Tools and Hardware Reviews of Refurbished Eureka Boss Upright Vacuum, R4870G
Customer Review: Worthless, broke quickly
Summary: 1 Stars
I read good ratings and thought this would be a good vacuum since I have a small apartment that doesn't get very dirty. This seemed to work well at first, but after about 5 uses it choked on carpet fibers and stopped, and will not start again. I repeat: It broke because it couldn't handle vacuuming on carpet! The whole thing filled with carpet fibers and was impossible to clean out, which is a moot point since it stopped working entirely. Biggest waste of money I've ever spent. No wonder all my friends tell me to buy a Dyson (which I did).Customer Review: Eureka Boss Upright vacuum

This vacuum, while given high ratings by consumer reports which influenced my purchase, has not lived up to my expectations. It is quite heavy and noisy. The cord is significantly shorter that my previous panasonic vacuum. And, within a month of purchase, a plastic part on the base broke off and now the has only two positions: completely upright or in the "ready" position. I cannot tilt on the rear wheels to go from floor to carpet; I must lift the entire machine onto the carpet. The only saving grace is that it has excellent suction.Customer Review: Good vacuum for the price
Summary: 4 Stars
A little heavy,the hose does not stay put, and the bag fills up very quickly but the on the positive side it vacuums very well. I would recommend this vacuum. My previous vacuum was a Electrolux I received as a hand-me-down from my mother. I would have loved to get another one but they were way out of my price range! I thought this was about as close as I could get since either Electrolux makes Eureka or vis versa. I am happy with this product. I don't know if it will last the 20+ years the Electrolux did but we shall see!Customer Review: Egad! Eureka!
Summary: 5 Stars
Though it's still early in the game (i.e. we've only done the floors twice since purchasing), the missus and I have been thrilled with the performance of the Eureka. Whether there has been great advances in vacuum technology since we last purchased one (it's been awhile), I don't know. I do know the Eureka has tremendous suction, gets up dog hair fantastically,(we have a generously-shedding lab) is easily manueverable, and in sum, as far as vacuums go, is a pleasure to operate. Not to mention the price was right!Customer Review: Refurbished Eureka R4870G Boss Upright Vacuum
Summary: 5 Stars
We really love this vacuum; it does a great job keeping our carpets looking new. This vacuum is extremely versatile; at the twist of a switch you can do carpets, wood and tile floors and even clean the filter on your clothes dryer! We have two minor complaints; the vacuum is a little heavy and the switch to tilt the handle can be somewhat difficult at times. All in all, for the price we paid, we are not complaining. We would highly recommend the refurbished Eureka Boss Upright Vacuum without reservation.
