Dirt Devil 100 Classic 7 Amp Bagless Handheld Vacuum Cleaner Review

Dirt Devil 100 Classic 7 Amp Bagless Handheld Vacuum Cleaner

(More customer reviews)
I bought a Dirt Devil hand vac in the early 1980's because the carpet salesman where I bought my new carpet told me it would be far superior for use on stairs than the attachment that came with my upright (Rainbow) vacuum cleaner. He was right and I also loved that hand vac for cleaning my upholstered furniture. I bought a Dyson Animal vacuum cleaner last year and I wish I could say that the upholstery attachment sucks, but it doesn't, and it is hard to put on and take off of the hose. I like the Dyson for my carpets but am not at all impressed with their attachments. So, today I bought this Dirt Devil Classic and it is great! I read the reviews here and others were complaining about some of the other models. This hand vac has a belt and the belt can be replaced. The owner of the vac shop told me the difference between the models that are receiving the complaints here and the Classic 0100 that I bought today is that the others are air driven and mine is belt driven and that's why the other models' brushes stop moving when you touch the vac to either your upholstered furniture or your carpet. I paid $49.95 for mine, $10 more than listed on Amazon but I got it today instead of next week. I can't say enough good things about Amazon and their quick service, though, and I do buy a lot from Amazon. So, if anyone else, like me, is reading these reviews prior to purchasing a new Dirt Devil hand vac, please buy a belt driven model and not an air driven one. You won't be sorry. You may pay more but it will be worth it. I gave only 4 stars instead of 5 because it is really noisy!

Hoover WindTunnel Canister Vacuum, Anniversary Edition, Bagged, S3670 Review

Hoover WindTunnel Canister Vacuum, Anniversary Edition, Bagged, S3670
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It's been a long road to get to this particular vacuum. About a year ago, I bought a used Filter Queen that was touted as the best canister on market. I hated it from the start, would just push objects across the carpet instead of picking them up. DREADED using it, it was so cumbersome and didnt have any modern features, such as auto cord rewind. So finally was able to sell that, even lost a few bucks on deal but just wanted it out of the house.
Then I bought what I thought I wanted, a Sears model. Have had a Sears Progressive before but the quick release feature broke on it (a piece of plastic inside tube, could not be fixed) and now it was quick releasing too quickly.....
So I thought that would be a good choice but once I got it home, it just seemed flimsy and cheap. Didn't even work so well. So back to the store it went. Seems Sears products are getting flimsier and are not the same quality as of just a few years ago.
Did a bunch of internet research and came upon this Hoover model. Was not even aware that other vacuums,other than Sears, had the quick release feature. This is my major requirement, and was pleased to find another option than Sears. All reviews I found spoke highly of this vacuum, so I ordered it sight unseen and it arrived yesterday.
Well I am most pleased!!! Just taking it out of the box the quality seemed superior to the Sears model I had just returned. Also very sharp looking, and it works great!! Super long cord, telescopic wand, really generous sized hardwood floor attachment and it also has this odd shaped onboard brush attachment , that I am in love with. It is the perfect shape to clean your baseboards and with your adjustable wand, there is no need for alot of uncomforable bending. Great for a tall gal! So I am now a very happy neat freak, finally have a vacuum I am happy with and look forward to using!!!

The Hoover® WindTunnel® bagged canister vacuum is easy to use and flexible enough to clean any surface in your home! Powerful suction cleans carpeting, upholstery, hardwood, tile, and more. For a powerful, deep-down clean, this bagged canister vacuum features a 15-inch power nozzle with WindTunnel technology. Three distinct air channels lift and trap dirt, keeping it from scattering back into the carpet, so dirt ends up trapped in the bag and not on the floor. Fingertip controls turn the brushroll on and off for transitioning from carpets to bare floors, while variable speed control with illuminated LEDs makes it easy to control the suction power. The unit also traps 99.97-percent of dust and pollens down to 0.3 microns in size thanks to the HEPA media bag. On-board tools clean hard-to-reach nooks and crannies. The long cord and hose let you reach high corners and under furniture without having to re-plug, while the 360-degree swivel connection on the hose gives you the flexibility to move around corners and into all areas of your house with ease. An 18' cord rewind means no more winding—just gently tap the pedal with your foot to retract the cord neatly inside. With the 14" wide power nozzle brushroll you'll quickly and easily loosen and lift out deep down dirt1, dust, hair and allergens. Other thoughtful details include edge-cleaning bristles, a quick-release telescopic wand, and an ergonomic D-grip handle for comfort and control, as well as an electronic full-bag indicator, ultra-smooth rolling casters, a headlight, and a 25-foot cord with automatic rewind. The vacuum cleaner measures 6 by 20 by 45-1/2 inches with the wand and nozzle and carries a three-year limited warranty.

