Initial impressions,
I was shopping for a vacuum lately and see this on sale at Fry for $39 !!(refurbished? didn’t say but I know Fry is kind of sneaky)
I thought it was used or floor model but store clark told me they have 4 in stock and I can pick 1 that I like. I realize that contrary to the latest vaccum cleaners which are uniformly bagless this one still uses a bag but the price is just too good and I actually prefer an “oldfashioned” vaccum that uses a bag because a lot of reviews I read about bagless vaccum were complaining about how messy things can get when emptying them.
The setup was very simple — I don’t even need the manual. Out of box only 2,3 pieces need to be hooked to the main body and you are ready to go. The hoses and tubes are still in sealed bags and there was no sign of usage. if this is a refurbished machine then they did a very good job.
Pros: Very strong suction (the most important), coil rewind, a nice headlight, HEPA filter, VERY EASY to roll/move around( while it is not light it is certainly not heavy to me ), bags (easy to remove)
Cons: bags (costs $$ but …) HEPA filter (it is a small size so I don’t how long it can last)
** people complaining that it dosn’t work on bare floor — they need to use the attachment on bare floor, in my case it works fine
The initial impressions are pretty positive –> straight forward design and sturdy built. I realize that it dosn’t have fancy colors and fancy shapes of parts but If you not buying it as part of your Art collection you should be fine.
P.S. you need to buy type U6 bags not the type U3 that are listed with the machine, U3 works but it is too small U6 fits the bag chamber
