| The Breeze bagless canister vacuum from Dirt Devil combines lightweight maneuverability and versatile cleaning power. With a 12-amp motor and an 11-inch carpet nozzle, the Breeze cleans thoroughly without full-size bulk or messy bags. Its multiple attachments also make it great for bare floors and above-floor cleaning. Conveniently transparent, the bagless dirt-collection cup pops off with a simple mechanism for easy emptying. Dirt Devil's Permafilter--inside the dirt cup--helps filter dust and debris and lasts the life of the vacuum with regular cleaning. In addition, the MicroFresh filter traps 99 percent of dust allergens inside the machine. The Breeze is structurally smart and rests stably upright or flat, and it even comes with a carrying strap for above-floor cleaning. In addition to the machine's stretch hose, Dirt Devil includes a 10-inch floor nozzle, two extension wands, a dusting brush, a crevice tool, a tool-clip on the extension wand, and two carrying handles. Other handy features include a 360-degree swiveling front wheel, sturdy back casters, and a quick-release clip for the dual power cord hooks. --Emily Bedard |

| This is the best vacuum I've had yet for hard wood floors. I have 1 child, 2 cats ,a dog and a bird and it literally was a breeze on all of their mess, such as candy wrappers, hair, cat litter and seeds. We have a large townhouse and I could do the first-floor and steps without having to replug somewhere else. The dirt canister is larger than I thought it would be and the suction was great! It's also very easy to clean. It is lightweight and easy to handle and the micro-fresh filter only needs to be replaced 2 times a year ... (Now that makes me breathe easy). The only thing I can come up with that I would change on this vac is that it does not have a retractable cord. |
Suits our needs and pocketbook perfectly!

For hard surface floors with pets (dog, cats, bird) & kids this vacuum is perfect. It is light-weight and compact, easy to use, easy to store. Except the carpet attachment (which we rarely use) accessories attach to the handle, convenient for use & storage. My wife likes the machine because it rolls nicely and is light. I prefer toting it across my back (strap included).
Related to other reviewer comments: (1) The new model has only one filter with recommended changing once per year. (2) Suction is very adequate but not what I expected of a 12 amp motor. Perhaps the HEPA filter requires extra horsepower. (3) When the house is really dirty, the cannister is probably best emptied after every room. (4) Less dusty than compressed air, we use a shop vac to clean the cannister and filter. It gets fine dust out of the filter. We feel we have to be careful, however, not to scrape the filter with hard edges of the suction tube. (5) Power cord retraction would be nice, but I am glad not to have the weight and bulk of such a mechanism.
Summary: This machine is efficiently designed, optimized. The addition of anything more would be a detraction. Because it is easy to use, it gets used more often. If you have carpet, spend the big bucks. If you don't, this machine will do the job nicely. The low price & HEPA filter are nice bonuses. |
Great for hard wood floors and tile! (Not for carpet)

| The perfect vacuum in this price range for hardwood floors and tile. Great design, long power cord, light (so it's easy to actually carry around, vs. dragging on the floor). Comes with handy attachments for getting into nooks and crannies. Although I rated it 5 stars, this is NOT the vacuum for you if you have rugs or carpet. There is no "spinning brush" on this vacuum, so moving it across carpet is difficult and won't clean nearly as well as a vacuum designed for that purpose. Otherwise, I couldn't be happier with it. |
Good vaccum, good price

** Update **
I have owned this vaccum for a year now with absolutely no problems! I haven't changed the air filter, just clean it from time to time and it's still picking up dirt and dust like magic!
** End of Update ***
I actually found this vaccum at Big Lots for $70. Our home is very dirty, since we have an acre and a half of land, which is mostly a dirtbike track. With the windows open all day for summer and everyone riding in the backyard, kicking up dirt, the house gets dusty and dirty in a matter of a day and a half. The first day I used this, I was amazed as to how much dirt it cleaned up in just one room! It was almost half way full! This vaccum is very light weight, easy to put together, hides well in your closet and a great price. The filter isn't hard to clean either. Just tip it over and empty out the dirt and dust, and the dust bunnies that stick to the filter, just take it outside and blow it with the air compressor and viola! Clean filter. Overall a very reliable and easy to use vaccum. |
