Review and Giveaway: Eureka SuctionSeal Vacuum

Three weeks ago I was given the opportunity to review the new Eureka SuctionSeal Vacuum. The Eureka SuctionSeal claims to clean carpets better that the Dyson DC25 or DC41 for a fraction of the price. Some of you may remmeber than about a reviewed the Eureka AirSpeed Bagless over a year ago.  The Eureka SuctionSeal combines this Airspeed technology with Suction Seal technology to deep clean all floor surfaces. All-Surface Suction Plates create a seal to direct airflow and suction for powerful cleaning on all floors.

So, what did I think about this vacuum? Over all the Eureka SuctionSeal is excellent, its easy to use, no too heavy, drives itself forward well. This vacuum cleans carpets, and cleans them very well. The SuctionSeal technology creates enough suction to pick up the dirt from carpet and floors. The vacuum weighs 20.7 lbs which is the same as the Dyson DC41. We liked the self winding power cord, as it has 39′ of extended reach. Removal of the canister and cleaning iwas very easy. I don’t think I could ever own a vacuum that doesn’t have a canister system. They are so convenient and you never have to worry about running out of bags. The hand tools were easy to use and storage for tools was well configured.

The one con I found on this vacuum was that you have to start the brushes with your foot every time you lower the handle to vacuum. The vacuum has a foot lever on the left side that you have to depress with your foot to activate the power brushes. Every time you put the handle back into the upright position, then lower again (with the foot release), you have to repress the brush lever as well. Not a deal breaker in my opinion since the value you are getting is great!

This vacuum is available at Walmart only for $148.88 and it ships free to your home!

Win it!

One lucky Common Sense with Money reader will win a Eureka SuctionSeal vacuum courtesy of Eureka.

1. Leave a comment sharing who gets your floors dirty.  I will tell you who gets my floors dirty: my dog Max!  He sheds dog hair on the carpet and tracks in dirt on his paws.   I am constantly cleaning my floors. Thanks Max!
