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

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.

Im a happy camper. This vacuum has the sucking power of my first Eureka (late 1970s) and I love it. It isnt big, the cord isnt long enough, and attachments dont exist but it cleans so very well. On hard floors. This same fantastic sucking power makes it hard to use on wall-to-wall carpet, the picture of area rugs is a clue. If you have shag rugs (really?) lots of carpeted rooms and few hardwood rooms, this isnt your dream vacuum cleaner. Just being able to get the Cheerios off the dining room floor and small pebbles from our entryways makes it a winner for me!

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.

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.

I cannot believe how light this vacuum cleaner is and how powerful it is. Its suitable for hard floors I wouldnt purchase it to use on carpet. I dont think Ill go back to a stand up canister vacuum again

Updated Review: After struggling with this thing to vacuum my cellar two or three times, I replaced the broken hose on my Hoover and went back to using that on my cellar floor. This vacuum is just too much work for me to use, maintain, and store. Ive retired it to a corner, where it will sit until I can find another home for it. Original review: I bought this to replace my Hoover commercial portapower hand vacuum, the plastic stretch hose on which broke in two at the handle after three years of intermittent use. So, I decided to try something different. The hose on this does not stretch, a plus for me. Ive only used it once so far to vacuum my hardwoods, area rugs, and cement cellar floor. Will take some getting used to. The suction on this thing is phenomenal, due in part to the design of the floor attachment, which is flat and hugs the floor. I read the instructions and experimented with all the settings and combinations on both hardwoods and flat pile area rugs. It works well on my hardwoods using the carpet settings. The hardwood setting hugs the floor too tightly, making it difficult to move. The carpet setting works on no pile area rugs only if you pull the wand towards you. If you try to push it forward, it gets hung up on the carpet, regardless of how you use the settings. It does not work at all on my pile carpets. The hose is a bit cumbersome because its pretty stiff, but Im tall and I can work with it. So, I finished vacuuming and even though the dirt cup was only half full, I decided to empty and wash it. Unfortunately, the dirt cup does not separate from the foam filter housing (you can remove the foam filter, but not the housing), so to wash either one they both get wet. And, when I checked the foam filter, it was filthy and required washing as well. Very cumbersome to work with. Currently, the entire housing and filter are laying in front of my baseboard heater trying to dry. I got this to use on my cement cellar floors, and it appears to be fine for that using the carpet settings. Picks up cat litter, dust, and small debrs. There is a small brush for upholstery, but no decent crevice tool, which I need to clean my dryer screen housing and vents. I do like the retractable cord and that the wand attaches to the machine for storage. I also like that it has wheels and I can easily pull the vacuum behind me. Ill use it for a bit and see if I can work with its shortcomings. I like to keep my vacuum dirt cup clean with each using. Not sure how well that will go because cleaning and drying is a time eater and I have no sink in my basement. Just not a good fit for me.

People complained about not doing throw rugs but right by your hand is an airflow adjustment for all floors and it works well when open for my throw rugs. I wish the adjustment lever were tighter because sometimes is opens when I have it closed and my hand pushes it. Also on the roller head is a clip, push it and the underside lifts for carpets. Someone complained that the metal section comes off, well I cant see how that can happen if you lock it into place. The vac is perfect for people with long hair, no rollers and brush to get hair wound on. It is light but I wish the attached crevice brush tool was removable to place on the end of the longer pipe to clean my bath vents. The only thing I dont like is it needs another tool for upholstery and the pipe alone is difficult for ceiling spider webs the pipe would scratch the paint, the included tool is just not right for ceilings it needs a brush but maybe I can find one. It is easy to use, love the cord rewind, easy to pull the tank off and easy to empty it. The tool included does swivel all the way round so it worked flat under the bed.

Bought a house with tile floors and this light weight vacuum does the job and easy to clean canister. I only have a few throw rugs to clean its ok on those but great on hard surface. No accessories to fall off while you use it they are all part of the vacuum

This 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!

I live in a 1 bedroom apt. and am replacing a 25 year old Hover upright. First off, easy to assemble. Light weight, easy to tow. Plenty of cord to reach about. No bag with a useful detachable way to dump the dust or other stuff vacuumed up. The brush can rotate to reach under furniture is a plus. The handle has 3 suction settings so on the lowest setting it wont try to suck up a throw rug in the bathroom. Extended, the handle brush works fine for cleaning window stills and vacuuming furniture. Lowering the brush extension on the brush works really well on hard floors as well. The tube adjustable connection between the hose and brush allows people of different height fit right in. Over all, A well thought out vacuum.
