 Price does not equal value - many problems... July 29, 2006

I bought this on a popular online auction for $25, but I didn't know what I was getting into. Buy this only if you accept the following:
The good:
As the other writer reported, the suction on the unit is superior, esp compared to uprights with hose attachments.
The cord pullout and retract is again, superior. Better than my Electrolux...
The bad:
The hose and extension wands are proprietory, that is, don't expect to use your old crevise and brush attachments with all of that superior suction. You can't attach the crevice tool at the end of one of the wands. You need to attach the crevice tool to order to put on the brush. Gimicky.
Furthermore, the wands FLY apart unless you JAM them in HARD.
The unit lacks a beater-bar. DON'T expect this to be of ANY value on carpeting.
The on/off switch is small and could be positioned better. No turning this guy on/off with your foot.
The bagless design is old-school. It uses the same permanent coffee filter design that's been around for years and years, and you can see it clog up in no time. The superior suction does compensate for that, but you'd think that after Dyson had solved the problem one way, others would be soon to follow. Not the case here.
But the real bug is that the RELEASE of the dirt compartment is part of THE HANDLE. Be REAL careful picking this guy up or the dirt will go flying all over (and down the stairs!). Who would think someone would pick the thing up by the handle?
HOWEVER, I should say that the suction IS very good and if you don't need carpet cleaning, will never want to use your own cleaning attachments and use it under limited circumstances, it's not a bad deal for the price. I use it for cleaning out computers.
All in all, however, except for those limited circumstances, very soon after buying this you'd realize that you should have paid a little more and gotten something you can use for the long term.
Great Suction, Not so great attachements January 28, 2005

The vac is great for wood floors. I cleaned over a thousand square feet of dusty wood floor and suction was great beginning to end.
The attachments however are nothing to brag about. Two cheap looking things I don't think I'll ever use. Attachments from older machines did not fit on this unit. The main attachment does not click into the tube that connects to the hose (The hose does click into the machine). This tube is actually two tubes that don't click together either. They seem tight when the machine is running but after some time do loosen. Luckily they are very light weight so when they did come apart and fall onto my foot it didn't hurt much.
The filter is easy to clean.
For the price this machine does a very good job. Better attachments would drive up the price so it's a fair compromise.

First the sad news...after purchasing at least 8 different vacuum cleaners in recent months, I've determined THERE IS NO PERFECT VACUUM CLEANER. I've tried them all, upright, canister, cordless, corded. In the low/med. budget cleaner market, you name it, I've tried it. Having said that, I really like the Panasonic MC4620. It's great for hardwood floors/tile and floor rugs (I don't have carpet). I can use it under most of the furniture in my house where all the pet hair and dust loves to collect. It is lightweight and has great suction. I LOVE that's the no beater bar for hair and debris to wrap around. The attachments do tend to come apart if you snag the end on furniture legs. That is my only complaint.
I am very happy with it September 13, 2006

I had a very powerful upright vacuum who did an excellent job for many years but was just a real pain for my back (too heavy and too big). I realized I needed a vacuum as efficient as that one but quieter and lighter, easy to move around. 11 amp provides a very good succion, the 17 foot attachment reach is very convenient, and automatically wraps up.
I do not know how it works on carpet because I have hardwood floor. It does the same good cleaning job as my upright vacuum, at half the cost and weight. I have to say though that the attachment do loosen during the job and more than once. But I can live with that (not with backaches).
powerful vaccum with one touch rewind the wire, Wow! December 6, 2006

My wife was very impressed with that one touch rewinding the wire feature. She also likes the powerful vacuum that can be used for our wood floor, and wood shutters.
I know my nose feel much better after using this vacuum in our house.
