Tools and Hardware Reviews of Eureka 8853AVZ CAPTURE PLUS Pet LoverCustomer Review: NO MORE HAIR!!! Summary: 4 Stars
I don't think anyone's dog sheds NEAR as much as mine! After 5 years of using a cheap Bissell and having to run the vacuum over the same spot 10 times (and still not getting all the hair up) I finally broke down and shelled out the extra cash for something that I *hoped* would work better. Well, the Eureka Capture Plus Pet Vacuum was well worth the dough! And here's why:
First of all I love the design. It is so much easier to use than my old vacuum. The handle provides a comfortable grip and the body of the vacuum, although a little cumbersome, distributes the weight surprisingly well so that it's easy to maneuver. I don't have any problems storing this vacuum despite the fact that it's so much bigger than my old one. It rolls away in the closet and out of sight quite nicely.
The suction power on this sucker is amazing! Of course, I've never owned one of those vacuums that you have to put a down payment on, but I don't really feel the need since this one does the job I need it to. It took me half the time to vacuum an area and get 99% of the hair up than the old one which only got 75% of the hair up. Maybe the vacuums that require a credit check will get 100% of the hair up, but I can make due without that extra 1%.
I swore I would never get another bagless after my last vacuum. But while out shopping for a new vacuum I started to realize that bagged vacuums are becoming a thing of the past. Luckily, this vacuum doesn't cause me the same problems with the bagless feature as my old vacuum. It's MUCH cleaner. It twirls the doghair into a little spindle inside it's compartment so it doesn't all come flying out when I remove the container to dispose of it. It's really nice to not have to vacuum a second time just to clean up after cleaning up!
I really dig the extra tools that it comes with. You get a duster that has it's own compartment where, with just the press of a button, the vacuum will suck the dust off of it and into it's compartment (and gives it a little static charge as well). You get your usual suction hose with attachment pieces for stairs and those hard to reach places. And you get your pet hair brush which works great on a variety of surfaces. In my honest opinion, this is the best part of the vacuum, because my couch is a dog hair MAGNET!
My only complaint about this vacuum is the back design where the hose and power cord are. The hose is hard to reconnect to the vacuum, I'm always afraid I'm going to break it's snap-piece. And the cord doesn't stay wrapped while vacuuming. So even if you only need a little bit of slack--too bad, you're going to get it all. But honestly, for these minor flaws the whole vacuum is still worth it.
I believe when it comes to vacuums you pay for what you get, and this vacuum is a great value for it's price! (Oh, and, I got it MUCH cheaper at Target).
