ideal vacuum cleaner, March 3, 2010
This review is from: Bosch BSA2101UC COMPACT VACUUM (Kitchen)
Since we have wooden floors through out, I bought this vacuum cleaner for the rugs. Suction is good and adjustable. This vacuum cleaner is light, easy to carry stairs up and down. The big wheels are a good design feature, it makes it easy to move around when using. I have had it over a year now, and I am still content with this cleaner. The only drawback are the bags, they are not cheap.

Great vacuum cleaner, March 13, 2011
This review is from: Bosch BSA2101UC COMPACT VACUUM (Kitchen)
This is a fantastic little vacuum cleaner. I was hesitant to purchase it at first due to the lack of information about this product on Amazon compared to the others I was looking at. I have had this a couple of months so far.
The facts (that would have been nice):
The cord is about 17' long which is really no problem with this canister vacuum as the hose and attachment is very long;
It is made in Germany. For others like me that are sick to death of buying poorly made garbage from China, this was the final selling point for me. NOTHING that I have ever bought that has been made in China has lasted very long and is generally very badly and cheaply made. Pay the extra few dollars and get something decently made.
1-year warranty. I was led to believe on other websites that all Bosch small appliances have a 5-year warranty but the warranty with my vacuum clearly states just 1-year.
The vacuum came with the universal floor attachment which has 2 settings for hard floors and carpet. It also came with a furniture/drapes attachment.
I live in an old 2-story 1400 SF house. All the floors are hardwood and tile but I do have a few heavy wool rugs. I also have 2 dogs. The vacuum has worked perfectly on all surfaces and is more than capable of picking up dog hair. It gets right up to the edge and nothing is left behind. Very impressive. The super long hose and attachment enables me to get under all the furniture with ease.
The canister itself is very maneuverable and follows along easily; it has not tipped over once so is well balanced. The wheels do not mark the hardwood.
On a low setting it is very quiet. I tend to have it on a higher setting for the rugs at which point I would say the noise level is better than some vacuums but nothing to write home about.
Yes. Air does blow on you if you stand right over the canister, but really I do not find this an issue and not worth removing a star for.
The bag is extremely easy to remove and replace.
Overall I am very happy with the performance of this vacuum; lets hope it proves to have been built to last.

Broken cord, July 7, 2009
This review is from: Bosch BSA2101UC COMPACT VACUUM (Kitchen)
This is a great stylish little apartment vacuum and it really, really works well. It is quiet and light. I only have to complain about the retractable cord breaking in the second week. I really don't mind, I just wrap it around the vacuum when I am done.
