Eureka AirSpeed Gold Bagless Upright with AirSpeed Technology
This vacuum assembles easily without tools. Don’t be concerned when Step 1 states that the main handle snaps into place when pushed down and it doesn’t. The main handle actually becomes locked only when the “carry” handle is attached in a subsequent step.
I already own a Dyson and this vacuum compares favorably. Both have powerful suction. I actually prefer the Eureka’s utility tool hose operation to that of the Dyson. The stair/upholstery hose attachment works especially well.
The Eureka is bagless, but it does have two filters which require periodic replacement. The DCF 21 canister filter is $15.18 each on Amazon. The EF6 exhaust filter is $8.37 each. In total, filter replacements will probably amount to $50 plus per year based on Eureka’s 3 to 6 month replacement instructions, although one can extend the canister filter life somewhat by keeping it brushed out. By contrast, the Dyson’s filter is washable and lasts for years.
The ergonomic centrally located carrying/lifting handle on the Eureka is a strong plus for users like me with steps, stairs, and lots of immovable objects that require the vacuum be placed into small spaces. The Dyson’s thin handle is at the very top of the machine which makes it difficult to lift.
The power cord on the Eureka exits the machine at the bottom rear of the vacuum, directly in the footprint of the user. I’ve now become somewhat used to it but one must constantly avoid stepping or walking on the power cord.
Overall, I probably still prefer the Dyson but by only by a slight margin. The Eureka should be an excellent value if it turns out to be durable and dependable.

|Wow!,
I had to break down and buy a new vacuum. The one I had was literally falling to pieces. I wanted one that had similar features, upholstery vacuum, extendable wand, etc. I was also looking for one that had good cleaning abilities. I was a little hesitant at first, when I ordered this vacuum it had just become available on Amazon and had no reviews. I decided to go for it.
Had it for less than a week, but so far it is a cleaning beast. I have two children and really only three bedrooms that need cleaning, rest of the house is tiled. I just emptied the canister and wow is all I can say. It had stuff, more than likely was sitting deep down in the carpets for a long time. I commented to my wife the carpets actually looked clean after vacuuming them. Had the other vacuum for 4 years.
Pros: (so far)
Easy to manuever, does not seem unwiedly
On the lowest carpet setting will actually pull itself forward
Lots and lots of suction
Long reach with cord and hose
Not very loud, pretty typical noise output
Seems to be well put together
Cons: as I see it
Cannot turn off beater brush
Does not make coffee
Longevity remains to be seen, but for the money I would say give it a shot.
