Moves More Air. Removes More Dirt

Combining powerful suction and extra reach, the Eureka AirSpeed Gold is a bagless upright vacuum that cleans carpets better than the leading uprights.* Boasting innovative AirSpeed Technology, AirSpeed Gold offers deep cleaning throughout the whole home. The cleaning experts at Eureka know that superior cleaning is important to their customers, but just as essential are specific tools and attachments to attack personal cleaning challenges. Eureka’s AirSpeed Gold delivers remarkable cleaning power, convenient tools and an easy-to-use design -- all in an affordable package.

AirSpeed Technology

The key to the cleaning power of AirSpeed Gold lies in its AirSpeed Technology. Unlike most other vacuums with a typically winding hose, AirSpeed Technology has two smooth tubes, featuring limited bends and turns. This allows more air to pass through the vacuum and offers a powerful, deep clean that removes more than just the dirt you can see. The direct air path from floor to cup decreases the distance for dirt to travel, which increases the amount of airflow for powerful suction.

Whirlwind Cyclonic Technology

Eureka’s Whirlwind Cyclonic Technology offers maintained suction power and less maintenance** by separating larger debris from fine dust once the dirt is delivered to the dust cup.

Powerful Air Flow

For above-the-floor cleaning, an airflow control switch easily directs air from the base of the vacuum to the hose. This allows users to concentrate all of the vacuum’s suction power where they need it. When deep cleaning carpets, the power is directed to the floor. When using tools to remove dirt from hard-to-reach areas like stairs or baseboards, the power is concentrated in the extension hose.

Getting the Best Results

• Moving brush roll, power switch should be in suction only position when using hose. Do not use the cleaner without the filter and bag properly installed. This can damage the cleaner.

• Some fine particles can restrict airflow very quickly and will decrease performance even before the dust container appears full. For that reason, when vacuuming carpet fresheners or cleaners, powder, plaster dust or similar fine substances, the dust cup and filter may need cleaning more often.

• Use the cleaner to pick up dirt and dust particles. Avoid picking up hard or sharp objects that could damage the vacuum cleaner.

• To avoid unnecessary service calls, check the hose, dust cup and motor filter often. Clear a clogged hose, empty the bag if it is full, and clean the motor filter when it is dirty.

Eureka AirSpeed Gold Bagless Upright with AirSpeed Technology

This vacuum assembles easily without tools. Don't be concerned when Step 1 states that the main handle snaps into place when pushed down and it doesn't. The main handle actually becomes locked only when the "carry" handle is attached in a subsequent step.

I already own a Dyson and this vacuum compares favorably. Both have powerful suction. I actually prefer the Eureka's utility tool hose operation to that of the Dyson. The stair/upholstery hose attachment works especially well.

The Eureka is bagless, but it does have two filters which require periodic replacement. The DCF 21 canister filter is $15.18 each on Amazon. The EF6 exhaust filter is $8.37 each. In total, filter replacements will probably amount to $50 plus per year based on Eureka's 3 to 6 month replacement instructions, although one can extend the canister filter life somewhat by keeping it brushed out. By contrast, the Dyson's filter is washable and lasts for years.

The ergonomic centrally located carrying/lifting handle on the Eureka is a strong plus for users like me with steps, stairs, and lots of immovable objects that require the vacuum be placed into small spaces. The Dyson's thin handle is at the very top of the machine which makes it difficult to lift.

The power cord on the Eureka exits the machine at the bottom rear of the vacuum, directly in the footprint of the user. I've now become somewhat used to it but one must constantly avoid stepping or walking on the power cord.

Overall, I probably still prefer the Dyson but by only by a slight margin. The Eureka should be an excellent value if it turns out to be durable and dependable.

Out of the box, I loved this vacuum. It has powerful suction and I can't believe how much dust and dirt it picked up - it really does a great job at cleaning!

Now to the bad part. I have never owned a vacuum that required this much maintenance and cleaning. According to the product maintenance tab on this page, after each use you are supposed to empty the canister and then clean the filters. doing this, took us 15 minutes and made a dusty mess of the air and our hands. Who wants to play in the grime that you just vacuumed up and get the dust all over the place?
On top of that, you are supposed to replace several of the filters every 3 months. This is where they get you. It's almost $40 to do this.

I am taking it back to the store. This vacuum may be inexpensive to buy, but it's not worth the cost and hassle to maintain.

I am surprised that there aren't more reviewers that are mentioning this. While browsing thru the reviews the only thing I can come up with is that the people are reviewing it after just buying it, before they probably realize what a pain it is to own.

Wow! May 5, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
I had to break down and buy a new vacuum. The one I had was literally falling to pieces. I wanted one that had similar features, upholstery vacuum, extendable wand, etc. I was also looking for one that had good cleaning abilities. I was a little hesitant at first, when I ordered this vacuum it had just become available on Amazon and had no reviews. I decided to go for it.

Had it for less than a week, but so far it is a cleaning beast. I have two children and really only three bedrooms that need cleaning, rest of the house is tiled. I just emptied the canister and wow is all I can say. It had stuff, more than likely was sitting deep down in the carpets for a long time. I commented to my wife the carpets actually looked clean after vacuuming them. Had the other vacuum for 4 years.

Pros: (so far)
Easy to manuever, does not seem unwiedly
On the lowest carpet setting will actually pull itself forward
Lots and lots of suction
Long reach with cord and hose
Not very loud, pretty typical noise output
Seems to be well put together

Cons: as I see it
Cannot turn off beater brush
Does not make coffee

Longevity remains to be seen, but for the money I would say give it a shot.
