I bought a Panasonic upright bag vacuum about 15 years ago from Amazon. It has an automatic cord reel, picks up every and because my wife has bad allergies, I needed something with a HEPA filter and the bag vacuum really outclasses our Dyson Ball Animal. The Dyson ball gets used when we vacuum out the cars. The Panasonic replaced the Dyson and cost less than half the price.

Miele or Sebo. I have a Panasonic upright that has been going strong for 14ish years, that's pretty good too.

Henry. He just does the job perfectly and looks all cute and smiley as he does it. Honorable mention to Panasonic, though. I had one and it was just the best. Nothing fancy, just a regular upright vaccuum. But a great machine.

Wow! Very nice! This was a golden age of these Panasonic upright vacuum cleaners. They were light, powerful, and super easy to use and service. Bags and belts are still available, as they take a generic belt size and HEPA bags for Kenmore uprights (the Panasonic designs) can fit in this era of Panasonic upright. It does have some age on it, so be mindful of any noises or vibrations that seem abnormal. When in doubt, get it checked at a local vacuum cleaner shop. Most will be more than willing to look at this unit. I would love to see a customer bring one of these for service.
