    Approximately three years ago, my $200 Eureka vac finally stopped working and I purchased the featherlite to replace it. At that time I lived in a 1,400 sf apartment. Now I live in a 2,500 sft home.

    For the past three years, this vacuum has served our family well. Pros:

    1. Inexpensive. $40 or less in most places.
    2. It picks up dirt, fuzz (and legos) as well or better than any other vacuum I’ve ever used. Really. Just change the bag when it gets full.
    3. Light weight. It’s very easy to manuver and my younger kids can use it.
    4. Simplicity. This is a basic vac. It’s easy to change the bag, wind the cord, and pull hair/crud out of the roller if necessary.
    5. It’s got a bag. This is a personal preference, but every bagless upright I’ve ever used creates a small dust storm when you empty it. The bag system on this one works well.

    Cons:
    1. I don’t expect it to go past 5 years. It’s clearly designed for low cost and light weight. However, so far so good.
    2. It’s pretty loud. Not the loudest I’ve used but it’s not quiet.
    3. The hose for attachments is cumbersome to use. My recommendation? Use a small canister vac and/or shop vac instead. Most uprights have on-board tools that don’t work well.
    4. I have several children, and one in particular that sheds a lot of long hair. All vac will get hair caught in the beater-bar underneath, but this one also seems to get hair caught in the bushings that support the bar. When this happens, the hair builds up in that area creating friction and eventually smelly hair smell. Not a huge problem but slightly annoying.

    I intend to buy another one of these when mine gives out. If I have to spend $40 every 4-6 years to own a lightweight, easy to use, vacuum that cleans extremely well then I’m quite ok with that! I see no reason to blow $200-$400 on a large heavy vacuum that MIGHT last a little longer.

    I was suprised to see that some of the other reviews portray this vacuum as useless. I bought mine from Target a year ago and it works wonderfully. Only complaints is that it’s still pretty ‘clunky’ to carry around and that when you want to use the attachments it’s hard to get the hose out. I’ve gone through a Shark brand vacuum that broke after 2 uses and an Orek XL that ate it’s own cord but couldn’t pick up Cheerios that my daughter spilled. I’ve had bad luck with vacuums but this one is doing just fine after 200+ uses.