Haan Steam Cleaner Short Handle Attachment Review

Haan Steam Cleaner Short Handle Attachment
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
What a job this does cleaning my floors! I use it for ceramic tile, hardwood, and for vinyl. The white vinyl floor in my kitchen really allows this product to show what it can do.
I used to do this floor only by hand, because it didn't look really clean using a mop or any other manual appliance. I had better luck once I started using the Swifter, but I was concerned about the expensive, strong-smelling chemical I was using, and about the disposable pads. Then I tried my sister's new Shark steam floor cleaner. It was fine, but did not deep clean. As I recall, it had only one steam jet! I noticed a lot of pull (surface resistance) when using it, so the job took a long time. And then came the Haan. What a wonder! It produces a lot of steam and really gets that old, cheap vinyl floor clean. It came with two wonderful pads, and I ordered more just to be sure I could do the floors in my whole house in one day. (Fat chance of my ever doing that!) The pads are cleaned well in my washing machine. I am so pleased I bought this brand because it really does the job! No more stinky, expensive chemical needed. Very smart purchase!

BabyGanics Floors to Adore Floor Cleaner Concentrate, Fragrance Free 16 oz (473 ml) Review

I have an unfixed male English Mastiff that slobbers everywhere. Babyganics floor cleaner is probably the best floor cleaner that I have come across to help with the stubborn drool and paw prints that is environmentally friendly. Ammonia with mixed with water is just as good, but as an expectant mother, breathing in those fumes is not a good idea.

method Squirt+Mop, Hard Floor Cleaner, Lemon Ginger 25 fl oz (739 ml) Review

method Squirt+Mop, Hard Floor Cleaner, Lemon Ginger 25 fl oz (739 ml)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I use the Lemon Ginger floor cleaner on both our tile and wood floors. We love the scent and it isn't overwhelming like some of the commercial cleaning products like Mr. Clean. Best of all it doesn't leave our wooden floors "squeaky" or "sticky" like the rest of the floor cleaners.
Tip: A little goes a long way when you use the Method microfiber pads. No need to saturate every square inch of the floor before mopping so a bottle of Squirt+Mop will go a long long way! I clean our wood and tile floors at least twice a month and we can make 25 oz bottle last 6 months or more and it still does twice the job as a Swiffer wetjet or a bucket of ammonia.

Hoover WindTunnel Bagless Upright Vacuum, WindTunnel T-Series, UH70105 Review

Hoover WindTunnel Bagless Upright Vacuum, WindTunnel T-Series, UH70105
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Usually I won't buy a product on Amazon without seeing at least one customer review...but at $100 I thought I'd take a chance. I wanted a lightweight vacuum with good power, one that was bagless, able to pick up animal hair, and wouldn't cost me a fortune long-term with replacement filters. So far, this vacuum fits all those criteria.
PROS
- Easy to put together. It took me about 4 minutes once the pieces are out of the box. A Philips screwdriver is required to secure the handle. There's nothing complicated here.
- Long cord. Plus, there's a little cord clip up near the handle to secure the cord.
- Power. I was surprised to see how quickly this cleaned up and how much it got out of my carpet, even after my Roomba had taken a turn just before. Very good at getting fine cat hair out of a medium-pile carpet.
- Lightweight. You sacrifice a motor (i.e. it's not self-propelled), but the darn thing is so light it hardly matters. I had no trouble pushing this thing around; in fact, I found it easier to push without the motor than my bigger, heavier Bissell bagless vacuum (which weight about 10 pounds more but was self-propelled). It weighs about 15 pounds. Plus, the top of the canister serves as an additional handle for the entire vacuum, so you can pick it up in two different places.
- Easy to empty. The bottom of the canister is hinged. Push the button to unlock the canister from the vacuum, bring the canister to your garbage, and push the latch (easy to do) on the front of the canister. The darn thing just empties right out. (Just be sure you've got it over the garbage when you do!)
- Filters. The packaging says you never need to replace the HEPA filter (located at the top of the canister), and the canister's cone filter is apparently rinsable. I haven't had to deal with either yet.
CONS
One star off because of the little noises associated with operation. First, there was this weird chirping sound for about 5 minutes after using it the first time. It did, however, go away - looks like it was literally a squeaky wheel. And second, once you get something of weight in the canister, like a tiny piece of gravel, it whirls around and around and around...and you hear it whirl around and around...it's pretty loud. But overall, neither of these would keep me from purchasing again.

TUFF STUFF FOAM DEGREASER -- 22 OZ. AEROSOL (AS192) Review

Average Reviews:

I have tried many other rug cleaners and formulas for getting rid of all kinds of spots on the carpet and never found anything to really work. Then I found a can of Tuff Stuff Multi-Purpose Foam Cleaner that I had had in my laundry closet for some time and out of desperation decided to give it a try. I LOVE IT!!!!! I couldn't find a spot on the carpet that this product didn't get rid of. Maybe I have unusual spots, but I'm ordering 6 cans right now and hope and pray that the company never "improves" the product or replaces it. This one REALLY WORKS!
