Summary: Love the Quietness 2008-10-08
Comment: I purchased this vacuum back in Jan '08 & it has been easy to use, lightweight, my cats don't mind me vacuuming anymore, I can easily vacuum and talk on the phone and the other person can't even hear it, easy to change the bags and it's a nice size for this small apt. My husband even vacuumed with it!! He actually was enjoying doing it, too! For the price, I highly recommend this one.

Comment: Electrolux EL6985B Harmony Ultra Quiet Canister Vacuum
PROS: machine is compact, very quiet, has plenty of power which is adjustable according to the surface. CONS: combination brush sometimes falls off the wand when you are using it and also falls out of its holder at times. Also the attachment releases on the wand are sometimes difficult to use. Pros out-weigh cons. The owners manual directs you to a "Eureka" vacuum repair facility for service

Summary: Oh My God, this is so good!!! 2008-09-10
Comment: Upright vacuums are among the US design peculiarities we europeans will never be able to understand (others include sliding windows in cold regions, ungrounded extension cords and the like).
Upright vacuums are heavy, bulky, cannot go under furniture, nor on the ceiling corners, in one word: stupid. Add to that the two options you have if you really want to buy one: either spend <$100 on a <100W one that will not do the job (ours was a disaster, I would have to pick stuff by hand on the floor after going over it 10 times with the upright). Or spend ~$400 on a "powerful" upright to get a rocket science head that makes a 1000 rotations per minute and can compute 100 decimals of pi but make the damn thing even heavier and unpractical. Stay away!!!
Do yourself a favor, spend a few more bucks and buy a canister vacuum (not a bagless one, another stupid design probably invented by a guy that never vacuums himself :-). The deal on this one is quite good: $220 instead of $400, if it ever was sold at that price.
Oh, I forgot I am actually supposed to review the thing, well, here is a few things:
- It is powerful: about 1100W, actually so powerful it is sometimes difficult to move the head over a rug when running at full blast (but you can reduce the power to make it go)!
- It is very quiet: our 1 year old daughter can sleep while I'm vacuuming in the next room.
- The head can go almost everywhere, for instance a couple feet under a sofa, and you can remove the head to replace it with a smaller thing to get those spider webs on the corner of the ceiling (try to do that with your hoover shmoover).
- the canister itself has the right size, i.e. it accomodates a sufficiently large bag without using much space when not in use.
Retrospectively, I cannot forgive myself for having bought an upright and kept using it for so long (3 years, I should get a medal). Now I actually look forward to my next vacuum session. Need I say more?

Summary: Love this Euro made product! 2008-08-30
Comment: I had just returned a Dyson to HSN because it was so heavy and loud my neighbors were blasting their stereos and I live in a solid 1929 building! This vac was so much easier to use and work with and fun. It's has some small things I'd improve upon but they are few and not that important compared to performance and value. You'll get attached to this ladybug in no time even if you're a man in a hurry to clean the apartment.
Also, thinking that if you've got an elderly person or Mom that needs to vacuum, get this lightweight, quiet, healthy filtered, and easiy to move-about vac with a handle/hose that extends and reachs way back and under the bed. Great purchase and a super buy at this price!

Summary: Harmony Electrolux 2008-08-17
Comment: I really like this vaccuum. It is quiet.( cats are still afraid though)We had electroluxes growing up which lasted probably 30 years. We electroluxed. We didn't vaccuum. What was vaccuuming?It was, whose turn is it to electrolux? Anyway,the hose is cheap plastic which is flexible but no comparison to the hoses of past with a tweed like covering and the natural hair bristles on round brush were really,really full. So prices are higher but they do short change a bit on the quality I would say. If I had never used and operated an old electrolux and didn't know any better, I would be 100% pleased with this one. I still recommend this vaccuum as I believe Electrolux makes an excellent product that lasts.
Just as Lazy Boy Recliners are the best recliners ever made.( worth paying more once )than buying twice or thrice.
