Vacuum Reviews

I purchased the Alto Drywall Vacuum with Auto Start from Amazon three months ago as a replacement for my old Shop-Vac brand machine when I couldn't stand the noise of the old vacuum any longer. The Alto machine is primarily for use in my small garage shop, but it has proved to be far more versatile than I expected.

The Alto is very well made, quiet, and powerful with a first rate fit and finish. The only accessories that come with it are a hose, two metal extension tubes and a solidly made metal floor tool with a brush insert, but the metal end of the vacuum hose is a perfect fit with the attachments made for the German Miele vacuum cleaner.

The Alto is too large and heavy for every day household use, but the combination of the Alto Vacuum and the Miele attachments results in an excellent quite shop vacuum that can be used as a very versatile, supper heavy-duty, domestic vacuum to clean the cars, the house, and other finished interior spaces when heavy duty vacuuming is needed.

This machine is much more expensive than the other shop vacuums that are available. However, it is a much better made and far quieter machine than any of the other shop vacuums, and it is far more vacuum cleaner for the money than the Miele. So far I am very pleased with the Alto machine and have no regrets about spending the extra money to get it rather than a less expensive machine.

This is the ONLY Vac for me! It is incredibly quiet and the filter bag captures ALL of the drywall or dirt you can put through it.

I was looking at Oreck's upright vacuums (because I wanted a light, but strong vacuum) and then I found this Bissell Prolite rated better in Consumer Reports. I decided to try it and I love it. The upright is light, has great suction, and is $150.00-$250.00 cheaper than the Orecks I was looking at buying. It is a little loud, but still worth it. I definitely recommend this vacuum pair!

I grew tired of pushing around my 10 year old vacuum that weighed a ton, so this time around I wanted something lightweight but powerful. This combo pack with the Prolite and Propartner was the answer to all my cleaning needs. The Prolite is so lightweight and easy to use, but really picks up the dirt. There are two fans for increased airflow (yes, I did my research) and this really helps for edge cleaning around baseboards. I can actually watch the dog hair being sucked up. I use it on my carpet and hard surfaces, and it works wonderfully.

When I was looking into purchasing a vaccum I noticed that the Prolite didn't have any tools or attachments, which was something that concerned me. Bissell has solved that problem by including the Propartner canister vacuum. I use this to clean the stairs, upholstery, and even my car. It has a switch on the handle to adjust the suction power which is really neat. I also love the retractable power cord. Why hasn't anyone else thought of that yet?

Between the lightweight (but powerful) Prolite and Propartner canister vacuum, the dirt in my house no longer stands a chance. If you're looking for a new vacuum, give these a chance and I know you won't be disappointed.

It is powerful (little loud and it does blow from the side vents quite strong). It has a little built in brush which is great for sofas. The basket is small and needs to be emptied frequently to get the full power of the vac. I wish it had a stick to I didn't have to bend the whole time I was using it. When it's clean it will pick up the scattered sand from the cat box which many others don't do and it does a great job on dog hair. It has a little extension nozzle for getting under the frig and in the corners. I use this and the Eureka Boss stick vac, with rotating brush for carpets, daily and only need to use my full size vacuum a couple times a month. It's definitely worth the money.

This hand vac is great! It has perfect suction and a good amount of run time. The suction hole is a good size and the debris cup is large, easy to dump and rinsable. Filters are super easy to find and order at dirtdevil.com. The quick flip crevice tool is very handy. This vacuum is very nice. I've owned it a month and use it often to clean up after my kids. It works beautifully.

The Dirt Devil appliance is perfect for stairs, corners and anywhere else that is difficult to reach with a standard canister or upright vacuum cleaners.

I strongly recommend this small vacuum cleaner to anyone.

What a great little product. The extra-long cord is really usefull. I ran out of bags, so naturally I came here to get more. Very easy to install and discard. Would'nt have it any other way.The five stars is naturally for the whole appliance, bags included! Go for it.

And we have owned a bunch. We just replaced our Fantom with this Eureka...so we are familiar with bagless/Hepa units. We liked the Fantom but were swayed by the great reviews we saw for Eureka's. This is an order of magnitude better. Our carpets feel softer and look revitalized. Unbeleavable the cat dander and fine silt that this pulled from the carpets. Call me crazy, but even the air in the room smells cleaner. Compared to our Fantom, the filters are easier to change and are more reasonably priced with this unit. We picked this model because we did not need all the bells and whistles on the higher priced rigs. We are extremely happy with our decision. We made sure that we could return it if not completely satisfied...we're gonna keep it. EXCELLENT basic vacuum...super performance.

