Beyond satisfactory,
This review is from: Oreck Commercial OR100 The Oreck Upright Vacuum Premier (Kitchen)
I just received this vacuum cleaner today. Mine is actually the SOR100, same cleaner only mine has an aluminum brush roll and the housing is chrome not black. My first impression of this when I took it out of the box was the quality of the unit. Steel housing, aluminum brush roll, easy assembly, just an over all solid feel. And it easy to remove the brush roll and fan to clean.
Since there isn't a great description for this vacuum cleaner I will give some of the details. It is the commercial series of the Oreck vacuums. It has a reusable bag and a 50 foot long power cord (this model may be only 35). The wheels on the back are wide and easy to roll. It has six adjustable carpet settings, ( although most people will probably just use one or two) it doesn't self adjust like the domestic line of Orecks. The cleaning path is 12" and it doesn't have a light. However, it only weighs about 14lbs and is super light to carry and push around and it will lay completely flat so you can get under furniture. My only complaints are few and not enough I feel to lower my rating. The bag is reusable, that's great right? No more bags to buy right? Well the only problem is that when you empty the bag it tends to throw some dust into the air. Because of this you may want to empty it outside, a small inconvenience but worth it when you see just what this thing gets out of your carpet! Another gripe I have is with the cord storage system, the clips are plastic and don't rotate to allow the cord to fall of in one motion. You have to unwind it by hand. Only takes a few seconds but still, would be a nice feature to have. And since the clips are plastic, I doubt they will last long but they are replaceable, so we'll see how it goes. The only other complaint I have is that isn't made completely in the USA like their domestic vacs, it says designed and developed in the USA but made in PROC. Which I assume is the People's Republic of China. Now, I primarily bought an Oreck because I thought all their uprights were made in the USA and I hate to buy Chinese made goods. However, it shipped from a plant in Cookeville, TN which makes other uprights. It would appear that these vacuums might be made in China but the final Quality Control check is still done in the USA. This is actually fine by me, as it means there are still jobs for US citizens even though the vacuum is made overseas. You wouldn't be able to tell it though by the build quality. True this vacuum doesn't have all the bells and whistles as the other vacuums have. It doesn't have a hose attachment or any on board tools. Fine by me, I have never owned a vacuum with on board tools where the hose didn't start slipping out over time. Such a pain to be vacuuming for a bit only to realize the hose has come undone and you have to redo that section. As someone said on another review, everything made is a Swiss Army knife anymore, nothing is made to do one thing well, only do several things ok. Well I'll tell you this vacuum does clean carpet and it does it well. This vacuum is not for use on bare floors or hardwood floors. It has a feature on the brush roll that will damage a bare floor. There are only two rows of bristles, but opposite those bristles are metal nubs that when they pass over the floor they vibrate the carpet.( this model has a fiberglass brush roll so I don't know it has the vibrator feature ) This causes the deep down dirt to be vibrated out of the carpet so the vacuum can suck it up. Very cool! Update: I just wanted to add, after reading the first review that this vacuum eats belts, I think I understand why they are having a problem. You have to set the carpet height higher than you might think. The vacuum should just slightly, and ever so slightly drag on the carpet, it should glide over it fairly easily. If you set it too low, the brush roll just digs into the carpet and causes enough friction to heat up the belt. I know if you are used to using a department store vacuum you think it needs to drag on the carpet but this vacuum picks up very well without beating the hell out of the carpet. Just buy it and use it and you will see what I mean.

Oreck light weight vacuum cleaner,

This review is from: Oreck Commercial OR100 The Oreck Upright Vacuum Premier (Kitchen)
This does only a mediocre job at best. It eats belts so keep plenty on hand. The only good feature it has is that it is light weight.
