Great for hard floors

This little vacuum has super powerful suction and is really lightweight. I would only recommend it for hard floors though. I also replaced the floor brush with one that doesn't have wheels (picture included). I hate the ones with wheels because it prevents you from putting any pressure on the brush. What good is a brush if you can't scrub with it? I clean houses for a living and I use this at a home with 4 dogs and 2 cats. It has all hard floors so this vacuum is perfect. I really don't have to replace the bag very often either, which is surprising since it seems small. The hose is super long which is a plus, however it does kink easily. Still, it is worth the money, I've used Dyson, Meile, Rainbow, Hyla, Hoover etc, this vacuum has as good of suction as the best of them.

Powerful for its size

This is definitely a budget vacuum and the attachments that come with it barely adequate. You also have to take care that the model has a blower or a hepa filter. I don't believe it can have both as the hepa filter will go in the same place as the blower port (from my extrapolations). In other words, you'll have to do more research than reading amazon reviews to know for sure. Again, from my extrapolations, I believe the violet pet version is the only one with a hepa filter. Otherwise, the vacuum is surprisingly powerful for it's size. I also haven't filled the bag despite vacuuming a large, dirty house. Now the Mighty Mite can do carpet well on a small scale but is more for hard surfaces. It's very portable and the extension wands provide impressive reach. I've read that the hose is easily bent though mine is fine. I would suggest purchasing other attachments along with ascertaining exactly what features go with the specific model you intend to purchase. The amazon reviews are muddled in this regard though it seems color and model number are linked. The model only comes in one color; change the color and change the model number as well as the features.

I absolutely love this vacuum!

I have two German Shepherd dogs and three cats. I have a lot of pet hair. Sometimes I vacuum daily, sometimes I ignore the hair for a day or two. I had two upright vacuums - you know - the kind with two or three filters, and a little tiny canister. I would need to empty that canister at least 3 times while vacuuming. The filters would get nasty. They're never the same after you clean them and trying to replace them is expensive IF you can even find the correct filter. THAT'S why I purchased this vacuum. So glad I did too! It has a bag that holds lots and lots of dog hair (German Shepherd dogs shed approximately two entire dogs every other day) and there are no filters... well, I guess there is a filter at the exhaust end and honestly, I have never changed it. I have laminate flooring with area rugs. This particular model does not have the best rug attachment but a friend had a nice rug attachment (she has no rugs/carpeting) that has the rotating brush bar and gave me hers and it works great (you could probably find that here on Amazon). This vacuum has a nice long cord so I don't need to keep unplugging and replugging as I clean house. Love it! Will never use another vacuum. Highly recommend!

Makes Non Floor Vacumming a Breeze!

I've had a Eureka Mighty Mite for years big the power button broke. I did have it repaired and the vac repair man said "This is a good vacuum". I used it for years afterwards until the heavy handed boyfriend broke the button again. I purchased this one an was glad to see that the button was redesigned. It has great suction and is very reliable. I wanted this to vacuum furniture, walls, pillows ect as it is easier and lighter to handle tan the shark vacuum. With the shark I have to wield around the motor section which gets quite heavy after a while and I have found that a lot of vacuums are like this. Ones that do have a hose has quite a short hose. The Eureka has quite a long which I need for my applications. This has the attachments at the end of a light hose and does the job easily. I did purchase the pet hair attachment though that should only be used when needed as it is more taxing on the material than just suction. Love this!

Works Great - Sturdy Parts

I have had the Bissell zing bagless for 3 months and, while it works, it is cheaply made with all plastic components. I don't see it lasting long. I purchased this Eureka vacuum for my home cleaning businesses specifically because it has the metal parts. It is phenomenal! I love the way this thing works - suction is excellent. It is sturdy, even the plastic components are good, heavy duty plastic and not that thin flimsy stuff. I love that it is super light (I have to carry it in and out, up and down). I also really like how the arm is collapsible so that it fits in my cargo area better. OH and the best feature - the little brush attached to the arm - you just quickly separate the two metal parts, push down the brush and quickly vacuum / dust baseboards!!!! OMG that is a game changer!! (No more crawling on my hands and knees to wipe the baseboards unless I'm being paid to wet wipe them!)

