Amazon.com: Let's face it. Most vacuums just don't cut it when it comes to really cleaning a home or office. Pesky pet hair embeds deeper in carpet than traditional vacuums go; bits and pieces of tracked-in dirt and debris hunker down under floor trim just out of reach of the latest brush innovations, rendering us to the silliness of handpicking behind that expensive vacuum, filling our pockets with lint, and wondering--who's really the boss? Troubles like these made the folks at Eureka get down and dirty and, ultimately, design the Boss Smart-Vac Upright Vacuum. Offering powerful performance for everyday household cleaning, the Eureka Boss is the solution for people who insist on having a truly clean home. The Boss's Direct Air Control System features an air selector switch that lets you direct all suction either deep into the carpet or to the hose for easy above-the-floor cleaning. The Power Paw brush makes it easy to clean stairs and upholstery, and even claws up embedded pet hair, so Fido can spend more time inside. The motorized brush lets you go from carpet to bare-floor cleaning with the flick of a switch. The Boss Smart-Vac is powered by a beefy, 12-amp motor that provides plenty of suction power for deep-cleaning carpets, and leaves nothing behind on hard floors.
Pretty smart, right? Well, here's the really smart part. The Boss Smart-Vac isn't just the best household carpet- and floor-cleaning vacuum on the market; it's also equipped with a unique, sealed, HEPA filtration system that captures 99.97 percent of dust, pollen, allergens, and bacteria. So, vacuuming the house doesn't mean you have to dust afterward, or sneeze while you're doing it. Cleaner carpets and cleaner indoor air at the same time!
Plus, the Boss comes loaded with user-friendly features to take the frustration out of vacuuming. A wide 15-inch cleaning path covers a lot of ground quickly before company comes. In addition, the exclusive dust trap system captures debris and dust in three stages. A handy stretch hose extends to five times its original length for reaching around furniture and sucking the cobwebs off the ceiling. And, a 30-foot cord won't leave you coming up short. The bare floor brush is designed to smoothly glide across wood and tile floors while picking up more dust and debris in corners and along baseboards than any other model. One extra Type-R belt and one bonus bag come included. The vacuum cleaner measures 12 by 15 by 44 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty. --Brian Olson
Great vacuum, but it is very heavy. I am very happy with this vacuum. It cleans very well and I like having most of the attachments right there on the body of the vacuum. It is quite heavy, though. While not a problem for me (6', 200lb. male), it may be worth considering if you are smaller or less strong.
It does have a control that you have to turn depending on whether you are vacuuming or using the hose and attachments (the yellow disc in the picture, near the top), and I have forgotten to switch it a couple of times, but that is my own learning curve and no fault of the vacuum.
Overall, a great value for the price. Highly recommended!
plastic breaks easily I bought this vacuum a year ago and within a few months the foot pedal release popped off of the machine completely. I had it replaced and it quickly popped off again. This time the clear plastic housing broke and would cost $29 to replace the part and $29 in labor. It can only be replaced with the same cheap clear plastic housing. It still works, and though heavy, i have been ok with it's performance. However, without the foot pedal, it will not stay locked in the upright position and falls when nudged or tugged slightly. This makes some operations difficult, especially when using the hose attachement.
Everything I hoped for This Vacuum is all that I'd hoped for; plenty of power, nice varity with the attachments and the Power Paw attachment was a great idea. I use the Power Paw attachment for under furniture where that dust tends to build up on the carpet and the attachment cleans the carpet great. Pet hair comes off furiture, rugs and clothing easily with this tool. The reviews I read before buying were all positive. The Only thing I can say which some reviews had mentioned is the weight. It is a little heavy to lift, but not bad.
Super Suction!! This is the second Eureka Boss Smart-Vac I have purchased. The first one had many broken parts because of a lot of use. We had been so impressed with this vaccume that we bought another one. This newer one seems to be even better. It is incredible the amount of dirt it picks up. For the price, you can not go wrong. The attachments are also easy to use and very convenient. As a Mom with two kids, two dogs and a husband who won't wipe his feet, I highly recommend
This vacuum sucks (literally) You can feel the scrubby things working, they even pull the vacuum forward, so cleaning is a piece of cake. My place feel so much cleaner and dust is minimized so there's less dusting to do. I picked up the Arm & Hammer filter too which freshens up the air in my place as well.
