Best Vacuum we've ever had
We have nine kids and chewed through vacuum cleaners like crazy. We finally bought this commercial ProTeam vacuum over 5 years ago. After 5 years of use, we can only say BUY ONE FOR YOURSELF. Nothing else has come close to the power, ease of use, longevity, etc. as this. We've used Rainbow, Dyson, Kirby, Eureka--whatever. Look no further; this is THE quintessential vacuum cleaner.
Replacement for 26-year old model...talk about good old American value!
After 26 years of routine residential use, my Electrolux was no longer getting the carpets deep-down clean, so I shopped - hard - Consumer Reports, Amazon Reviews, web reviews. One -story house, about 1/3 hardwood floors and 2/3 carpet; two dogs) I was willing to spend about $300. The Miele (and its European or Japanese cousins) were just too pricey ($400+ not to mention the ongoing cost of bags). When a vac is referred to as the BMW or Mercedes of vacuum cleaners, you know it's going to cost way too much initially, and maintenance will be pricey - I owned a Mercedes...once.
Having used a top-rated Kenmore lightweight, bagless machine, I knew that I was willing to tolerate the bags since cleaning a bagless machine is tedious (you must clean ALL of the filters every time for maximum suckage) and messy (no matter where or how you empty and clean it, dust and debris end up all over).
So I concluded that it made sense to buy my original vacuum's grandson...
Clone of Electrolux - excellent
I have owned the Electrolux version of this "clone" model 15XP for nearly 15 years and this new ProTeam ProCare model appears to be the same excellent heavy duty design, except it has a HEPA exhaust filter and very useful updated tools mounting. This new 15XP model has very high suction and very aggressive powered brush. I hope it lasts as long as the old Electrolux which is still in service.
