 Eureka Quick-Up |

| These little vacuums are the greatest thing since sliced bread. For people like me who can no longer lift heavy things it is just ideal for doing my cleaning.' I am amazed at the pick-up power it has. I highly recommend it for anybody with sore shoulders and neck or sore legs and knees. It makes vacuuming so much easier and it is just as efficient as by big heavy Electrolux!! |
Best cordless I've found

I have a 2,000 sq. ft. home with some hard floors, some carpet and three cats who shed a lot! For deep cleaning I use a Kenmore Progressive which is excellent but weighs about a ton.
So bought the Eureka Quick-Up for small jobs when I don't want to lug the big vac, and to clean the stairs.
Well, my first impression when I tried this unit was that it really picked up dust! On a mix of medium-pile carpet, tile, and a microfiber sofa, it collected quite a bit of cat hair and other dirt in a single run. It's also quiet and very easy to handle. Disposing of the dirt isn't the best system I've seen (slightly messy) but then again, you expect that on any bagless model.
Having tested quite a few other models (including the more expensive Electrolux Pronto cordless, a corded Bissell 3-in-1, and two Roomba robots that failed within a month) this is definitely the most effective I've found at any price, mainly thanks to a well-designed power brush. Highly recommended. |

This little vacuum is exactly what I needed. It picks up the crusty bits around my daughter's highchair and the furry bits that the cats and dog leave behind, and the various bits on the kitchen tile. I own a large vacuum for my rugs and this was not purchased to replace that, but to compliment it.
It is very lightweight, not too noisy, has enough cord to move from one room to another in my small space and, most importantly, fits on a hook in my cramped broom closet. I can grab it, sweep and put it away in a matter of seconds. It even has a rotating bristle that can be turned on if you need to use it on carpets or rugs.
What more could you ask for? I LOVE it. |
A great vac for an awesome price!

| This is my third eureka stick vac (this specific model)and I love them! Bought one for my old house, my mom's house and my new house and if you have as much tile as I do, this is the thing to buy! I have small children and often vacuum once a day and this saves lots of time--only downfall is the cord is VERY short-as one reviewer said get an extension cord--nothing is perfect. I would recommend this vac for hard surface floors-I use my larger vac for my small area of carpeting--this thing is awesome!! |
What do you expect?????

| IT IS WHAT IT IS!!!! A great LITTLE vacuum. I does extremly well on low pile carpet. I compared it with an Oreck XL and it stands up quite well. I IS NOT a BIG vac and should not be treated as such. But for everyday quick sweeps in place of draging out the big one, I don't think there is a better one out there. (I have had a few !!) If you do not think this vacuum works well, you have done something wrong. |
A MUST HAVE FOR PET OWNERS

| I did some research on Amazon for handheld vacuum's and was undecided between this model and the Eureka 58A Hand Vac. They both have good reviews for the quality of cleaning of pet hair. I have two dogs and a cat, so I needed something lightweight that worked. Well look no farther! I was cruising through Wal-Mart and happened to find this model for $1.00 cheaper and decided to try it. I hate anything to do with cleaning, but once I used it and saw what it could do, I will be religiously cleaning my furniture from now on. It is fairly easy to use, you will need both hands when cleaning the armrest of the furniture, but it only took about 8-10 minutes to clean 2 couches, 3 chairs and a large ottoman. It has a switch to go between carpet and floor mode (carpet mode) should be used when doing furniture. The handle included makes it switch easily between upright floor vac or hand held vac. I used it on chenille and heavy fabric furniture. The heavy fabric took a little longer, but still did a great job. Worked fairly well on carpets, wouldn't recommend this for heavy carpet vacuuming though. This is a must have!! |
Fantastic Value!

I am thrilled with the performance of this small lightweight vacuum. It cuts my sweeping and pickup time in half in comparison with a broom. I didn't purchase this product expecting it to replace my clunky canister vacuum for carpeting, just to do a quick light cleaning, and it surprisingly does a very good job. The filter can be clogged with dust bunnies and fine dust and still have good suction. I remove the collected debris, empty the cup and few taps of the filter outside the house or inside a small plastic bag and it's ready to go again.
For the price, this little vacuum is a great value for under $50! |

| I purchased my vacuum at a bargain store for much less than the advertised price here. I had to buy it. The suction is stronger than i thought. It actually lifts my carpet up while vacuuming. I love that i can use it for carpets and bare floors. It left my new carpet looking like when i bought it on thanksgiving day and the filter was jammed with dirt! Good bye broom, hello eureka! Cord is a little short..i do half the room and then switch plugs or i just add an extension..its not even an issue! I recommend this! |
I love this vacuum!

