Eureka 4700D Maxima Bagless Upright Vacuum

Eureka 4700D Maxima Bagless Upright Vacuum Review

I've had my Eureka Lightspeed 4700D for almost a month now, my friend Nick has had his Maxima 4700D for alot longer, about 8 - 9 months I believe. Both of us can attest, THIS is a quality vacuum. Save for one time where my timing belt snapped the day after I bought it, which was completely my fault, the suction was so powerful when I was vacuuming my grandma's room that it sucked up one of my grandma's heavy-duty blankets and caused the belt to snap, I've had zero problems with this thing. It has picked up so much dust, pet hair, and debris off the floors of my house that it's ridiculous. I'm so glad I bought one of these for the downstairs of my house, it actually makes me WANT to clean it at least every other day if I can. Never really had a vacuum do that to me before, that's for sure. **LOL**

Plus, the cord that is attached to the vacuum itself is ridiculously long. I kid you not when I say from the second outlet of my downstairs, the one nearest the entrance door, I was able to clean the staircase from bottom to top and still have a few inches to comfortably place the vacuum upstairs while I went downstairs to pull the plug out of it's socket and bring the cord itself upstairs without any problems. And when cleaning my grandma's bedroom and my bedroom, I was amazed at how might brighter the color got after a few sweeps with the thing, and of course, the blobs of dust and debris that formed in the canister could only be described as "alien-like" because they were so huge. The feather-light weight of the vacuum makes hauling it a crap ton easier too, so bear that in mind when you decide to buy this thing.

There are but a couple flaws, one of them being that the hose, which is multi-function and actually serves as the artery that dust and debris picked up from the brushroll section travels through to get to the canister. You see, this is a brilliant, but flawed design. Mainly due to the fact that the hose keeps falling out of it's respective place. However, just a couple seconds takes care of that. The other being the vents in the front sometimes blowing things around that you want to pick up off the floor. But these are small flaws in an otherwise awesome vacuum. I really have no complaints about it, it's a great machine for 60 bucks. And it's mad easy to replace any part from it. Plus I got a three year warranty on the thing so if anything goes wrong, I can return it and get a new one.

This really is a quality vacuum, and trust me, I have a Eureka Optima that I spent about the same amount to get some 6 years ago now and it's still as powerful as the day I brought it home. Eureka does make a quality product, and you can bet I will be buying another one of these badboys for my room and for the upstairs in general. I have no regrets of buying this thing, considering that it makes me feel good about cleaning my house? Totally I am a fan. Get one for yourself and you'll see the Eureka difference in no time flat.

Specifications

Lightweight and inexpensive yet solidly constructed, the Eureka 4700A Maxima offers an excellent value in a full-size upright vacuum. The cheerful yellow unit is easy to push and maneuver, offers powerful, 12-amp suction, and even uses micro-filtration to capture dust mites, pollen, and pet dander for cleaner, healthier indoor air, whether you have allergies or not. Like other bagless models, the Maxima eliminates the expense and hassle of disposable vacuum cleaner bags, using instead an easily accessible, easily-emptied dirt cup that's transparent so you can see when it's full. On the downside, the filter needs to be cleaned often, especially if you have pets, but this is also common with other bagless models. In the case of the Eureka Maxima, there's only one filter to clean and it's easily washable, simplifying the process considerably.

In keeping with its simple, versatile design, the Maxima comes with just the right amount of onboard tools: a crevice tool for corners and baseboards, dusting brush for upholstery and blinds, and extra-long, nested extension wand for added reach. All of these attach to an integrated large-diameter hose designed to resist clogging and help keep the unit from tipping when it's pulled. (The hose detaches rather easily, but this comes in handy in case it does need to be cleared.) A grip on top near the base aids in cleaning stairs or upholstery, while the handle lowers almost flat to vacuum under low furniture. Other features include a powerfully bright headlight and an automatic height adjuster, which accommodates surfaces ranging from linoleum to deep pile without ever touching a switch. Weighing in at just 14 pounds, the Eureka 4700A maxima measures 12-3/4 inches wide by 12 inches long by 42-1/2 inches tall; it is covered by a one-year limited warranty. --Mary Park

As expected from Amazon orders, the delivery was like lightening, the assembly a cinch, and my carpets look as if new. Bravo!!

This doesn't suck... But it does blow. - David K. Schlank -
This is the vacuum they use in "Bizzaro World". It doesn't suck up dirt and mess; it creates it. For use only on April Fool's Day and Opposite Day. I'm giving it a Viking funeral this weekend.
