    Great little vacuum! October 26, 2010

    I have finally learned - you get what you pay for!  And this vacuum is worth it.  It's compact, lightweight, quiet, and it does a great job.  A couple tiny quirks - I'd like it if the light on the power head stayed lit if I am working on bare floors and have turned the power head spinner off.  And where the wand detaches from the power head, that could be a bit easier to use.  Just my personal preferences.  I think this thing works like a charm!

    Electrolux canister Vacuum December 21, 2010

    Very bad experience with this vacuum, never buy it again. I have it for 5 years and after the first year continuously have problems with the vacuum. lose suction always, have to change many parts. Every couple of month a new problem. customer service is terrible. Not helpful at all. I will buy this time Dyson and I hope it works great.

    Long Live the Queen of All Vacuum Cleaners February 25, 2011
    By Mcgillicutie of Fort Lauderdale, FL

    My beloved old tank style Electrolux Ambassador needed a part I was told was no longer available so I comparison shopped and found this newer lightweight "Oxygen" Hepa filter tank Electrolux that is so easy to move around and has the two most often used tools stored in the hose handle that I can interchange easily while cleaning. Other brands seemed to have copy-cat features but they don't work or store as well. The tank is relatively smaller and lighter than others but has VERY powerful suction. To me, the functionality and graceful design is genius - it makes vacuuming a graceful sport. Replacement bags (I researched this too) are easy to find in Sears or KMart online or in stores or through Electrolux online or by phone. Also, I retained the SEARS Master Protection Agreement from my old tank so this spiffy machine can benefit from the included yearly maintenance each covered appliance gets. The cord is about 20 ft long and rewinds into the tank.

    The Electrolux vacuum cleaner has great suction! February 23, 2011
    By vacuumseveryday of Norwell, MA
    Pros:
    Great suction,light, and small,retractable cord

    I originally bought the electrolux canister, but it kept kinking up on the hose. The hose does not spin at the base. I returned it and bought a kenmore canister but there was definately a difference in the suction. I went back and decided I could live with the hose of the electrolux. My new electrolux does not get kinked....it must have been a defect in the first hose. So far so good!
