Oreck Commercial U2000R-1 120V Red & Gray Upright Vacuum Cleaner

Sasha: My last vacuum( Shark) just died and previous to that my big heavy purple (over priced) Dyson vacuum was not that great. My sister suggested Oreck and figured It could not be any worse that the Shark..To my surprise it was fantastic. Very Light (8lbs) weight just what I needed (arthritis) and recommend by arthritis foundation. It really picks up; and cleans very well.. This is a no frills vacuum. Mind you no extra bag of ( brushes etc) which I never used anyway with the two previous vacuum cleaners. . It is light weight and is very powerful. I highly recommend it. It has a long cord length, very easy to maneuver around furniture and under the bed. I should of bought this brand years ago and saved myself a lot of frustration and money. It does have bags but that is the only minor detail. I can get used to that again. It is a little loud but so what big deal if that bothers you et some ear plugs. It is very powerful watch the fringe on your oriental rugs. I suggest to give it a try you don't have anything to lose. I am glad I took a chance an purchased it.

Olywa: Great suction and simple machine. Would advise using it on carpets all on same floor. Very heavy and does not adapt to changing flooring materials westeingly prefer the Magnesium.

Joe De: Light weight, powerful and a very long cord..... It's brand new so I don't have may hours of use on it, but it seems to be a simple, well built machine..
Also, it's great to have the old style bag system again... Emptying canisters, and cleaning filters is a nuisance, and causes more mess and dust to cleanup.... The bags work fine... It seems there are upgraded bags available that filter the return air better. I have no idea if they really make any difference.

Lauren: Received this great vacuum 2 days early which was pleasant surprise. Decided on Oreck after trying at my sisters house. OMG what a revelation! This 8 lb vac is replacing a 22 lb beast. So light and easy makes vacuuming a breeze and easy to whip out for quick cleans. Moves from carpet to hardwood to vinyl without missing anything. Also vacuums rugs without rumpling them. Lies flat and goes completely under bed. The only slight disadvantage is that being a commercial vac it comes with heavy duty cord which is difficult to manage around rooms of home. But it is detachable so I might look for compatible lighter weight flexible ext cord. And it’s a great heavy duty 40’ ext cord. Also have a dyson hand vac at home which has all the attachment tools we need. I’m completely happy with this Oreck and will never go back to a beast.

T Mat: Bought as a spare vacuum to use on second floor. This machine really sucks. Seriously, I am impressed with the amount of suction produced by this light machine. I have a dog and it cleans hair and dirt off carpet and hardwoods equally with no adjustments. The beater bar does an excellent job of fluffing carpet fibers in heavy travel areas. The filter bag does a good job capturing all of the hair and dirt with minimal smell. The long cord is helpful. I am using this vacuum for all house floors as it works so well and is easy to use. Great vacuum for the price.
