Massachusetts guy
Greater than one weekI just replaced the carpeting on my second floor with engineered hardwood and was looking for a vacuum that was light and maneuverable. Initially, I looked at rechargeable stick vacs, but they all had very small capacity and seemed overpriced. I then looked a small corded vacs. The Eureka Whirlwind bagless appealed to me because it looked very light and the reviews called it powerful, which it is. Ive been using this vacuum for about a month and Im happy with my purchase. Here are some pros and cons: Pros Inexpensive bagless lightweight strong suction great on hardwood floors head has retractable bristles easy to empty retractable cord clever built in brush attachment Cons not great for carpets smallish head no crevice nozzle limited capacity tippy backwards, especially for tall users vac power control slider on handle easy to hit accidentally I like bagless vacs for their simplicity and they are good for most chores. However, if you plan to use this vac for very dusty jobs, like plaster dust, you may want a bagged vac instead. Bagless machines will do occasional dusty jobs, but usually require cleaning of their filters thereafter. Good luck.

> 3 dayI cant find anything bad about it for the price! I wanted something for cat hair on wood floors. It sucks it right up and I can get under things like the couches! I only gave it four star because the head looks of lower quality, but it works great . If it had a beater bar the cat hair would build up on it? I have a Persian and she sheds a lot of hair! I dont know why I didnt look at these sooner! I only have a few scatter rugs but it works on them also..strong suction though though.. The cord is fine, it holds more dust then I thought it would, you only open one snap on the bottom to empty it. You do not have too take the filter out? I would buy this again! Ill update this if it breaks !

> 3 dayI have been looking for about a year for another vacuum cleaner. I have a very nice Hoover Windtunnel upright and it does a great job, but I bought it when I had carpeting throughout the house. Since hardwood floors arrived and I only have one bedroom with carpet (keeps the noise down) it is not as enjoyable to vacuum the entire house with a larger and heavier vacuum. So my search finally decided on the Eureka NEN110A Whirlwind Bagless Canister Vacuum Cleaner and I am glad I did. It arrived yesterday after ordering it only Friday, thanks Amazon. Needless to say, I had to take it for a spin. Here is what I can report for the newly arrived. 1. It is pretty. Yes, pretty; I dont like ugly appliances. All the bells and whistles are great, but if the unit is ugly, then I dont want it. You know what I am talking about, you seen other vacuum cleaners that look like they jumped out of a 1950 sci-fi movie. Hello, the commercial vacuum that is short, round and has eyes painted on it, or the Shark Apex or the Shark DuoClean Powered Lift Away Speed Vacuum that looks like a tower that could easily fall over, or almost all Oreck. Oh yes, I know this may step on a toe or toe, but sometimes the truth is ugly and hey, this is my review. But this unit is good looking, racey, futuristic even, and I love the color blue they made it in. 2. Power - plenty of suction power. As a matter of fact I had to adjust back the vacuum power using the handy built in suction adjustment on the hand. No problem with suction power. 3. Ease of use - this is were it really shines. It is around 8 pounds so it is quick and easy to maneuver all over the house. Easy to get down under furniture as the head swivels around, turning and twisting your floors clean. The dust cup is small, but so is the vacuum cleaner, but it is easy to pop out and dump, snap closed and your ready to go. I hate when people whine about having to empty the canister so often, seriously, why do you want to leave all that dirt in the vacuum for days. It even easily rolls over its own power cord. My Kenmore canister that weighed over 20 pounds couldnt even roll over its own cord, it would get stuck and I would have to lift it. 4. The built into the wand brush and crevice tool worked really well also. The wand, the handles plug securely into each other and the vacuum with a nice little snap. Easy to undo also. The auto-rewind on the unit is great too, a nice feature at this price point. The power cord is 16 feet, but if it was possible to have another five feet would be awesome, but I am not complaining, I just unplug and move to another area and plug into a different outlet that is closer to the work area, after all our houses come with multiple outlets. 5. Lifespan, this is always the unknown, but the unit has a one year manufacturer warranty and I purchased 3 more years under the Assurance plan. So I feel I am covered. Time will tell and Ill update these comments if something goes wrong and also if the unit keeps working just fine.

Greater than one weekEven though I have a Hoover upright (Wind Tunnel) for my flat carpeted floors, it needs a bag, its loud, it doesnt have good suction and definitely a hassle on carpeted stairs which I now have with a recent move. This little vacuum is perfect and the price is right also. Adjusts for use on hardwood floors. It is lightweight, maneuvers well, easy to clean and dump the dirt (no bag!!) The assembly is super quick and the suction is awesome. I would recommend for stairs but maybe not the whole carpeted house, just because it has such good suction it makes it slow going but it would be a great workout!

> 3 dayThis vacuum is perfect for getting under furniture and hard to reach places. It’s lightweight which I love and easy to clean. I was looking for a vacuum that would get under my sofas so I wouldn’t have to move them and this one does just that! The suction is amazing. I highly recommend!
