This is the first time I bought a Kenmore product, and I’m very happy with the quality. As far as bagless, upright vacuums go, after reading hundreds of reviews this one seemed to have the best suction while still being light weight.
I honestly only have one single complaint about this vacuum and it would not stop me from buying it. I generally use the hose more than anything, if you are going to pull this vacuum by the hose, and you pull it on a diagonal it will tip over. Otherwise not a single complaint thanks Kenmore!

This vacuum is definitely light weight. It doesn’t have the solid feeling heavier vacuums have, but that’s ok. This vacuum is easy to lift and swivels nicely. The suction is out of this world! I bought this as a 2nd vacuum to do stairs and because the brush is self cleaning. This might be my main one because of the suction. I saw a noticeable difference in just the trial run I gave it. I really couldn’t believe it. My main vacuum is a Kirby, so nothing to sneeze at. This deformity cleaned my carpet better! I know some people felt it’s flimsy. Well, it’s lightweight, so they need to make the parts lighter and, for the cost, I’m not sure what they were expecting. The only con I see is that it doesn’t have a drive motor. You are pushing it with your muscles. No big deal to most, but if expecting that, you won’t be happy. Overall, I’m super happy with this purchase. It is better than I expected!!

This vacuum worked great for two years, only used in a small apartment, however, this past week while doing my usual vacuuming, the handle part snapped off the base. It’s disappointing that this happened especially considering the price and only having for 2 years.

Vacuum was ok. Suction pretty good. Placement of the suction hose is a nuisance. But I wouldn’t buy it or recommend buying it to anyone else. After a year and a half the beater bar/brush bar needed replacing, you CANNOT FIND IT ANYWHERE! Looked everywhere. Called both Kenmore in Canada and in the U.S.A. nobody could help and very rude costumer service. One lady hung up on me. Waste of money to only last just over a year and then its a paper weight.

My old vacuum finally bit the dust after 10 years so I needed a replacement. I was keen on getting one that was no frills, preferably bagged… no vornado, no cyclonic action gimmicks that just clog up and reduce suction. I found this vacuum while searching and the price was right in addition to being a brand I’ve trusted for decades. The fist thing that really stood out with this unit is the weight, easily less than half the weight of my old vacuum but when I used it the first time I was really amazed as it pulled dirt out of the carpet that my old vacuum had left behind. I have 2 cats and of course, shedding is a problem well this powerful little unit easily picks up the cat hair and dirt depositing it into a simple to empty cup.
Pros:
– Powerful suction
– Easy to empty dirt container, no more having to fish out pet hair
– Large dirt container, fewer stops to empty it
– Lots of different attachments, like seriously I’m not sure what all of these do
– Toe activated power button
– Foot activated head, easy to lower the head from locked position
– Easy height adjustment dial
– Lightweight, I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and this unit is easy to pick up
Cons:
– Attachments store on vacuum but can fall off if not properly clicked in place
– Upholstery beater brush attachment, the brush stops spinning if the upholstery is thick
Overall this is an excellent buy. I’ve used it several times now and I’m amazed at how much it picks up.

Let’s set the scene. I have mostly wood floors, tile in the kitchen, bathrooms, and dining, and high pile carpet in 3 bedrooms. I currently own a Shark vacuum. It was nearly impossible to push the shark around the carpet and rugs without adjusting the suction. I felt that if I adjusted for less suction, I lost cleanliness on the carpet and rugs. I do like my shark but it’s a pain sometimes.
I bought this Kenmore mainly for my shop, which I do a lot of woodworking in. Once I received this vacuum, I thought I would try it in the house first. If I liked it better, I’d use the shark for the shop. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! I will be keeping it for the house.
Pros: I was amazed at how light it was and the ease of movement. Suction was perfect! Easily maneuvered around the carpet and rugs without the beater bar getting stuck. It did a fantastic job pulling any hair and dirt out of the carpet and the other flooring. I had no problem with it blowing hair around like others have stated. I have a Great Dane, a main coon, and a black tabby cat. Its sleek and compact design REALLY helped with getting under the edges of the kitchen cabinets, coffee table and the sofa table. My shark would get jammed under due to its higher profile.
The power switch allows you to use the beater bar or not. That’s a nice feature for such an inexpensive vacuum.
Cons: As always, the cord could be longer. There is no front light to see the floor in front of you, but who vacuums in the dark. I did have issues with the attachment falling out of it’s holder, a lot. That was slightly frustrating.
In conclusion, this compact vacuum was worth the buy and try. The price was hard to beat and I’m certainly glad that I purchased it.

Great lightweight vacuum and pivoting head makes turning easy. Beater bar and suction really cleans carpets well.

Small, lightweight, good suction, easy to maneuver, easy to empty canister, cleans deeply & thoroughly. Only downside: cord does get in the way. Wish it had retractable cord.

After my “old” Kenmore vacuum broke down after 3 years (hose in the base broke down) ,I was looking to buy new one not as “fancy” and expensive as old one, so I got this vacuum. Much more simple, no hepa filters, no bags , no high tech. This vacuum is simple, user friendly, lighter, smaller vacuum. Great suction! I have 2 dogs and 1 sheds all the time and this vacuum picks dog hair with ease. There are manual 4 levels to adjust for height. The only comment I can make, I wish hose was longer! Power cord is long, a lot of attachments. I hope this one will last me longer than old, much more expensive vacuum! Highly recommended.

I’m old and live in a small place. I needed an inexpensive vacuum that was light, easy to push and had good suction.
I tried a bottom of the line at another manufacturer, but it did not have a height adjustment and it stuck to the floor when I turned it on. NOT GOOD. The second was not good.
So, I ordered this Kenmore. When the package came, I noticed the weight was substantial without being heavy, good start.
The machine is easy to put together, easy to use, has a height adjustment and it sucks. More good signs. Strong, easy, light enough is just what I wanted.
The wand extension is an interesting part. It has an adjustable nozel that has a release so it can convert from narrow to brush to open. I love it.
The “hair” brush off attachment suction driven and has a little rotating brush inside operated by a rubber band, that wasn’t working. There are a bunch of parts inside that aren’t attached to anything. When I opened it a pile of parts fell onto the table. It took my shaky hands an hour to figure out gmhow to put it back together.
There are a couple other improvements that could be made for ergonomics and convenience. There is only 1 clip for tool storage. It’s supposed to clip onto the handle and the tool clips into the clip it doesn’t work and won’t hold the extension or any tool conveniently. So the attachments can’t be stored on the machine.
The chord position means I have to bend way over to to wind the chord onto the holder. My back doesn’t like that .
Over all it’s a nice machine and I recommend it.
NOTE: I bought the extended warranty. There were some complaints about ability, so I paid the extra 15 bucks for peace of mind, in case it dies in 6 months.