The best vacuum if you have long hair

4 years ago I scoured reviews on Amazon, searching for the champion of vacuums. All others I tried failed, dying by strangulation. You see, I have long hair, anywhere from past my shoulders to past my waist. My daughter also has long hair. Not to mention that I have a dog. There is a lot of hair going on! And this is apparently a treacherous terrain for the suckers that came into my home one by one. Upright strong contenders with rolling brushes would be wrapped up, unable to move, with one trip through my house. I was spending more time with a pair of scissors attempting to free the brushes from the snares of tresses for more time than it took me to clean. And it would only delay the inevitable day when it would no longer engage in battle. Dare Devils came and went within 1-6 months. But then, this vacuum arrived and Eureka! It lasted 4 years. With no spinning brushes, and perfectly clean floors, I was very happy. But alas, this fine warrior finally lost its strength. It still runs and maybe I'm just not knowledgeable enough to fix it. He is the tired champion. I've come back to buy another one.

Works like a charm

Purchased this vacuum to clean out pews in our sanctuary. Works like a charm! The custodian is thrilled that her life is made easier, which is a good thing. Thank you!

I fell in love all over again

I've had this vacuum for over 5 years now, and as I was hosing it out again to clean off/out drywall dust, I fell in love all over again. I have abused this little machine, even dropping it off a ladder recently. I wiggled the innards back together again, and it works like a charm. But where it really shines is in cleaning up drywall dust! I brought this into the remodel job (a bathroom) and used it to clean up the horrible aftermath of an evening of sanding new drywall mud--there is fine dust everywhere. My Mighty Mite stood up to any Shop Vac, but took up a lot less room. The HEPA filters are MONEY! The bags themselves are a dream and catch most of the dust, but the HEPA filter on the back of the vacuum really kept the job fully contained--no blowing dust out the back into my relatively clean bedroom. When the vacuum stopped sucking, I changed disposable bags--which are affordable--and was back in business. I'm buying a couple more filters--also affordable--just to have on hand. A good vacuum is priceless, and this one is excellent.

Highly Recommended after Five Years of Use!!

I've had this vacuum for over 5 years now and have never had one spot of trouble with it. I've read some of the negative things other reviewers have posted and I honestly do not understand their complaints. This is a canister vacuum cleaner, not a jet airplane. PROS: 1. It's hard plastic, as most canister vacuums are. The body of the unit is made of very sturdy, thick plastic and the wheels are solid and work well. 2. It has a long cord length. If it were any longer, it would be unwieldy. I don't think there is any vacuum that has a cord that is long enough to just plug in once and vacuum an entire house. The cord is long enough to vacuum two large rooms. 3. The hose is also thick plastic and does not kink. 4. Not all the attachments fit onto the body of the vacuum but I couldn't care less about that. I bought some extra attachment tools and I keep all the attachments in a small trash can that I carry with me as I go from room to room. 5. There is more or less static depending on where you live. I live in Tucson where it's dry and there's usually a lot of static in the air. It's not a dysfunction of the hose that it has static and that hair clings to it as you vacuum. I just wet a cleaning cloth, swipe it down the hose and all the hair and other little bits come off easily. Then I swipe the hose with an anti-static dryer sheet. 6. This vacuum has a lot of sucking power and has a sliding piece that can be opened or closed depending on how much power you need. I use it for everything - dusting, floors and carpeting. For carpeting, I use it to suck up all the surface hairs then I use my Oreck upright for deeper carpet cleaning. If I don't do this, hair gets wrapped around the wheels of the Oreck and it's a pain to pick them out. 7. The piece that the hose connects to is metal, not plastic, and it can be extended to full length for floors or shortened for dusting. 8. The HEPA filter works great. No more dirt escaping out the back of the vacuum. 9. How the "pet" attachment works is self-evident and no instructions are needed to understand how it works. 10. The bags that this vacuum uses have a flap that covers the hole, so when the bag is full and is taken out to put in the trash, nothing falls out of the bag. CONS: None! I'm very happy with this vacuum, which I've used almost every day for over five years, and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a good canister vacuum.

BUY THIS!!!!!!!

Wow! Just got it, used it, and it's fantastic! I also bought the "frequently bought together" items (specifically the Eureka Generic Fits: All Floor Brush, Metal Curved Swivel Elbow, horsehair bristles, 1 1/4" fitting, 10" wide, color white) which I feel is a MUST. The brush has shorter bristles in the front so the floor stuff has room to be sucked up, not pushing the stuff around or trying to tilt the brush up. Small, light weight, powerful. I have laminate and linoleum floors. There is not beater, this is not for wall to wall carpeting. Appreciated the snap together assembly, no tools required. Also, it came with a bag already in it!!
