Pros: cleans and filters. great sucking power. 12 amps. true hepa filter
Cons: Needs a longer hose, clogs easily
Summary: After being “vacuum-less” for the past 3 years, I figured it was about time to get myself a good one, and make it worth the purchase. Ewww, you say...she didn’t have a vacuum! Well..before I begin, let me explain that I was in Germany for 3 years ... read more

Pros: Powerful suction
Cons: Clogged repeatedly. Cleaning filter is messy.
Summary: I purchased the 4680 'big cup' at my local Sam's discount warehouse for about $129. I used it for several weeks. I noted that it was powerful, was comfortable to push and was fairly sturdy. Unfortunately, I found that the 'cup' that would catch the ... read more

Pros: Gets EVERYTHING, see instant results
Cons: Hose suction is weak-almost non-existent
Summary: I bought a used Whirlwind on ebay for $27 and it was in town so I didn't have to pay shipping. So, for that price, I would've been happy had it just picked up anything. The whole reason I was getting it was because I had taken a piece of masking tape and ... read more

Pros: Just about everything
Cons: Short cord, not hepa
Summary: This is a review of the Eureka Whirlwind Lite Bagless Upright. The 6.5 amp 410 series one, not the 12 amp. I've used this vacuum 3 times and it has yet to show me any major problems. The filter (not hepa) is washable and reusable. It also comes with ... read more

Pros: Still looking.
Cons: Expensive filters, no suction, heavy, etc.
Summary: Our old vacuum died, after serving well for 4 years. We wanted a bagless this time around. We shopped and found that they were very expensive. Even worse was the filters that need to be replaced every few months, and cost between $25-35 dollars. We ... read more

Pros: Very Strong. Nice design. Easy to use.
Cons: Hose not long enough.
Summary: It was a toss up between this and a Hoover. I read many times that Hoovers are a nightmare with repairs. I have a Hoover steamvac and I know firsthand how the can break down on you. The Eureka was a lot lighter than my previous Cyclonic Vacuum ... read more

Pros: Nothing!
Cons: THIS THING IS A PIECE OF CRAP!
Summary: I've had this thing for a little less than a year. And nothing has ever been right with this thing. The pick up sucks. And if you plan on using this every day (for instance if you have kids) you'll never get this thing through the first month. It smells ... read more

Pros: Sucks up cat hair quickly and effortlessly, decently easy to clean.
Cons: Tips over easily, too many costly parts to replace regularly.
Summary: I got this vacuum as a Christmas gift. I asked for a Dirt Devil bagless vacuum, but after reading reviews and checking prices, I opted for the Eureka. This vacuum is not as great as I thought it would be, but I am still very happy with it.
I live ... read more

Pros: NO MORE CAT HAIR!
Cons: Needs an upholstry attachment
Summary: Well, to start off, I didn't even really want this vacuum. My grandmother wanted to know what to get me for Christmas, and I told her about the Whirlwind. Basically, I only wanted it because it was A) bagless and B) bright yellow. However, now that I ... read more

Pros: powerful, bag-less, powerful, powerful
Cons: heavy, awkward, need another vacuum to clean it
Summary: I have had this vacuum for almost a year now, and I definitely recommend it. Just a note, I have very short carpet - almost like berber, but not quite. I don't know how it works on longer carpet.
I bought it because my old vacuum broke, and ... read more

The WhirlWind is a good sturdy vacuum ... read more

Pros: Great suction power
Cons: Do I really need to see what comes out of my carpet?
Summary: Well, I bought my Eureka Bag-less Whirlwind when my old Eureka was biting the dust.
At first I loved it. I couldn't believe all the crap on my floor! I'm a major clean freak and I was thrilled at what this new machine was sucking up but at ... read more

Pros: It's bag-less
Cons: not the easiest to empty
Summary: Let me start by saying that I purchased this vacuum for use in a home that I was renting that only had area rugs. So we were just looking for something that was fairly basic and inexpensive, but would get the job done.
We shopped ... read more
