sjorbn's Full Review: Oreck XL2000 Bagged Upright Vacuum
I have enjoyed my Oreck XL2 for three years. With three cats, 2 long-haired, and one black long-haired dog, it has been a joy to operate. The light weight has been a treat. Also, it's ability to go under my bed to vacuum up cat hair has been a real advantage. It gets up as much hair and general dirt as my Hoover Power Drive Supreme and is much lighter. Since I have an extremely bad back this vacuum was an answer to prayer. The only problem I have is a screw with bad threads that will not come out, so I am unable to change the belt. By having the Hoover to compare to the Oreck, I have been able to really evaluate the performance between the two. Belts have lasted about the same length on both. Both require removing screws to replace belts or clean inside the vacuum. Both remove the same amount of dirt and hair. But the Hoover works poorly on the bare floor by blowing sand and other loose dirt away from the vacuum, where the Oreck picks it up. Now my only problem is finding a place to repair my Oreck without having to box it up and send it off. Otherwise, I am very pleased with the Oreck.