| I've had one of these vacuums for years. They didn't used to have the filter-cup, and the dirt would clog the motor. I'd turn it in for repairs and the Eureka Co. always sent me a brand new one. Then one time they sent me the new model, that had a new filter-cup, which keeps the motor clear, & I was thrilled. I love the light weight quality and the smaller head, to vacuum tight spaces. I have a cat, and it picks up cat fur great! Just gets the job done (and I'm tough on vacuums). I don't have to fighting with it, or get ticked off, because it is hard to push or it won't get into the tight spaces. I've checked around, and this is the vacuum I want to always use. Even though I have one of the major brand names also, this is the one I use most of the time. It used to be at the stores, but I had to get it on-line this time. I hope they don't retire this model... I'd buy it a thousand times, because it is great! |

| I love this vacuum. I don't think its intended for use as a regular vacuum on plush carpets, but its great for quick cleanups. It's very handy for hardwood/tile floors (I never use a broom anymore)and for cleaning rugs without sucking them up into the vacuum. It's also great as a hand vacuum to get pet hair off of the furniture (I have a long haired cat). I recommend it as a handy tool to have around the house. |

If you want a small very light weight easy to use vacuum-broom this is it.
As a vacuum it has a powered brush, push a button and brush turns off and machine becomes a great broom for hard floors. Everyone should have one.
As a joke, I told wife it was a Valentine present. Turns out every time she uses it she reminds of the great gift I gave her!

| I originally had the Swivel Sweeper. Worked for 6 months and I cleaned the brushes regularly. It puttered out this week. I went to WalMart and purchased this for just over $25. WOW! I have 2 cats and a big littermaid litterbox. It not only got ALL the hair off my short piled wall to wall carpet but it rivals my other vaccum that I use for regular vaccuming. This is half the price of Swivel Sweeper and picked up 4 times as much stuff. The power this little, lightweight machine packs is unfreakin believable! Use it on vinyl flooring or your carpet. It didn't leave a thing on any of my carpets. I'm amazed! |
A powerful little cleaner, however so very light., It picks up!!

| I got this little cleaner for my step-dad who has heart problems and cannot lift over 15 pounds. This little sweeper he can handle with ease, and me being the caregiver to my mother and step-dad this little powerhouse helps me out as well. I looked at alot of sweepers before deciding on this great cleaning tool, and I know that you cannot go wrong with this winner!! It is easy on the hands too. |
this thing rocks!

| I wasn't sure about this vacuum being that I am a cleaning junkie. I have tried many vacuums and been dissapointed in the past. From swiffer vacuums to stick ones, to hand held... you name it, I have tried it. Being a mother of four with four pets, I am always looking for something to make my house work a little easier. Aren't we all??? This is it folks. This thing works like no other. It quickly picks up dirt and debris both off carpet and hardwood/tile floors. I was shocked how this thing performed on carpet. Don't get me wrong, by no means will this replace your vacuum. But durring the week when I need to quickly get the little pieces of lint and hair off the carpets before going to work, this thing delivers. Picks up kitty litter, cherios, cat/dog hair, dirt etc. Works great also on stairs with out lugging the big vac up and down. I love that it is cordless and you are not constantly plugging and unplugging to outlets. For cordless this thing has great suction. I was shocked and very happy to say the least. If anybody says this vac does not work, they must have a faulty one. I purchaed this at Target, it rang up for $7.84, again I was shocked. Must have been on clearence or misspriced. I am going back to Target today to see if I can scarf up on another one of these babies. I would buy another one though at regular price too, worth every penny. Another thing that is an added bonus, you can keep it on the charger constantly so it is always ready when you need it. I had a shark one that specifically specified not to keep it on the charger to only charged when the battery was just about dead. Well what good is that?? When you need it and you have to wait again for it to charge??? Stupid. Not this one, it clearly states to leave it on the charger so it is always ready. Sorry for the long review, I just can not say enough good things about this machine. Buy one today if you have pets and kids!! |
Great Vacuum for bare floors!

| I just purchased this vacuum--it works great! We have lots of tile and wood floors, and it picked up all the dust and crumbs very well. Much better than our 'big' vacuum, which just flings dirt around. It did a good job on the area rugs, too. It is very lightweight and easy to use--I think (hope!) my young kids will be able to use it to help out. A great product for a low price!
P.S. To the reviewer who asked where to get another dust cup filter, the owner's manual says to call 1-800-282-2886 and ask for part number 61544. |

I purchased this vac about 2 months ago. I absolutely love it! I had an older model,but it got lost when we moved. It also worked great which is why I purchased another.
I have vinyl flooring throughout my entire house and I have no problems sucking up dirt and pet hair and whatever else my 5 year old seems to drop.
The cord is very long and it is lightweight. Even my 5 year old likes to use it!
I would hightly recommend this product to anyone.
It is definitley a great vac at a great price! |
Best Light Vacuum Ever

| I purchased this vacuum from target and it works great. Thought the low price meant less power but it was a surprise to see it work much powerfully. Great value for money. Picks up hair and other dirt easily but blows off popcorn or other light items instead of picking up. But with a low price tag, it is unbeatable. |
