Hand-held but very powerful, this Eureka model eliminates the hassle of lugging around a full-size vacuum for cleaning car upholstery, sofas, and carpeted stairs.

And, with two motors, one to power the revolving brush and one for suction, the 5.5 amp vacuum cleans deeply.

One of Eureka's innovations is the Riser Visor, a clear plastic cover that stays down for cleaning horizontal surfaces and flips up so the revolving brush can reach the vertical carpet on stair risers. There's no bag to change, just a filter and clear plastic dust cup to shake out when necessary. --Ann Bieri

Sucks it head off! July 20, 2008
This Eureka 71B Hand-Held Vacuum sucks its head off! In fact, it sucks so hard that it can be a tad hard to maneuver. I find the on\off switch on the top very, very tight, but I think the machine is just put together well! Eureka 71B Hand-Held Vacuum

I wonder if the reviewer whose machine stopped right away just received an anomaly - a bad machine that should have been returned. I don't know if Eureka is a problematic warranty guarantor and I hope I never have to find out. I have had mine for a while and it is STILL going strong.

Overall, if you want outstanding hand-held suction, this Eureka 71B hand-held (or the Black & Decker CycloPro) will do the deed! Black & Decker CCV900 CycloPro Corded Hand Vac

Good tool but need a better design July 17, 2008
Pro. suction power is strong, easy to use, brush can stir dust and help clean, basically, a good product

Con. if possible, a new design could consider this, while using this on carpet floor, many times it becomes hard to move forward or backward if carpet is newer, I have to push with both hands, the right hand behind the product, bear the hot wind and have to shut it down every 30 minutes. The handle should be placed not on top but on top of back, and hot wind vent may re-routed to lower position. Place the handle in back top can also help women user easier to operate this small device. I am a man with 220 pounds, it is still difficult for me to operate it sometimes. 2 handles may be better than just 1. Think about this.

I have furry pets and carpeted stairs July 16, 2008
I have a long haired dog and cat. I'm pregnant and can't very easily use a full size vacume on my stairs. I tried to use my hands to keep it picked up, but I couldn't keep up--the pet hair was making the stairs slippery, dangerous and dirty. So, I broke down and bought this little vac. It works great. I like the flip on the front for the brushes--it makes the vertical part of the vacuming really easy. It works great at picking up the pet hair--it works better than my full size does!
I can't think of any downsides so far. It is really easy to use.

If only it was cyclonic July 14, 2008
I agree with all the positives that so many people are raving about with this vacuum. I won't try to recap them all, but I don't see mentioned that this vac is also rather quiet for the power, especially compared to a Dirt Devil, which in my experience are painfully loud.

It would get five stars from me, except that this is the age of the cyclonics, and I would love to have all the features of this vac without so much reliance on the dust cap for first stage filtration. I've used this one for just a few weeks, and I feel like I already need to order new filters, even though I brush it off thoroughly every time I empty the canister. If Eureka offers a similar vac in a cyclonic, I'll probably buy it and put this one on ebay.

allergies July 13, 2008
My daughter and I both have allergies, I bought this Vacuum to do areas a normal vacuum can't reach. I was appalled by the amount of dander and heavens knows what this little vacuum picked up off our mattresses. I now use it once a week and every week it cleans just as well. Our sneezing and itching at night has gotten better !
