Amazon.com Review
An update on previous Fantom bagless models, the Twister upright combines multi-surface capability with on-board tools and HEPA filtration. The vacuum is suitable for carpets and bare floors, with a 16-inch cleaning path, multiple height adjustment, edge-to-edge suction, and an optional-use agitator brush. Designed for minimal contact and tidy emptying, the vacuum's bag-free dust cup features a quick-release latch and a sealed lid. When dirt and debris accumulate inside, you simply remove it and empty the waste into a trash bin. A washable pre-filter and primary filter help trap dust and small particles, while the high-performance HEPA filter targets pollen, bacteria, mold, and plant spores as small as 0.3 microns. An on-board 10-foot hose and tools come in handy for above-floor tasks and tight spaces. Attachments include an extension wand, crevice tool, upholstery tool, and dusting brush. The upright also comes with a headlight, 30-foot power cord, and one-year warranty. It measures 16-1/2 by 14 by 46 inches, and weighs 30 pounds. --Emily Bedard

Summary: Do not buy this vacuum 2005-08-15
Comment: This is my third Fantom vacuum. And it is by far the worse vacuum that I have ever purchased. It does not work well and it is very very heavy to push. It does not pick up well. This vacuum was not build by someone who knew how to build a vacuum or has ever used one. I will never buy another Fantom... Thank you

Summary: The worst vacuum I've ever owned 2004-08-26
Comment: And that includes my first bagless, a bissel that shot sparks from the power cord.
This cleaner is by far the worst. We purchased this cleaner in Feb 2004 after our old dirt devil finally went to vacuum heaven.
First the good:
This cleaner has a large cansiter and is easy to empty. It is lighter than some other vacs and has great suction. I once sucked up a toddlers t-shirt that ended right up in the canister without jamming the machine.
The bad:
within 24 hours of first plugging the machine in the light burned out. After a period of abotu 4 months it had significantly lost suction despite cleaning the filter multiple times. We had problems with the on/off button from the get-go, it was very hard to push and unpredictable.
6 months after purchase it died. Just turned off in the middle of cleaning never to restart again.
Euro pro customer service leaves a lot to be desired.
Now I will be the first to admit, we are hard on vacuum cleaners. With 5 kids ranging in age from 2-10 we clean a lot off our floors. However I have never had a vacuum last less than 2 years besides this one
Don't spend your money on this thing.

Summary: Wow!This is what comes out of a 5 by 7 carpet that ......... 2004-04-14
Comment: First off I would like to say that alot of people accuse people who write good reviews for this vacuum of working for Euro-Pro/Fantom. I am only 14 years old. I will update this review if the mechine breaks. I had a old Fantom Thunder with Dual Cyclonic Technoligy. It was still working. I bought the Twister.Ran over the 5 by 7 carpet with the Thunder then the Twister. Wow, did it pull out alot that was left behind. I love everything about this vacuum.The bottom empting canaster with the Twister nob you turn, the Hose handle, and its carpet to bare floors setting. Finally, I bought this vacuum new at K-mart
for $159.99 and it even came with the air driven turbo brudsh.Buy it.

Summary: run away don't look back 2004-02-02
Comment: Do not buy a fantom product. I'am on my third one in two years. They all broke after dishing out big bucks. They are not built to last. I bought them becuse I vacuum every day do to three golden retrivers. This is a terriable product very cheaply made.

Summary: It's already stopped working at 2 months old! 2004-01-23
Comment: Ok, I loved this machine for the first two months. It picks up dirt I never knew I had. It's easy to operate and empty. The tools are also a nice feature. I'm very disappointed that it stopped working already. When vacumming, it has started turning itself on and off causing all the lights in the house to dim when it does this. After a few minutes, it just completely stops working at all. The headlight comes on but no motor. It would be a nice vacuum if it was reliable.
