eureka the boss 4870 the yin & the yang. overall good vac

byedbartmin Jan 1, 2010
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros strong motor. good suction.  no dust blowing around room.
Cons hose stretched out so as to not stay secure
Recommended it? Yes

I use the eureka "the boss" 4870 for cleaning a 2 story house. What I love most is the strong suction that does a great job on the rugs.  The very long power cord is handy as well.  It all doesn't kick out the dust that my old upright bag did thanks to the HEPA filter.  The vac does...

Great Value and Suction but scares the baby

bytmuffin Dec 23, 2009
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Easy to Use, Effective
Cons Heavy, Noisy
Recommended it? Yes

This vacuum is a great value. It is large and somewhat heavy, but self-propels pretty well. It has a knob that you turn when using the hose so the brush stops rolling and doesn't wear out your carpet. What a great feature! It had the best reviews out of perhaps 5 vacuums I looked at for this price,... Read full review »

Bye-bye yellow lab fur

4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Great suction, floor/hose switch, bare floor option
Cons Non-retractable cord, unlock pedal hard to push
Recommended it? Yes

I recieved this vacuum as a gift and couldn't be more pleased. It has a very powerful suction which has been able to suck up dog fur that my old upright had been unable to get and has been on my area rugs for months. Any vacuum that can battle and WIN against my shedding dog is a winner in my book... Read full review »

Boss Vacuum

byskmccall6 May 24, 2008
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Affordable
Cons Doesn't fit the bill for homes with pets or carpet.
Recommended it? No

This vacuum has been a disappointment. After about one month, we noticed a significant loss in hand tool performance/suction. Now, even the floor suction is not as strong as the first month. We routinely have to remove debris captured in the tubing because the suction does not carry it through to... Read full review »

Eureka Boss Smart Vac

Pros Powerful, quiet, lots of suction, low cost, self-propelled in forward motion, great on...
Cons Too heavy for stair use, cleaning curtains.
Recommended it? Yes

Bought on sale at Kohl's. Overall, an excellent vacuum. Easy to assemble, cuts a wide swath, lots of suction, very quiet, on-board storage for all parts, picks up pet hair easily, basically self-propelled in forward mode, a bit heavy in backwards mode, not really suited for stair use. Can see why... Read full review »

Sweet Piece of Machinery

Pros Great Price! Awesome Sucking Power!
Cons Bag could be a bit bigger. Hose could be a little longer.
Recommended it? Yes

We had to break down and get a new vacuum. Our old Hoover wasn't picking up the dog hair and it was getting a bit too hairy for our taste. I did a bit of research and found that Consumer Reports put together a list of the best vacuums in 2007 for pet owners. There were a number of expensive ones... Read full review »

worst vacuum ever

4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros None
Cons Didn't work!
Recommended it? No

I bought this and had to return it. If the suction was high enough to work, the bristles wouldn't turn. Now I don't know what to buy because this model keeps coming up as the best. No Way! Read full review »

Problems

byfriendlywoman Apr 28, 2007
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Cost Initial performance
Cons Not enough power
Recommended it? No

I liked this vacuum for the first few months I had it but after that time it developed one big problem: it no longer had the strength to pull the vacuumed material out of the carpet and send it all the way to the vacuum bag. A lot of what I pick up is dog hair but I would think that it could handle... Read full review »

Worst Vacuum EVER!!

byreviewer514 Feb 28, 2007
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros good suction
Cons everything else--cheaply made, difficult to use
Recommended it? No

I, too, bought this because of its review in Consumer Reports. They got this one WRONG!

The vacuum is heavy and cheaply made. The hose falls off the hook constantly. The HEPA filter cover falls off while you are vacuuming. The belts get stuck regularly. Sometimes it just stops working... Read full review »

bosses me around

Pros Good suction
Cons too heavy, too big, awkward ...
Recommended it? No

It's very heavy and awkward; it sucks up my area rugs; it does a lousy job on my hardwood, it's too big to get in corners and around furniture; the cord keeps getting caught in the wheels, around my legs, etc. Vacuuming is a constant struggle between me and "the boss." In short, I hate it!!! Read full review »
