Owners of the Hoover UH70210 WindTunnel Pet Vacuum give it very good marks for its ability to pick up unruly pet hair. They are also pleased with its strong suction and washable HEPA filter. However some find the hose a little short and the dirt canister tricky to empty. All-in-all consumer reviews are quite favorable, giving the UH70210 consistently 4 out of 5 stars or better.

The Euro-Pro Shark NV22L Navigator gets great reviews, has a solid 5 year warranty and can often be found for under 200USD. We have not looked at a Euro-Pro vacuum before but after repeatedly seeing good reviews and ratings for this particular model, the Euro-Pro Shark NV22L Navigator, we decided to dig a little deeper. We were not disappointed. [REF Euro-Pro Vacuum Cleaner Reviews 2010]

This is a reasonably inexpensive bagless Hoover upright with most of the bells and whistles. It is also viewed favorably by consumers and is a recommended model by Consumer Reports Magazine. It doesn’t have the long warranty of those vacuums in the Hoover Platinum Series, but the two-years parts and labor warranty is still better than some of the other machines in this price range.

The Oreck upright is the worlds top selling vacuum, It is used in most major Hotels around the world and here in the states it is used by most of the top cleaning companies such as The US Giant, Molly Maid, or smaller maid companies such as Merry Maids. The XL is short for extended life. So all Oreck vacuums, air cleaners and Irons are called Oreck XL. The upright XL is crude in design and very simple, if you take the base plate off you will find a small motor the size of a baseball, a roller brush and small rubber belt. That’s it, but because it’s so simple that’s the beauty of the Oreck. There is not much to go wrong. Most have the same small motor, The Commercial has a tougher motor and the XL21 is different, but all follow the same principle.

This is perhaps the highest rated vacuum cleaner we have had the opportunity to review – it is also a pretty recent addition to the vacuum cleaner market. It should be noted however that at this time we found only 23 reviews. But even so, the average review was 5 stars out of 5 with the machine getting high marks for power, maneuverability, lightweight construction, and a 6-year warranty.

This machine seems to have all the key vacuum cleaner features as well as very strong suction. It is also not as expensive as some of the other Dyson uprights, however many consumers love this machine or hate it. It does not get the very consistent high ratings of the Dyson DC25 Animal for example. Owners are pleased with the powerful suction, long cord and large dirt canister however there are numerous comments regarding the less-than-stellar wand design and the noise generated when vacuuming on short carpet.
