Eureka Reviews

I ordered one of these for my mother and one for myself on the recommendation of the other reviewers. We both love it, and now I'm ordering another to send to my daughter for Christmas! It works wonderfully on our ceramic tile floors, and the suction is strong enough to pick up lint and threads from my bathroom area rugs (but it doesn't "eat" the rug like my regular vacuum).
You can either hang the entire unit on the bracket provided or easily remove the battery pack and recharge it on a counter or table top. It's easy to switch from hard floor to carpet setting, and the handle can be easily removed for hand vacuuming.
This vacuum is not intended to replace a full-size vacuum, but it's perfect for what is is meant to do.
In a way, I would have liked to be able to remove the head for attachments to get into small areas, but then it would be more complicated and not as sturdy and easy to use.
I highly recommend this product!

My niece kept telling me about this vacuum. She said it was the greatest, most useful purchase she has made. I thought she was overcome with taking care of her toddler and baby and did not pay much attention. I was visiting her one day and she started telling me about this Eureka Boss cordless vacuum again and gave me a demo. She likes it so much she has one for each floor of her house! I was amazed, and went home and ordered one online from Target. It is fantastic! I can clean a whole floor in minutes, including cat hair and kitty litter! I needed a little practice emptying the dust cup, but have developed a good techique so I don't get it all over. I usually put off cleaning because I have to drag out the heavy cumbersome vacuum. Now I actually enjoy cleaning with this light and adaptable machine. Life is so much easier and cleaner. Thanks!

This is a great vacuum for hardwood, linoleum, and tile. I don't recommend it for carpet. This isn't what we bought it for, though. Great buy, don't know how you couldn't like it, unless you use it for carpet.

We call my wife the Vacuum Lady.All she does is Vacuum .When she gets home from work the first thing she does is grab the vacuum. We've had our 5 amp professional Eureka Vacuum since 1977. Although it's pretty beaten up it is still running fine.I wanted to buy her a new one. We bought a new Eureka lightweight and brought it back the next day. The sound was too high pitched and it felt like a toy vacuum.The brush is made out of plastic. In fact with all my research I found out that most are plastic not metal like the Eureka C2094G .The metal ones last forever. Now we finally found the exact replacement the Eureka Heavy Duty Commercial Series . It has a 50 foot cord and that's the longest you will find.Instead of putting all extras and accessories into the vacuum it is just pure raw power .If you want a vacuum that lasts 25 years this is it.

...DON'T!

I have been very patient with this product. I have had it for weeks, but waited to use it in different environments before 'judging' it. It makes a lot of noise like it's doing work, but when you look (even in direct contact with the rug) the dirt doesn't move. Air just blows out the sides. I feel like I really wasted my money. I'm told it can't be returned, and that just upsets me.

I bought it primarily for use in my car. Before I got around to my car, I tried it on my rug/carpet - even hard surfaces. I still have to go over with my upright vacuum, hence, it's of no use to me. I have it permanently plugged into the wall behind a chair in my dining area. I'm going to have to move it, because when I see it I get upset.

I finally tried it in my car last weekend, I ended up literally picking up after it. Yes, I cleaned my car by hand. Picked up all the little pieces by hand, which was about 90% of the dirt that was there before I vacuumed. A brush and dust pan will do MUCH MUCH more than this product does. Anybody want to guess how much a brush and dust pan will cost them as opposed to this?

At that price, I wasn't expecting a powerhouse. I just needed something decent to keep my car looking alright, and get into little corners my upright can't. But to have virtually no sucking power, be it $5 or $25 - it's a waste. I'm really, really disappointed. I'll give it one star - for turning on and coming with its own charger.

I BOUGHT THIS VACUUM BECAUSE IT HAD GOOD REVIEWS, WELL MAYBE I JUST GOT A DUD, BUT MINE DOESN'T WORK VERY WELL. IT'S BRAND NEW AND THE BATTERY DIES DURING THE SMALLEST JOBS. IT STARTS PULSATING AND THEN DIES. I FOLLOWED ALL DIRECTIONS IN CHARGING THE VACUUM, SO IT SHOULDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS, BUT UNFORTUNATLY IT DOESN'T WORK. I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE.

I went through 3 Dustbusters before getting this one, and it has lasted way longer than any other hand vac I've ever owned. The long nozzle is a nice touch for under the kitchen cabinets, sand in the corners of the stroller seat, and for vaccuuming my kids' belly buttons, which they clamor for every time I turn the thing on. Easy to clean, and a good price-- you need one!

