As an all-purpose placeholder for vacuums I am considering. Shark Bagless. $160 Pros: Good reviews, don't have to clean filter often like with other bagless vacuums, small footprint Cons: This appears to be an As-Seen-On-TV brand, which could explain the plethora of reviews. People are stupid. http://www.amazon.com/Navigator-Upright ... 733&sr=1-3 Eureka Optima Lightweight Upright Bagless. $65 Pros: Good reviews, small, lightweight (11.4lbs), cheap Cons: Not super duper powerful, people complain about having to clean the filter often and what a pain it is. http://www.amazon.com/Eureka-437AZ-Opti ... pd_sbs_k_2 Bissell Cleanview Helix Bagless. $80-100 Pros: Good reviews on both models, featured reviews from other sites Cons: 20.4lbs, unclear on difference between models besides weight and warranty, reports that this loses some power and glamour over time, lower filter reportedly gross to clean http://www.amazon.com/Bissell-Cleanview ... 543&sr=1-3 http://www.amazon.com/Bissell-Cleanview ... 543&sr=1-2 Hoover Windtunnel. $100 Pros: Cheaper than retail thru Amazon, good reviews, etc. Cons: 24lbs http://www.amazon.com/Hoover-WindTunnel ... 543&sr=1-1 Bissell Healthy Home. $200 Pros: highest review rating I've seen thus far, reported to be much better than Bissel Clean View above by reviewer. Cons: 29lbs. Expensivest so far too. http://www.amazon.com/Bissell-Healthy-U ... 394&sr=1-2 |

Check out Orecks. I used to see them all the time on commercials . . . the vacuum that weighs less than five pounds but weighs less than a bowling ball. Thought it was all hype, then Grandpa bought us one for Christmas. That thing is PHENOMENAL! I LOVE it!!! |

I have a bagged hoover wind tunnel (about 10 years old). It is a solid vacuum. For a while I had a hoover bagless wind tunnel and it was crap. hte mesh (not even really a filter) between the dirt compartment and the filter compartment would get clogged in like 10 minutes. The suction would then disappear. It was more expensive than the bagged version (it was a gift), but we quickly opted for the hand me down bagged version. Orecks are way expensive. In that price range may want to consider a dyon dc-14 or something like that. http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Dy ... erralID=NA Check this one's "people who bought this also bought" section. a bunch of romance novels: http://www.amazon.com/Dyson-DC14-Cyclon ...

.....Or you could go super-badass like me, and have hardwood floors. Checkmate! |

Dude, so many frowning smileys lately....... You should come over next time we jam! The non-floor parts of the apartment are pretty cool, too. Side note: I've met a guitarist at school who I may be starting a band with. Any interest in jamming with the both of us sometime? |

Me either. It's been like a month now and still no vacuum. This sucks. Or doesn't. |

It appears I too am looking for a vacuum. Any epiphanies yet? I read some reviews indicating that dysons on berber carpet will tear up the fibers and track the carpet, since you cannot manually adjust the bruck height (it adjusts itself based on gravity). I hate these kinds of purchases (expensive and unexciting). |
