Great little canister vacuum

 

I went looking for a lightweight canister vacuum with HEPA filtration after a severe bout with allergies four years ago and my disappointment with two separate upright vacuums which were heavy, clumsy and raised nearly as much fine dust as they...

Good suction for a relatively small, light cleaner. Sturdy electric hose & power head

Small dust bag, but so what

I think this little vacuum provides an excellent balance between light weight and power and I couldn't be happier with it.

Great Vacuum

 

Great Vacuum

After owning a "tank" Electrolux for almost 20 years, I chose this vacuum to replace it, after reading reviews. I have a yellow lab who sheds awful and this will do the job. My only complaint is that a couple of weeks ago the piece that "hooks" into...

Dangerous machine, Electrolux doesn't care.

 

My girl friend bought this and was quite happy with it for about four months. While using it, all of a sudden she was flat on the floor with burns on her hand. She had been shocked after a short in the connection with between the handle and the wand ...

I always thought Electrolux prided themselves on quality engineering.

Apparently, they had a paradigm shift in policy about the quality/safety of their products.

Works for me

My vacuum arrived just a few days after I placed my order; it was well packed and everything in the box looked brand new. A bag and both filters were included. I knew that my antiquated Hoover was doing a lousy job, but I certainly didn't expect to...

Reconditioned HA-HA

Ordered this vacuum and knew it was supposed to be reconditioned - it hadn't even been repacked from the original purchaser! The original note from the previous customer stating her reasons for return were still in the box AND the mostly full dust bag...

Five Stars for CPO / NO STARS for Electrolux Refurb Factory

I purchased the Factory Reconditioned EL6989a from CPO through Amazon.com on April 21, 2008 for $[...]. It seemed like an excellent price for something reconditioned by the manufacturer with a 2-year manufacturer warranty. Overall I thought the vacuum...

no suction - very dissappointing

 

no suction - very dissappointing

My parents bought me this vacuum for my new home, which is full of hardwood floors, some area rugs and a dog. The vacuum looks great, is very easy to handle, but has zero suction - the suction "sucks" if I may say so. The bare floor attachment is...

Wonderful in every way!!

 

Wonderful in every way!!

I absolutely love my reconditioned Electrolux EL 6989!! I was a little hesitant about getting a factory-reconditioned product but I'm glad I did. Other than a couple of minor cosmetic scratches, it looks brand-new. I have a three-story house with...

Limited choices

We are pleased with this purchase. I actually prefer to buy some power equipment that has been "reconditioned" because I feel it has undergone a more precise quality evaluation. Canisters are becoming an extinct species and I don't know why. Must be...
