Product Description

Amazon.com Review

It reaches high; it reaches low; it carefully reaches in between to get things clean; Eureka's Altima Bagless Upright Vacuum offers unsurpassed versatility and sucking power for cleaner floors and carpets. A foam filter system features an easy-to-empty dust cup with no messy filter inside, and is equipped with an external, 2-stage filter that stays cleaner longer. A telescoping, self-cleaning duster extends three feet to easily reach corners, ceiling fans, blinds and all those hidden nooks and crannies that never get clean. Eureka's exclusive Edge Kleener spinning edge brush gets within millimeters of walls to clean right up to the baseboards without harming the finish. The Altima is also equipped with Eureka's Power Paw brush for easy cleaning of stairs and upholstery, and for clawing up embedded pet hair, so Fido can spend more time inside and not feel so bad about it. The motorized brush lets you go from carpet- to bare floor-cleaning with the flick of a switch. Best of all, the Altima is equipped with a sealed HEPA filtration system that captures 99.97 percent of dust, pollen, allergens, and bacteria, so vacuuming the house doesn't mean you have to dust afterward, or sneeze while you're doing it! A beefy, 12-amp motor offers plenty of suction power. Not only is the Altima packed with tools designed to clean faster and easier than ever before, the Altima also features a 15-inch cleaning path that's narrow enough to fit between table legs, but wide enough to cover a lot of ground fast when company is on the way. --Brian Olson

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy it!, July 15, 2006
By 
This review is from: Eureka 2971BVZ Altima Bagless Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
I loved this vacuum for three months. It picked up pet hair dander and dust better than most. I babied the machine, cleaned out the dust container mid use and washed the filters and dust cup after each use. Then it happened, a loud noise a small amount of smoke and the belt had snapped, the brush mount melted and the housing destroyed (from the melted brush mount). Eureka representatives said the part that failed was not under warranty and has refused to replace or repair my relatively new vaccum. They even said it was my fault for not keeping it at a high enough setting for my carpet (I keep it on the highest setting). It would have cost me more to repair than replace the machine. I have had great luck with Eureka products in the past but with their response (or lack thereof) I will not buy a Eureka again. Do yourself a favor and don't buy a Eureka Altima.

1.0 out of 5 stars It started off good...., October 10, 2006
By 
This review is from: Eureka 2971BVZ Altima Bagless Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
but keeps going downhill. I've had this vacuum about9 months now and already need a replacement. In the first month, the "power paw" stopped working, but from the very beginning, I found that the upper filter would clog up so quickly that I had to empty it every couple of minutes or the vacuum would either not pick up very well or it actually "spit" dirt back out. I washed the filters after every 2nd use, but had to replace both of them after about 4 months (and they aren't cheap) because they became so clogged up. After about 6 months, the belt broke and the motor almost burned up. I now believe the old adage that you get what you pay for.

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible - don't waste your money, January 31, 2007
This review is from: Eureka 2971BVZ Altima Bagless Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
We've had two of these vacumn's and now after the second one failing the sameway we won't be having anymore.
We got the first one and after about 6 weeks the suction just died on it,we called Eureka and they told us we'd need to take it in for a service,WHAT after 6 weeks of once daily use are you kidding me ? Then they tried all the excuses "did you use it on new carpet","have you vacumned something wet with it" etc etc and no we hadn't done any of those,yes the filters were clean as was the dirt bucket and yes we'd been cleaning it after every use,i was taking great care of it but they were no help,thankfully Target graciously took it back without a receipt for store credit and being it'd worked fine at first we thought it was just that vacumn and not a model problem overall so we got another .. UGH it's been 10 weeks and now this one has done the same thing and just stopped sucking,i'm getting no suction from the bottom at all,the tube works but with three kids,2 dogs and 2 cats i can't vacumn that way all the time,i need something reliable.
This vacumn is also heavy and the duster doesn't stay in the holder which is just plain annoying .. with the lack of assistance from Eureka i won't buy another product of theirs infact we're just plain giving in and with it being tax return time are going all out and getting a DC17 from Dyson ..
