Suction power is very good. It is easy to maneuver and assembly was easy. The cord is a bit long for household use but easily changed due to the removable cord. I haven’t had to dump the bag yet but will probably change to the disposable bag eventually. Since it isn’t possible to stop the brush roller, it isn’t meant for bare floors. Great for what it was intended for though. Just a good no-frills upright with a brush roller and good suction. Just what I wanted. I chose this one for the longer motor life. We have a commercial grade carpet with padding under it in our apartment and this vacuum lifts the carpet just like the Kirby used to. So it has great suction.

The 1st issue was the button that you pressed on with your foot to release the handle from the Upright position was very hard to operate. Sometimes it worked Sometimes it didn’t. Don’t know if I got a bad unit or not but it was a deal breaker . The 2nd issue was that the clip that holds the cord on the handle broke the very 1st time I tried to wrap the cord up on it. Too bad because otherwise it seemed like a good vaccum .

I have owned several Commercial vacuums some of the cheeper ones and less watts are not worth the problem’s. I found this commercial upright vacuum on amazons New/Used inventory, the only difference I could see was that it didn’t come with original box, there are no noticeable defects what so ever, the vacuum bag was never used and still in original sealed bag, it had not even been put together so I know it wasn’t refurbished or worked on and so far it all works great and for a great price. It is a little heavier than the others I own. It has plenty of power and is great for picking up pet hair.

Great vacuum. Same model used in numerous commercial applications. Very sturdy and power cord is heavy duty. Most vacuums come with roller brushes, but the Sanitaire comes with brushes and a “beater bar” that smacks the carpet and allows the brushes a better chance of cleaning debris from carpet fiber. I use in my basement area that is half workshop (concrete floor) and half carpet. I constantly drag saw dust from the workshop side to the carpet side. This vacuum is the only type designed well enough to dislodge and vacuum up saw dust in the carpet. Does a great job no matter where you use it at. Granite you have to remove and manually empty the vacuum bag (I use a dust mask when doing so), but the vacuum never needs replacement paper bags.

The vacuum arrived very quickly, easy to assemble, and our dusty carpets are gone, and now we have a well vacuumed showroom floor area.

The media could not be loaded.
Purchased this vacuum less than a month ago and it has already broken down. I use it maybe once a day and the handle has become loose causing the motor to not recognize which direction the vacuum is going therefore not helping the wheels propel forward and making it extremely difficult to vacuum. I had big expectations for this brand but now I am debating weather I should give them another chance or go with a competitor.

I have worked custodial services for years, this is the vacuum we always use. Easy to service and takes a lot of abuse. Bought a new one for home, had a household version of a Sanitaire for 20 years, but they are now discontinued. So I got the commercial one. Long cord is great, plug it in once and do the whole house. Practically sucks up the rugs. Very powerful. Nothing special just a strong, old school vacuum. It will do the job.

Amazing amazing amazing Suction power. Pulled crap out of the carpet I didn’t know existed. Everything else is so so about it. Build quality feels flimsy especially at the handle. Yes it has some metal but that metal is attached to plastic which makes me thing that plastic ain’t gonna last long. Ease of maintenence is awesome. Features suck but if you want a vacuum just to vacuum then you ain’t gonna find better. It will make ur carpet cleaner then you ever had it. I will never buy a vacuum from wally world or target again. Just a word to the wise, do not empty the bag indoors unless you want a mess.

Been looking for a good commercial vacuum for my bar/restaurant. Even bought 2 different Commercial Hoovers that both didn’t last a year before breaking. This thing is a tank and out sucks any vacuums we’ve had. The first night they used it at closing I came in to a note HEY BOSSMAN “THIS VACUUM SUCKS!!!! IN A GOOD WAY WOW!!!!” A+++
