eureka WhirlWind Bagless Canister Vacuum Cleaner, Lightweight Vac for Carpets and Hard Floors, Blue

My 7 year old grandson loves using it so much he vacuums all the time. My house has never been so clean. Great purchase. Besides this, we have an area rug that gets lots of sand from people coming in to go to the restroom from the pool. This vacuum gets the sand out in bucket loads.

Ive had a few good vacuums over the years (Im 65) but probably didnt start using them with any experience until the early 70s. Ive owned Kirby, Hoover, Miele and my most favorite was/is my Rainbow Cleaning System. 6 years ago I moved into a tiny house and my Rainbow was just too big and cumbersome for 400 sq ft. I purchased a inexpensive Eureka Blaze and was surprised at how easy it was to use yet actually did an adequate, no frills job in picking up the dust/dirt/pet hair and debris from my 100% vinyl plank flooring home. After almost 3 years, it began to lose suction and I again started my research into a small vacuum that was inexpensive and easy to use in my small tiny house with all hard surface flooring. My search led me to EUREKA WHIRLWIND bagless canister vacuum. THIS THING SUCKS ... as in a phenomenal way for any size vacuum cleaner ... I was blown away at such a fantastic job it did at picking up everything! I do have a few small rugs that it did a very good job on but because of its superb suction, I had difficulty keeping them on the floor. I first cleaned all 400 sq ft ... even though it was recently done just 4 days prior with my Eureka Blaze. Wow ... it filled up the canister around 3/4 full of stuff! Like most people have mentioned ... the retractable cord is nice ... and I found for a tiny house a 16 ft cord was plenty big ... but something perhaps for others to consider. Im 6 ft tall and enjoy having the telescoping metal portion totally extended and LOVED how flat the vacuum head pivots almost flat to go under furniture, etc ... a huge plus! The built-on retractable brush/crevice tool is a good addition for all items at eye level or below ... but it is totally impossible to use the attachment on my blinds or ceiling fans unless I hold it up by the handle ... doable but not ideal. Since Im pretty tall and was limited by the attachments length/reach ... I bought one of the recommended inexpensive set of attachments (6 piece set) which included a totally necessary adapter in order to make the attachments function with the Eureka Whirlwind. I attached the adapter to the end of the metal telescoping wand and then all of the brush/crevice attachments fit right into the adapter ... the results were perfect! I was able to clean the upper part of higher windows and even my ceiling fan! For those reviews who said these inexpensive attachments do not fit ... my guess (???) is that they forgot to use the provided adapter. Truthfully, for the price ... even with adding on the cost of the adapter with attachments ... it did a really, REALLY great job ... LOVE IT! As far as who I believe would benefit from purchasing this vacuum cleaner ... definately those who have all or mostly all hard surface flooring. Also, I think that people who are on a budget and dont mind a canister style vacuum cleaner ... they, too will love this. For me ... for this tiny house with solid surface flooring ... it is almost perfect. What would have made it perfect? Well, if the adapter and attachments would have been provided ... then it would pretty much have been perfect!!!

Like that I can replace my old dirt devil. Small compact and super easy to use. I love the canister cleanup its very easy. Only downside of it when you pick it up it loses a bit of suction. Otherwise its 5 stars for me.

Ive owned and used this sweeper for 2+ years. It works well on hard floors and the removable canister empties like a charm. Excellent sweeper for the price. When I first received this sweeper, the retractable cord feature didnt work. I returned it, they sent me a replacement, and Im so glad: the retractable cord feature is so stinkin satisfying. I dont have to deal with wrapping up the cord when Im finished and its awesome. I havent owned many sweepers in my life, but I am glad I purchased this one. - 25 year–old female

Its a good brand, which is why I continue to buy them; however, it doesnt have the suction of my old Eureka cannister Mighty Mite. I found that at a repair shop and it has been going for about 15 years. Its wearing down, which is why I bought the new one-which I put into a closet until the Mighty Mite totally breaks down.

My vacuum that’s supposed to be multi-surface just blew stuff around on the hardwood floor but did fine in carpet or area rugs. My new house is all wood floors, but I also have rugs everywhere. I vacuumed two rooms with the Eueka and got an inch of dust and dirt and whatnot in the canister. I cannot wait to vacuum the rest of my house!!! I’ll take pictures and update soon.

Purchased to clean Persian-style carpets in home, its a great little machine! I have tile floors so no need of a hefty vacuum, and this provided the suction and portability needed to clean the carpets. It also did a great job on the car interior, carpets and upholstery. Used it to help clean up the vents also. The cannister is small, so its not for everyone, but for area cleaning, its perfect. Its very light, nearly anyone can handle it.
