eureka NEU182B PowerSpeed Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner, Lite, Purple

The suction is actually very good! I mean its so good that it will suck up the cord and cut it. Please be careful to keep the cord away from the vacuum head, otherwise you will be in danger of cutting the cord and getting electrocuted from the inside wires of the cord. Check the cords frequently in case you are not the only one who vacuums.

bought this as a backup vacuum (or a downstairs vac - Im done lugging one up and down the stairs). I needed one good on hard floors since most of my downstairs are tile, and I needed one good with pet hair ... the retractable cord is what pushed this model over the top. CONS: Ill start here because there arent many. *not the least bit self propelled. pushing this vacuum over thick carpet is a workout *and it is old school built, no sharp turns or easy maneuverability. no big deal since I use it primarily on tile. PROS: Ill admit, theyre very specific to my needs *not a whole lot of replacement parts to be concerned over ... a washable filter and a belt I think? easy to dump canister and clean up. *the retractable cord!! it doesnt have a super long cord, but I cant tell you how much I dislike winding the cord. this is a breeze. *the absolute best vacuum I have used on hard tile. there is no kickback on small hard bits (dry cat food, usually). the vacuum contains it without kicking it out from underneath and spreading the crumbs elsewhere. *doesnt blow pet hair around instead of picking it up. *and the oddest flex of them all ... the LED LIGHTS! I have a longer haired cat that sheds everywhere and is obvious. those haira tend to clump together, but I also have a short hair cat that I would swear barely sheds, until I ran the vac in a dark room and the LEDs lit up EVERY SINGLE HAIR. I had no clue how much hair was on my tiles. I now use it, in near dark, to catch them all. Ill update if I have issues, but seems to be good so far.

Super light weight, easy to carry up and down stairs. Did amazing on my shag carpet. Super easy to clean. Love love love

This unit is very lightweight and easy to use. It has great suction. Works as well as our previous much more expensive vacuum cleaners but is much easier to push. As I am getting older ease of use becomes a bigger deal.

Excellent for dog hair suction (with 3 big dogs inside 24/7, I have a serious dog hair issue). The LED light helped me find the blonde hair in my tile floor. The accessories are easily accessible and functional. The rewind/retractable cord works flawlessly. However, its movement is linear, with zero maneuverability to swivel around. Its reach under furniture is limited by the handles range of motion. If it lowered all the way down, then it would fit under the beds. The handle release is a bit odd, as it requires stepping on the base of the vacuum, but even when doing so, it makes a very loud click and snaps, as if Ive broken something. Not sure if thats normal or if I am in fact breaking it. Overall, its a keeper, as it meets my specific needs, but may not be for someone needing reach and maneuverability.

I’ve had this vacuum for two years and it’s the best vacuum I’ve ever owned. It’s light weight and the suction is just amazing. Can’t recommend it enough.

My old Shark finally gave up, and I wasnt looking to spend hundreds on a replacement. This has wonderful suction and gets the job done, so thats all that matters to me! Its been doing great so far. Dislikes: -Vacuuming my area rugs is difficult. The suction is TOO strong. I really have to push it along. -Emptying the top canister is a bit of a hassle. You have to remove the filter. Overall, SUPER pleased with my purchase! Its standing up against 3 large dogs, 2 toddlers, and 2 adults!
