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

I like the appearance of the vacuum but it doesn’t have the strongest suction the way I would like it to be. The hair also gets tangled in the small wheel on the floor brush roller. It should also have a longer brush so that it can remove hair from the carpet effectively.

Much easier to vacuum under furniture. Emptying the canister gives one a sense of accomplishment and amazement, kinda fun. That the canister is cleaned after each use helps bypass the unpleasant smell of a vacuum with a bag. More economical and earth friendly without the bags. Actually fun so far.

For a cheap vacuum this works very well. My only concern will be the plastic parts and how well they will stand up over time. But so far this does a great job.

Light weight, liked to auto retacks ion cord, Nice for light work, I give It a 5 star...

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

I bought this Eureka canister vac after struggling with a standing Bissell for years. While the Bissell seems well-equipped for carpets, it (to my frustration) blew dog hair around on our hard floors, and tossed back out bits and crumbs instead of actually sucking them up. My parents recommended a canister vac for hard floors, so I decided to try this one as it was low cost and I could return it through Amazon should it not work out. Thankfully, after unboxing and using it to vacuum all of our hard floors today, I am pleased beyond belief that it indeed sucks up pet hair (the bane of my existence) with ease. It is also small and light. The dust cup is easy to empty after use, and it is satisfying to see all its sucked up in one go. I came across a wad of threads from a rope toy my dogs play with, and the Eureka sucked it right up, and I saw it immediately in the dust cup with the rest of the debris it had collected. Our Bissell could never. The swiveling head is convenient for getting into spaces our Bissell couldnt reach. The retractable cord is a blessing, though I wouldnt have minded the cord being a bit longer -- but it isnt a hardship to plug it into a different outlet as I go. It also seems a bit quieter than our Bissell. The on/off button is easy to tap with my foot, though you want to press it all the way, or else it will only start to come on or off but return back to its previous setting when you release the button. This is not a problem though, more of a tip to press it firmly enough for it to register. The Eureka has the best qualities of my parents old canister vacuum and the newer style vacuums, in that it is excellent at picking up hair and debris on hard floors, but is also less cumbersome and bagless. One feature of many canister vacs that deterred me was their needing bag refills. With the Eureka, thats not an issue! Overall I would recommend the Eureka to others with hard floors who struggle with pet hair. Our dogs shed year-round, and their fur is by far the biggest obstacle I have faced in vacuuming our floors. This vac makes eliminating dog hair easy. It does the simple task I ask of a vacuum: to suck up dust, fur and crumbs from the hard floors. Since I have only used this vac once, I will keep my eyes peeled for issues in the future. I am hopeful that it will stay a reliable cleaning tool for years to come.

Has very good suction. The main thing I dont like is the hose assembly. The brush that wont come off. I purchased some accessories that have brushes that I can use for up high cleaning. I got this vacuum to use on my outside porch.

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.

I fought my wife in getting this vacuum. We already have a shark duo which does hardwood and carpet. Plus, we have a large push duster for the fine particles for hardwood floor. We have all hardwood throughout the entire house, dusting on a regular basis is pretty much every weekend job. Weve owned a Kirby, which I really like but they are bulky and heavy and its a pain changing out the attachments no matter how quick and simple it may seem. The one thing though is that the Kirby had great suction. Sadly, the wife hated it, and my sole defense of the great vacuum wasnt enough to save it from the Goodwill pile. So, we got the Shark Duo, which I also love has great cleaning power great on hardwood, tile, and carpet. When we moved into our new home which is 100% hardwood throughout my wife thought the shark wasnt getting the fine particles. We got new rollers for it and I thought it worked great. But sadly she wanted something that really could get between the grooves. So, she bought this Eureka Whirlwind which I thought was a waste and wouldnt be that great. Especially for the price she paid. After the first few days, I was amazed. This really has very strong suction and has a hard bristle which is very effective in getting things that are harder to vacuum up but without scratching the wood floor. I had some drywall work and typically none of the vacuums have really handled the drywall dust all that well. This little thing did a great job. My only complaint is that the filter seems a little flimsy, but it says its washable. Which we tested and it held up under the sink getting washed out. If youre vacuuming really fine particles, youll need to clean the filter more often as that will affect how strong a suction youll get. After a while it started making a slight whrip sound at start up, but I think it was due to the dry wall dust. After cleaning it really good it quit making that whrip sound at start up. The auto cord rewind is a great feature, and the big rear wheel really does make it easy to maneuver. Stair vacuuming is a cinch with this little thing. I do wish the hose was just a little bit longer, may be another 5 feet or so. I cant say enough great things about this vacuum for hardwood floors. Very impressed. I hope this helps anyone thinking about this little vacuum.

I have three big pups lab, golden and at. Bernard who shed non stop, lol. This lightweight powerful easy to use floor vacuum works amazing. Does not scratch floors picks up all the fur balls. I love that you can rinse out the canister after use. No more dusty bags!
