Sanitaire EUKSC679J Upright Vacuum Cleaner for Commercial Shake Out Bag Cleaning

Christina oChristina o: Bought this after becoming familiar with this model from work. Used for a 4 rooms of a 2 story home. The belt has needed replacement about bi-monthly, roller falls apart every 6 months or so, but the bag takes almost a year to get 3/4 full(I change it early) Still this vacuum has lasted longer and works better than any bagless I've ever had.

Cassie Fabre: So we got almost a shag carpet put in when our long haired, black lab was like 5 months old. So we asked our carpet guys what they suggest. And literally. It’s the best suction on a vacuum ever. We also have a ton of sand and a ton of hair from our dog and it does the job BEAUTIFULY 😍

We have had the vacuum and and carpet for 8 months now and it still is amazing. I literally vacuumed last night and told my husband how soft the carpet was when I was finished. Highly suggest it. I also works in concrete or tile. Seriously, best thing ever.

My husband put it together very easily when it arrived. It’s old school to open the bag to dump, so it took us a minute to figure out- but super easy when you know what you are doing.
Not heavy. Very easy to maneuver. It doesn’t have extensions though. So we kept our old cheaper vacuum to get the base boards and tight places.
Our carpet installers suggested it and use it at work and at their homes.

Jose Costa: It is a strong vacuum the only problem I found it’s the cable holder, it’s gets broken so easy, other than that it’s a really good product.

J. Wheeler: Great vacuum for the price. I also have the SC899F, which has the 7 amp motor. This vacuum with 5 amps is more than powerful enough for all the carpets I've used it on (I clean carpets for a living).
The SC899 is a little over-powered in some situations (not in a good way), but the SC679J has just the right balance between power and size to be more maneuverable, and ample power (with very good airflow) to clean carpets that the larger SC899 tries to eat.
The wood brush roll (with bushings, not bearings) works well, but can be difficult to re-install when taken out for cleaning. This is solved by applying WD40 to the rubber end cushions and carefully re-inserting the brush roll until fully seated in the body again (the wood can swell in certain seasons, and shrink in others so it can vary in size slightly).
The shake-out bag system is fairly easy to clean, just take it outside and carefully turn it inside out, vacuum it with a hose and brush, or gently sweep the dust with a whisk broom to clean the fabric. Turn it back right side out and clean the outside. It only takes a few minutes when you get the hang of it.
These "dirty air" vacuums rely on...

MBKW: You know you are getting old when... you look forward to a vacuum cleaner being delivered.

I love this vacuum cleaner. I had a Hoover bagless upright for a few years and the canister broke. Of course it did; it's plastic, it gets dumped 2-3 times per vacuuming the house, and it was a POS. That thing was so heavy that I literally sweated when I used it. Now THIS Sanitaire - *queue the angels singing* - is a Godsend. It's so light that I can actually use it on the stairs. No, it doesn't have attachments, but that's okay! I would rather have no attachments than pay for something that doesn't ever really work or is outright dangerous (my old Dyson attachments would bring that thing tumbling down on me when I was cleaning the stairs). This Sanitaire weighs less than 12 lbs. I can vacuum all day and not get tired. I even use it on the hardwood floor to vacuum up the dog hair. It's great for that. Don't get the wrong idea though; I can't vacuum up the wood chips from the wood stove or any hard objects; those just get spit back out. But the suction on this thing is phenomenal, so I can vacuum near a clump of dog hair and it gets sucked up on the driveby. It's...
