Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Powerful, versatile, and great for people with allergies, this 12 amp Dirt Devil Swivel Glide vacuum has cleaning options for the whole house, and it's easy to use, to boot. The machine offers seven floor settings, controlled by a front-mounted dial, to clean everything from bare floors to deep nap in its 14-inch cleaning path. Rear-mounted swiveling casters--they spin 360 degrees--let you turn on a dime for more efficient floor coverage. The hard-shell design protects the collection system, and the MicroFresh slide-in filter traps 99 percent of dust, allergens, and pollen. Bag and filter changing is simple, thanks to the one-step release that removes the entire front panel. As for standard structural features, the handle release is a foot pedal, while the power switch is hand controlled. The power cord stores on dual hooks, one of which swivels for quick release. This model includes an onboard hose with a handle and onboard attachments--an extension wand, a crevice nozzle, and an Edge Wedge for corners, stairs, and upholstery. Extras include a furniture-friendly Scuff Guard bumper, a carrying handle, a strong headlight, and a bag-replacement indicator. Dirt Devil's Motorguard system keeps the fan and motor from overheating. --Emily Bedard

From the Manufacturer

  • The Dirt Devil Swivel Glide is the world's most maneuverable upright. Its patented Swivel Casters wheels make it easy to push and turn on even the deepest pile carpet while its powerful 12 amp motor sweeps away deep down dirt.
  • Onboard hose and tools allow for effortless cleaning of curtains, upholstery, furniture and more.
  • Dirt Devil's Hepa-Type Filtration System helps trap more than 99.97 percent of dust and allergens making it a little easier to breathe for allergy sufferers.
  • The Ultra Swivel Glide has Dirt Devil's patented MotorGuard system, which protects the powerful 12-amp motor from damage. Air and dirt bypass the motor and fan and go directly into the dirt container, so your upright won't be damaged if you vacuum up larger debris.
  • Patented Swivel Casters make for easy pushing and turning.
  • An oversized Scuff Guard bumper helps protect furniture from nicks and scratches.
  • 7-position carpet-height adjustment allows you to easily raise or lower the nozzle for different thicknesses.
  • The bright headlight allows you to see under beds and furniture and in dark corners.
  • The Edge Wedge attachment reaches into corners to chase down dirt.
  • 25-foot power cord allows you to clean an entire room.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE EASY VACUUM!!, January 23, 2002
By 
"imagine311" (UPSTATE, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dirt Devil 086340 Swivel Glide Plus Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
Just what you need a vacuum to be...easy to push, almost like the self-propelled models that retail for much more money. The headlight is very bright, allowing you to see exactly what you are sucking up even in the darkest corner. The carpet height settings are great and it even works well on a bare floor, not something you often find in a vacuum cleaner. It is realatively light, easy to assemble (just pop the top on), and you are ready to go. The attachments come in handy for getting into the corners of old staircases, and removing pet hair from furniture. I highly recommend this vacuum cleaner to anybody looking for an EASY JOB!

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this piece of junk., June 9, 2002

This review is from: Dirt Devil 086340 Swivel Glide Plus Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
I own a medium-sized two-bedroom condominium and a big dog that sheds. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a vacuum cleaner so I bought the Dirt Devil Swivel Guide Upright, which promised to be a sturdy, efficient, yet affordable model. "12 amp Maximum Vacuum Power motor has 50% more suction at hose than conventional brands" says the packaging. What a joke. So far I've vacuumed a bedroom, a small hallway, and about half of my living room and the vacuum has clogged THREE TIMES! These clogs are not easy to remove either. For the first clog, I had to get a coat hanger, twist it into a small hook, and then snake it down the hose to get all the dog hair and dirt out. The vacuum makes you wait a HALF HOUR before you can use it again! After waiting the required 30 minutes, I was able to use it again, but only for another 5. Yes, within 5 minutes it clogged once more. This time I had to take the bottom off and clean that out, getting dust and dirt all over the carpet where I had just cleaned. Of course, I had to wait another half hour to use it again. Then it clogged a third time. All this and I haven't even vacuumed half of my living space yet! I have no idea how long it's going to take me to vacuum this place. Maybe I should take Monday off from work so I can finish it. Even when the vacuum isn't sitting idle, you have to run it back and forth over an area about 5 or 10 times before it will pick everything up. And even then it won't pick up all the dog hair - on numerous occasions I was forced to reach down and pick the hair up myself. Wonderful. That pretty much defeats the whole purpose of having a vacuum cleaner doesn't it? The big selling point for this model is "Easy Push Swivel Casters," which Dirt Devil says makes it "The World's Most Maneuverable Upright!" Well that's good, because I'm about to maneuver it back to the store where I bought it. What a piece of junk. I guess you get what you pay for.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's good!, October 16, 2004
By 
This review is from: Dirt Devil 086340 Swivel Glide Plus Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
This is a good vaccum. The only reason anyone would have a clog is because they don't have it on the right carpet setting. If you would leave it right in the middle, I promise you will not have these problems. Anyway, it's a good vaccum. It does everything you want it to do. It sucks up dust and dirt very well. I have two birds that leave a mess everyday. With this vaccum, It cleanes the mess and leaves a good clean look, and sometimes smell too. This is a good vaccum. I highly recommend it, however, I would not recommmend it to people that don't read the instructions and don't change the carpet setting.
