Eureka 5892AVZ Bagless Upright Cyclonic Vacuum

Pros: Power, bag-less, HEPA, rinsable filters, breaker on carpet brush avoid belt breaks
Cons: Not good with fine powders (clogs filters), short hose.

BOTTOM LINE: If you own pets, this vac is for you. If you frequently use carpet powders or use your vacuum to clean up fine powders (baking soda, flour), this vacuum is not for you, because they will readily clog the first two filters, ...

Pros: Sealed HEPA filter
Cons: flimsy, breaks easily, on-board attachments are lousy, noisy, heavy,

This vacuum is a horrible machine. We bought ours in Dec 2006, and at first, we were really impressed with how much dirt it picked up (that our old vacuum didn't). We noticed it was oddly noisy, but just figured that was the way it was. Less than a ...

Pros: NONE!
Cons: Very Heavy, bad suction, duster swings everywhere, on board tools don't work good at all!

This is the worst vacuum cleaner I have ever used! (Purchased April 07)It is too late to take it back, but I will have to take the loss and buy a new one. It's not worth the grief!! The vacuum is much to heavy to be dragging up and down the stairs. ...

Pros: It started out good!
Cons: Looses suction all the time.

All I can say about this vacuum is OUCH!! This is the second Eureka that I've owned that spits sand out the back of it at you while you're using it. We live in Florida the (sand state) and my dogs are regularly dragging sand in the house on their paws. ...

Pros: Has pretty good suction when all of the filters are clean
Cons: The roller is easy to clog and brake. Roller motor too small and under powered.

Looked good out of the box with the yellow on black color scheme. It was easy to spot in the back of the closet, and will be easy to spot by Waste Management when they come collect the rest of the garbage. The useless dusting wand is not secure to the ...

Pros: On board attachments make it a whole-house cleaning machine.
Cons: Poor quality, had less than two months of good performance.

When I first purchased this vacuum I was pleased with the strong suction and the on-board features of the power paw (wonderful for upholstery) and static duster (telescopic handle reaches ceiling fan, above door frames, etc). I did notice that frequent ...

Pros: This machine has excellent suction and I like the telescoping duster that comes with it.
Cons: The on-board hose and attachments are difficult to use.

Purchased this machine based on an excellent recommendation; it would have been better if I had been able to try it our BEFORE investing in the machine. Now that I've used it and it's naturally dusty, etc. how can I possibly return it to the seller? We ...

Pros: spinning brush head attachment (if it works)
Cons: weight, suction, duster, reset button, propulsion, bare floor function

What a horrible vacuum cleaner! After just 6 months of use, I sold it for $25 in a garage sale just to get rid of the thing. First, the spinning dust brush, although possibly a good idea, is a horrible design. The end of the handle pops off, the ...

Pros: Good suction, very thorough, easy to empty.
Cons: Belt constantly breaking, canister a little small, dusting attachment is worthless.

I bought this vacuum based on some good reviews and a surprisingly reasonable price. A few months and many, many belts later, I'm ready to try again. This vacuum has great suction and truly does beat the dirt from the carpet. But it only does this if ...

Pros: Attachments Stay Attached, Cleaning/Suction Great, Maneuverability, Price, Quality, Quieter for Pets Ears and Mine.
Cons: Hose collapses from suction when using tools affecting area that can be reached like stairs...

I have purchased many vacuums over the years spending as much as (embarrassed to say) $700. We are pet owners and currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats indoors. This can really wreak havoc on a vacuum. I have been buying vacuums about every 2-3 years as none ...

Pros: Great Suction Great Price Great pile of dirt returned outdoors
Cons: A Bit Noisy Pulls Forward Hard Some Models Lack Upgraded Features

We recently purchased this Eureka to replace our debunked fire breathing Kenmore upright. I am a penny pincher and was looking for a well rated affordable unit, and after a bit of research we found this model. We were looking for a bagless, system with ...

Pros: Great suction, easy to use, affordable, good on-board accessories, hard floor/carpet switch
Cons: Weight, noisy Power Paw, yellow color

I was in the market for a new vacuum, did all the research and narrowed my choices down to three - all Eureka's, and all with similar features - the 5849 Boss, the 5850 and this one, the 5892 AVZ. I looked for deals online and found this one on sale in ...

Pros: Very powerful cleaner, on/off switch for brush, Keeps Dust in, turbo brush
Cons: Extension Hose quality n length poor, Heavy

I needed a new vacuum to replace my 5-year-old vacuum. It was a Kenmore Progressive and was having some issues. It had been a good vacuum. After some research I purchased the Eureka 5892AVZ from Costco. I just used it today, and I have to admit I am ...

Pros: Suction galore, on-carpet cleaning, easy cleanup, well-made
Cons: Floppy hose collapses with suction, spin duster so/so, pricy considering attachements you might need

I admit it, I like a clean home. And after years of vacuuming with a $50 Hoover hand-me-down, it was time to upgrade and see what I was missing. I came to find out what I was really missing was a ton of dirt! What I wanted: I was looking ...

Pros: Power, size, on/off switch location and attachments.
Cons: Hose housing is plastic, so be careful.

I purchased this vacuum after years with a Hoover. I searched on-line, read reviews, and then looked at my pocket book. This one seemed like a great value. I was not disappointed. The cord is quite a bit longer than my last one, so I haven't had to ...
