Product Description
Amazon.com Review
An update on previous Fantom bagless models, the Twister upright combines multi-surface capability with on-board tools and HEPA filtration. The vacuum is suitable for carpets and bare floors, with a 16-inch cleaning path, multiple height adjustment, edge-to-edge suction, and an optional-use agitator brush. Designed for minimal contact and tidy emptying, the vacuum's bag-free dust cup features a quick-release latch and a sealed lid. When dirt and debris accumulate inside, you simply remove it and empty the waste into a trash bin. A washable pre-filter and primary filter help trap dust and small particles, while the high-performance HEPA filter targets pollen, bacteria, mold, and plant spores as small as 0.3 microns. An on-board 10-foot hose and tools come in handy for above-floor tasks and tight spaces. Attachments include an extension wand, crevice tool, upholstery tool, and dusting brush. The upright also comes with a headlight, 30-foot power cord, and one-year warranty. It measures 16-1/2 by 14 by 46 inches, and weighs 30 pounds. --Emily Bedard

Avoid this vacuum,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fantom Twister 700LX Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
Prosgood suction, bagless is easy to use, it was easy to manuver around Cons The Bottom Line Full Review I bought the machine on 6/13/03 from the Home Shopping Network. I am returning the machine on 12/29/03. At the very beginning, I thought I had found the perfect vacuum. It was a wonder machine, and I was impressed with the stair tool, and the power it had to get up dirt off stairs. But I was soon very very disappointed. MANUFACTURING problem: Almost immediately, the bottom grey plastic part that holds the cord (when its not in use you wrap it from top to bottom on the back of the body of the machine) broke off. So it was hard to store the cord without the cord coming loose. BELT problem: Within the first 2 weeks the first belt broke. Ok, not a big deal. But the next belt broke 5 months later. Most other machines I have had, it took at least a year to have a belt break, sometimes longer. TOOL problem: Within the first month the stair tool broke. It would not pick up dirt anymore and I was unable to figure out why. ELECTRICAL problem: Also, in late October, this machine developed from what I can determine an electrical problem. The power fluctuates high and low, high and low, so there is not a consistent sucking power in the machine. It will not pick up dirt like it once did. This is the biggest problem with this machine. WHEEL problem: Then just a week ago, one wheel fell off. I am unable to reattach it. CUSTOMER SERVICE problem: About the time I realized there was an electrical problem, I called HSN to complain. To my dismay, they informed me it wasnt their problem and I had to call the company who sells them, EuroPro. So I called EuroPro, and after navigating through a terrible maze of recorded telephone options, I got a human being on the phone. She informed me I had to send the machine back and that it would take 4-6 weeks to get it back. Once it was in their plant, they would determine if they fix it or send me a new one. I requested my money back, and they said they do not do refunds. Ridiculous!!!! I have never heard of such prehistoric customer service policies. I have to live without a vacuum for 4-6 weeks??? I have to pay for shipping this heavy machine back to the company??? I have to find a box to fit it in, because I threw out the box already, in my excitement of how wonderful it was initially (lesson learned there). So I called HSN back to complain, again, and they said basically Sorry Charlie but here is ten dollars toward your next purchase. Gee Thanks. Not sure if there will be a next time. Being a new customer to HSN, this has me very skeptical now. Well, I asked for a real vacuum from my family for Christmas to replace this one because I cannot live without a vacuum for 4-6 weeks. What a waste of money!! This Fantom is a piece of junk and I really want my money back, rather than the machine fixed. By the way, if I see the infomercial again, I might be calling to tell people my testimony and experience with this machine. If you get away with lousy customer service, and selling such a poorly made machine, people should know that before they buy. UPDATE 12/29/03: HSN, after sending several e-mails to customer service and also to their parent company, called me back and agreed to take the machine back and give me a refund, and also refund my shipping costs too. They have earned a customer back. EURPRO still stands by its policy of no refunds, 4-6 weeks time to fix it, and the buyer paying to ship the broken item back to them and the buyer also must pay the return freight back, a cost of about $40 total to the buyer. Recommended Amount Paid (US$): 199

The worst vacuum I've ever owned,
By
This review is from: Fantom Twister 700LX Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
And that includes my first bagless, a bissel that shot sparks from the power cord.This cleaner is by far the worst. We purchased this cleaner in Feb 2004 after our old dirt devil finally went to vacuum heaven. First the good: This cleaner has a large cansiter and is easy to empty. It is lighter than some other vacs and has great suction. I once sucked up a toddlers t-shirt that ended right up in the canister without jamming the machine. The bad: within 24 hours of first plugging the machine in the light burned out. After a period of abotu 4 months it had significantly lost suction despite cleaning the filter multiple times. We had problems with the on/off button from the get-go, it was very hard to push and unpredictable. 6 months after purchase it died. Just turned off in the middle of cleaning never to restart again. Euro pro customer service leaves a lot to be desired. Now I will be the first to admit, we are hard on vacuum cleaners. With 5 kids ranging in age from 2-10 we clean a lot off our floors. However I have never had a vacuum last less than 2 years besides this one Don't spend your money on this thing.

It's already stopped working at 2 months old!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fantom Twister 700LX Upright Vacuum (Kitchen)
Ok, I loved this machine for the first two months. It picks up dirt I never knew I had. It's easy to operate and empty. The tools are also a nice feature. I'm very disappointed that it stopped working already. When vacumming, it has started turning itself on and off causing all the lights in the house to dim when it does this. After a few minutes, it just completely stops working at all. The headlight comes on but no motor. It would be a nice vacuum if it was reliable.
