three filters and usually hose just to continue. Makes vaccuuming a worse time cosuming chore than it already is. This is a total piece of s@#t. Terrible waste of money I have been having this same problem most people here are identifying. It does not pick stuff up very well and it spits the dirt back into the floor or carpet. It's like "reverse" vacum! I thought that maybe something got stuck accidently in the hose but after reading the posts, this is apparently a design problem. Don't waste your $70! Great Product I have had this vacuum for about a year and I love it. Very easy to use and picks up 3 times more dirt than the previous hoover I had. (Also a bagless upright) but with that the hose kept ripping and cost 5 bucks each time. This machine is great and has 3 filters and mine also has the extra smaller rotating head which is a great to use for smaller spaces, although not in this model.
The filters are easy to clean and so far just needed cleaning and there are adjustments for different levels, mine is set on 2 for carpet.
So I too am surprised at all the negative comments as mine has worked great for over a year and still my best vacuum to date!
