    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 is loaded with user-friendly features to take the frustration out of vacuuming. A wide cleaning path covers a lot of ground quickly before company comes. And, unlike inferior models, the Boss is designed with a brush-view window that shows you how hard it's working, letting you actually see the powerful brush roller remove dirt from carpets and floors. 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. --Brian Olson

  • Do not buy, not worth for money
    I had this UREKA vacuuum for 1.5 years and it gave trouble after 8-10 months. First the brush rotated but no suction. You have to give it rest for 1-2 hours and when the motor cooled down, it worked again. Today after doing 2 rooms only the whole component died. I put that to rest but not sure whether it will awake again. I do not recommend UREKA to anybody. Just not worth it.

  • I love it! But...
    I absolutely love the suction on this vacuum. It works so well, that with 3 big indoor/outdoor dogs and 3 cats, I have to change the bag every couple of weeks. On the other hand...the release peddle is pretty hard to push and I have to push on it several times before I get it down. The extension hose also always falls off the hooks. The carpet/bare floor feature has never worked and after only a couple months I can't even change the carpet height!! I don't know if I just have a dud or what. Other than that, the suction works great and I love it! But as for the one I have...I have to take it back.

  • Great Purchase!
    This is a great deal for the money. I had one of these and ruined it by vacuuming up a wet carpet by mistake. I took it to be repaired and found it was cheaper to replace than fix. So I bought another one. I love the sealed in filter, it's easy to use and push, and it's not as loud as my old Dirt Devil. Excellent buy and I received it in 2 days!

  • Do not buy this vacuum
    I've had this vacuum for several months now and as the previous reviewer mentioned, after a few weeks, I also had the same problem where the carpet brush would not run on our average carpet fiber height even on the highest setting (the brush would not spin) so it generates a constant rubber burning smell due to the fact that the belt is burning itself out. The belt is not flexible and you can't adjust the tension. I changed 4 belts so far and now I'm throwing this vacuum away. I've given up.

    I subscribe to Consumer Reports and always purchase several items based on their recommendations as I did with this vacuum. I tell you one thing, they definitely messed up on this one. I guarantee you the people who work there, did not test this vacuum long enough to discover this major flaw.

    The person that works at the vacuum store told me: Why in the heck did you buy this model? He told me he's had several people complain about the exact same issues...

    So my advice to you is SAVE YOUR MONEY!!

  • real problems with the motors
    Bought the vacuum cleaner at a great rate from an amazon store front great people to deal with. The cleaner started out great then a pop and nothing. Went on line to an authorized Eureka dealer and spoke with an associate. Took it to the site they recommended and found out that the motor had burned out. Seems this is a real problem with the vacuum as many have been replaced with new motors. The associate (off the record) said it was junk. All plastic, not well made. I bought this cleaner on others opinions and was greatly suprised with what I did get. Needless to say I am now out of a vacuum for a few weeks for repair especially since I live 75 miles from an authorized dealer to repair it. I would think again before I bought another.
