Vacuum
Itâs a really good vacuum. For the price. But the often on switch has problems.

Really good quality commercial vacuum.
Best commercial vacuum we buy 5 a year and as a bonus let the housekeepers take home end of year so they take care of them really good also.

Lightweight!
I bought this for the cleaning person in our synagogue. There is carpeting throughout the facility. This vacuum is lightweight and durable. It works very well and is very easy to clean with the dust cup.

this thing is pretty flimsy. Assembly was a headache
For a “Commercial Vacuum”, this thing is pretty flimsy. Assembly was a headache, as instructions were not very clear & I’m still not 100% sure it is put together correctly. It is lightweight and not as costly as a “real” commercial vacuum, but I would not purchase again. The dirt cup is very cumbersome to empty, but it does a good job at the actual vacuuming part.

Long lasting
FIRST OF ALL. DONT LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE WITH THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS. These vacuums have been around since the 1950s. They haven’t changed there design. My mom bought one in the 60s and it died in the early 2000s. That speaks for itself. They are commercial vacuums with out the special filters and attachments. Love my vacuum it does what it needs too. And it cleans carpet like no other vacuum.

Easy to use
While this vacuum does not have a hose attachment, we have another option if needed. We replaced a heavier vacuum. Our carpet cleaner suggested this one. It works well, not heavy and easy to empty the dirt.

Very reasonable price and built to be dependable
I have had and continue to have this exact same model for over 20 years. Bought this one for a friend who’s vacuum died. It cleans all carpets very very deeply. Extra long cord reaches almost the whole house from one outlet. Yes, to answer some other reviews, it is older technology. So what? your vacuuming a g.d. carpet! Not flying to the moon! And yes dumping the dirt cup involves SEEING the dirt. Take it outside, SNOWFLAKE, shake the bag, dump the cup and hold your breath and be happy you don’t need to buy special vacuum cleaner bags!

junk
I’ve now ordered three of these vacuums. The first one seemed to be a good deal, so i quickly ordered 2 more. The second one received never worked. The roller didn’t spin and burned through the belt in a few minutes. The first one ordered quickly followed suit. Now, the third one is also failing.I’d think it was a fluke if it hadn’t happened to ALL THREE. Now i’m out of the return window, so I’ll have to pursue this through the manufacturer instead of Amazon.A complete pain. Pay more. In this case, you definitely get what you pay for.