I just received my vacuum and I just love it. My Mom has the 5740 and it's great too, but I like this one better because of the added features...15" width, the stretch hose and furniture guard are great! The bonus Copperhead I think will work out well for cleaning my car and hard to reach places.
This purchase was to have a second vacuum on hand and I think this one will be getting more activity. If you don't own one - you gotta get one. It's amazing how powerful this vacuum is and how deep it cleans. All I can say is WOW!

This vacuum is pricey but you wont be disappointed in its performance.The motor is powerful and quieter than in most canister vacs.The suction is very good.Kudos to Hoover for making another great vacuum!

Pros:
- Looks fantastic.
- High quality design with lots of cool touches (e.g., retractable extension cord)
- Very easy to assemble. Everything just snaps in.
- It's bagless. Very easy to maintain and clean.
- Very quiet for a vacuum.
- Continuously variable power level.
- Cool carpet mode.
- Sucks well.
- HEPA (High Efficiency Particle Air) filter traps dirt, pollen, etc. for cleaner air.

Cons:
- It's a bit expensive.
- A bit heavy overall.

Hoover's S3755 vacuum is designed for two kinds of crowd: (1) those looking for high quality and easy to use vacuum and (2) those that hate vacuuming. I hate vacuuming. My fiancé nags me every week to vacuum, and I complain how the vacuum (Dirt Devil's upright model) does not suck well and that it's noisy, heavy, and too cumbersome to clean it up afterward. She got me Hoover's S3755 as a compromise. What a cool vacuum!

I feel like a kid for saying this, but when I vacuum with Hoover, I feel like playing with a toy. And I mean that in a good way. Finished in combination of metal and high quality plastic and painted in metallic silver, it resembles Volkswagen's New Beetle. Since it is a canister design (I rather call it an elephant design), the nozzle portion is very light and more flexible. It can easily travel where upright vacuums cannot.

When I first took it out from the box, I felt like a child opening a Christmas present. Everything just snaps in like a Lego, with a satisfying click. Once assembled, I powered it up and wow, it is QUIET! Slide the power level (which slides very smoothly) and it increasingly whirs louder and sucks in with greater force. Hitting the carpet button activates the motor - it rolls forward automatically. So cool!

Of course, none of this matters if it does not suck well. And I can say it sucks very well. In no time, the place became much cleaner. This Hoover model is equipped with HEPA filter, which is great for those with allergy. I can't wait to go home and vacuum some more.

I love these vacuum bags because of the electrostatic liner that catches the smallest particles yet does not require a seperate HEPA filter like most others (which incidentally is ususally an extra item you have to buy and is sometimes hard to find). With this filter you do not get the cloud of dust in the room that others I have used leave behind which is very annoying and leaves you wondering why you vacuumed in the first palce. The fliter is easy to get to and change. Though not HEPA rated this filter IS the next best thing and a LOT LESS trouble and expense. If you are buying the Hoover Canister vacuum machine I suggest buying a couple of packs of these bags along with the machine.

I HAVE SEVERAL ALLERGIES WHICH INCLUDE HOUSE DUST, DUST MITES, AND CAT DANDER. I HAVE TRIED OTHER NAME BRAND VACUUMS WITH THEIR ALLERGEN BAGS AND/OR FILTERS. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DO MY OWN VACUUMING OR EVEN BE IN THE SAME ROOM WHILE SOMEONE ELSE WAS VACUUMING, WITHOUT HAVING AN ALLERGY ATTACK, UNTIL I TRIED USING HOOVER TYPE S ALLERGEN VACUUM BAGS. THEY WORK GREAT! EVEN MY DAUGHTER, WITH ALL HER ALLERGIES, WILL ASK IF SHE CAN DO THE VACUUMING FOR ME.

It is so handy- it has a little hole in the back of the handle, so you can hang it somewhere- I hang mine right on my kitchen wall. I use it every day!

I picked this set up because it was so cute, but as it turns out, it's been great to have on hand when my toddler tosses her cheerios from the high chair. It's compact and I like how the whisk fits right into the dustpan. And the price is right, too!

These wire ones are much easier to use than other kinds available. Buy these and you will be happy.

These are great clamps. Simple to connect, they hold fast, and are very inexpensive. No need to spend twice the price on other ones...

I've had my Roomba for over a year, and I don't use it weekly as they suggest (or even bi-weekly) and my filters are falling apart. Backwashing with an air canister hasn't worked, though perhaps this is because my place is INCREDIBLY dusty.

Back-wash the filter after each use with canned air and they will last almost forever.
