Low Price Eureka 3670 Mighty Mite Canister Vacuum

This is a very lightweight, all plastic vacuum - not really a true canister vac. I purchased this vac solely for use in vacuuming my automobiles and it is perfect for that. The unit is extremely light - perhaps only four pounds or so - meaning that it can easily be lifted and moved around. It is small - about 16 inches long by 6 inches wide by 8 inches tall - so it will easily sit on a car seat while being used. Alternately, the hose in long enough so that the "canister" unit can be left on the ground outside the car.

The angled arm end makes it easy to get under the front car seats while keeping the small head attachment against the carpet for full suction. As well, the small head attachment is double-headed. It features a three inch flat head on one side and a bristled upholstery brush on the other - convenient for flipping between car carpets and upholstery. The only tool that is lacking somewhat is the narrow wand used for getting into tight places. The wand is designed with a notch cut up into it, so you cannot achieve full suction. The bag is large enough that you could vacuum dozens of full sized cars before having to change it. The unit functions perfectly for such use, but it is a bit noisy and gets very hot from even a couple of minutes use. Nevertheless, the light weight, light duty attributes of this vac means that its design functions well for light work such as vacuuming cars.

However, it should be noted that this is a vacuum that costs far less than one hundred dollars, so one should not expect a true, heavy-duty canister vac. It is a very light duty vacuum and not one that I would consider using extensively in my house. The unit is a noisier than mid- or high-end vacuums and at four pounds with rather cheap all-plastic construction with a motor that gets very hot rather quickly, it doesn't have the feel of a vacuum that would last more than a year or two with household use. As well, the full-size floor head is a lightweight plastic unit that attaches via two hard plastic hose lengths - not a fixed, full-size arm - thus use on household carpets or floors would be awkward for some.

I like this unit and am very happy with its performance for the use for which I purchased it, but anyone purchasing it for extensive household use might consider this as an auxillary or supplemental vacuum and not the single unit for such use.Get more detail about Eureka 3670 Mighty Mite Canister Vacuum.
