Eureka - RapidClean Pro NEC280TL

We recently replaced an earlier stick vac with an inexpensive Eureka and are very happy with it. It was on sale for $90 and seems pretty sturdy for the price. and yet it’s lightweight, nimble, and very ergonomically pleasing. The various attachments snap on and off very easily and cleaning it is a breeze. The head isn’t all that wide so it might take a while to do a large room but for a quick cleanup it’s great and it would be good for smaller homes. (For reference, ours is 2 floors, and a combination of carpet heights, wood flooring, tile and linoleum, plus some throw rugs, etc. It’s good on all of them. I’m really surprised at how much I like it! Even the cats are ok with it. It is part of the Eureka NEC 280 Series.

I’ve got the Eureka, I’m on my second. After about a year the battery wouldn’t hold a charge. I do use it often, daily around my own 850 sq ft mostly tile house and often on light jobs at work—I’m a professional cleaner. It’s fine! It’s not great, but I’ve not been resentful of my purchases. I like it better than Dysons. I’d think it last two to three years for a regular usage person, especially in a space that small. I read that the battery only gets 200 charges so you should use until the battery dies before plugging it back in. That said, next time I’ll likely get the Levoit just to try it out. Hopefully it lasts until I can afford a top dollar stick vacuum for home, they’re so convenient!

I have a Eureka RapidClean Pro Dyson-style cordless canister vacuum. My parents have the equivalent Dyson model. We bought them around the same time in 2020. We both have pets, and our usage is similar. Mine works better and clogs less often. They ask to borrow it regularly because the Dyson is clogged or just not getting the job done.  I paid $119 They paid $500 In this case, I'm glad I didn't go with the hype.

Eureka Rapid Clean Pro. We have two of them. We have one long haired cat and one Basset hound in the house. Had a Dyson and it was AWFUL, same problems you have had.

I have a robot for each floor (3 Shark brand) and this cordless stick vac (we have two, actually) https://a.co/d/aZgVqYd. We bought the stick vacs more than a year ago and they're still going strong. The important thing with the stick vac is to clean the roller bar (we have long hair and cats) often and to have extra filters on hand so you can change those often too.
