The Bottom Line: One of the great features of the Fantom Fury is the bag-less canister. The clear window canister allows you to see what particles are being picked up.

Over the years, many vacuum manufacturers have developed more contemporary vacuums for the household. The Fantom Fury bag-less vacuum has been introduced as a distinctive easy to use vacuum cleaner. After plugging in the vacuum, the Fantom Fury has an easy glide motion with its sturdy handle. The weight of the Fantom Fury can be classified as medium. In comparison, the Fantom Fury is similar in weight to a Kirby vacuum. Two rear wheels and an easy to maneuver handle guide the vacuum. Using the Fantom, you have to press down with your foot on a petal to release the handle from its upright, locked position. 120 AMP Power is applied by a simple on/off button located atop of the vacuum's canister.

One of the great features of the Fantom Fury is the bag-less canister. The clear window canister allows you to see what particles are being picked up and how much of the canister is filled. Aided by a certified HEPA filter, the Fantom Fury will pick up most small particles. The HEPA filter is designed to determine the size of the object. In my experience, the Fantom Fury did not vacuum popcorn seeds. However, it did vacuum dog hair and other various small materials. The vacuum also comes with attachments such as a furniture brush, a crevice tool, pet hair tool, and a brush for wood or linoleum floors. The attachments are connected to an attachable hose that is easy to maneuver. These are great additions to the Fantom Fury.

The Fantom Fury vacuum does require a good amount of cleaning and emptying. It is recommended to empty the canister after each use. The canister does detach and is easy to clean. Also the HEPA filter is detachable. Unfortunately, the filter is not cheap. The accessories and filter can be purchased at department stores like K-Mart and Wal-Mart. The Fantom Fury should last for many years.

I rated this vacuum four out of five star because of its bag-less feature and it's useful accessories. The value of the vacuum is worth the cost. The fact that the filter replacement after one year (recommended) is a negative. Also, it is a hassle that the vacuum does not pick up sizeable objects like other vacuums would. However, the Fantom Fury is very durable and reliable. I purchased this vacuum after months of uncertainty. We thought of purchasing this vacuum for some time but hesitated due to it price at $270.00. Now, it has become an asset to us.
