Comment:
the carpet brush seems to be too agressive! I was vacuuming on a low carpet setting and turned to use the tool setting on something not realizing the electrical cord was under the bottom of the machine until I could smell the burning rubber. It practically rubbed through to the copper. The brush also melted an area rug in a grooved pattern at the edges of the carpet.
How long have you owned it:

Comment:
This vacuum has been horrible! Within two weeks of buying the belt broke. Then, after 6 months, the entire engine blew for no reason. It was still under warranty, so I was able to take it to a service place for free. However, it took over a month for Eureka to replace the motor! Then, the first time I tried using it, the engine blew again. I'm never buying a Eureka product ever again.
How long have you owned it:
Three-to-six months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Comment:
Great vacuum! Cleans like crazy! Come on, CR - emptying a bagless is a dirty dusty job????? Are you the folks who have trouble opening orange juice cans in the infomercials? How hard is it to put the canister over the garbage can, pop the button, and give it a quick shake? I am losing faith in your reviews, CR.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