The suction on this vacuum is terrible! If you only need it for
very light cleaning its usable but thats about it.

This is just an awesome little vacuum. It's small, the bags are hard to find and the hose sometimes is extremely uncooperative but overall it's a great little vacuum. I live in an apartment with hardwood floors and it works great. If you are looking for just a low cost little vacuum this is the one. I can put up with only being able to get the bags on the Eureka website (they are really inexpensive) just so I don't have to try and empty out a container with cat fur and other funk into the garbage can.

This is probably the best general-purpose vacuum cleaner I've owned. I live in a large two-story house in the woods with several carpeted rooms and a lot of bare hardwood floor. The carpet needs occasional vacuuming with a heavy-duty upright, but the Mini-Mite takes care of everything else as well as quick once-over cleaning of the carpeted area; its floor tool is well designed to work on both types of surface. Previously I had a bagless Dirt Devil lightweight to use for quick cleaning, sucking up spiders and ladybugs, etc., but when you have pet hair to deal with you discover that the "labor-saving" bagless design is anything but--cleaning hair off the filter is a real chore. The Mini-Mite handles the pet hair fine, and is light enough so that the overhead jobs are easy. For large-area use you'll need an extension cord (yes, the manual says not to; use common sense and a good cord) or the optional extra hose. If you have high ceilings, invest in an extra plastic wand or two. This model doesn't come with a dusting tool or bare floor brush, but ones for larger Eurekas will fit, or you can order them from Eureka.

I got it at $40 in a FRiday sale .Broke immediatly after 2nd use .

Good value cleaner if you need a carpet vacuum.
Plusses: PRICE, Good suction and cleaning on mid length and short carpeting. Accessories store on board cleaner very nicely. Bags are very clean as opposed to the bagless models.
Minuses: A little cumbersome. If you have a LOT of carpet to clean this may tire you out a bit. Cord not self storing, and seems a little short.

The bonus cleaner is OK and real good for stairs and around the litterbox when you don't want to drag out the big cleaner. Also good for Automobile floors.

I got this vacuum a few weeks ago of $40. I love it thus far. It has an adjustable carpet-level setting, which comes in handy when cleaning floors, rugs, as different types of carpets. It's very powerful. The only negative thing is that it is a bit noisy.

I bought this vacuum because I needed a vacuum that would
work on wood floors and carpet. I had a cheap little dirt
devil for 10 years that was still working before I bought
the twin light. I found many things wrong. First of all, you
need bags which I could not find in the stores so I had to order
it from the manufacturer. After using it a couple of times you
have to clean out a screen that builds up with dust. you can only
do this with your hands or a fork or knife. Very dirty. If you don't clean this out it will not have any suction. Within 3 months one of the wheels broke off. When you pull on the hose to
get the vacuum to move with you, sometimes the hose will come off
from the canister. Any I don't like that the attachment of the
floor doesn't have a brush on it to keep from scratching the floor and that the suction hole is very small compared to the size of the floor attachment. Needless to say, I would highly
recommend against the purchase of this vacuum.

Where did they get the idea this vacuum was bagless?! It's NOT.

Other than that tho, it seems OK.

I was looking for a small, easily manueverable canister vac with a replaceable bag and retractable cord. This is it -- a great little vac! The extra length of hose was a super bonus, making it easy to clean a whole flight of stairs without moving the vac itself. The unit is lightweight and zips along behind you with little effort on your part. I was surprised by the power -- excellent suction. Two negatives, from my perspective: no onboard attachment storage (though the attachments themselves are better than average), and the floor brush (not being a beater-bar type) doesn't pull dirt from deep within pile carpeting, but it still does a very satisfactory job of getting surface dirt. Overall, I was extremely pleased with the quality of this vac for the price, and am ordering another as a gift.

I just got this today (not to mention, it took over 5 days to receive this with the Free Shipping). I was so excited cause it just looked really good. I tested it out in my little room on carpet, and I was so sad after only 2 minutes of testing it out. This thing doesn't have any suction at all for carpet. I'm not sure about other surfaces, but carpet is definitely not its forte. I just finished packing it up, and getting my refund back. I am sad to say that I've judged a book by it's cover, and I have made a bad purchase. I am also very upset that Amazon is not refunding me for the SHIPPING costs that I will incur after returning this. My reason for returning is obviously product dissatisfaction, but Amazon considers this to be the customer's fault, so we must pay for the Return shipping costs. Remember, this thing altogether with packaging weighs 18 lbs. I am super upset right now just writing this review. Just know that this is NOT good. Please don't get fooled like me.
