The Riccar R500 - Good Product

Solid, strong, with onboard tools and an extendable wand.

A bit heavy. Attachment hose too short, need to buy the optional 15' hose.

I can't believe how awesome this is

I am 25 years old and recently bought a new house. My wife and I own 2 cats. For years (in our past apartments) we had been getting by on a Eureka whirlwind bagless vacuum. My wife and I would go to work covered in cat hair. It was embarrassing to ...

Suction, attachments, low profile, and service.

Not sure on the longevity yet. Be careful not to suck up its own powercord!

Not that impressive

solid feel, probably, it is built well

cost, average performance

Consumer review (epinions.com)

I will never buy another brand!

I must begin by pointing out that I'm writing this review after two years of owning this vacuum. So we've certainly been able to put it through its paces and learn of all its quirks. Prior to buying this machine we've gone through a string of vacuums ...

Industrial quality, powerful suction. Unbelievable 5-year warranty and free annual service

Hose on the short side. External hose attachment mechanism is not good.
