Product Description

Amazon.com Review

The Breeze bagless canister vacuum from Dirt Devil combines lightweight maneuverability and versatile cleaning power. With a 12-amp motor and an 11-inch carpet nozzle, the Breeze cleans thoroughly without full-size bulk or messy bags. Its multiple attachments also make it great for bare floors and above-floor cleaning. Conveniently transparent, the bagless dirt-collection cup pops off with a simple mechanism for easy emptying. Dirt Devil's Permafilter--inside the dirt cup--helps filter dust and debris and lasts the life of the vacuum with regular cleaning. In addition, the MicroFresh filter traps 99 percent of dust allergens inside the machine. The Breeze is structurally smart and rests stably upright or flat, and it even comes with a carrying strap for above-floor cleaning. In addition to the machine's stretch hose, Dirt Devil includes a 10-inch floor nozzle, two extension wands, a dusting brush, a crevice tool, a tool-clip on the extension wand, and two carrying handles. Other handy features include a 360-degree swiveling front wheel, sturdy back casters, and a quick-release clip for the dual power cord hooks. --Emily Bedard

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent vacuum !, March 8, 2002

By	Raven_Fan (Baltimore, Md USA) - See all my reviews

This is the best vacuum I've had yet for hard wood floors. I have 1 child, 2 cats ,a dog and a bird and it literally was a breeze on all of their mess, such as candy wrappers, hair, cat litter and seeds. We have a large townhouse and I could do the first-floor and steps without having to replug somewhere else. The dirt canister is larger than I thought it would be and the suction was great! It's also very easy to clean. It is lightweight and easy to handle and the micro-fresh filter only needs to be replaced 2 times a year ... (Now that makes me breathe easy). The only thing I can come up with that I would change on this vac is that it does not have a retractable cord.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's OK, November 25, 2002

By	M. A. L. "metal_monkey" (USA) - See all my reviews

I bought this vacuum cleaner for the air filter because, at the time, it was about ... less than a HEPA filter vacuum. I also wanted to try a bagless vacuum cleaner.

The suck power of this vacuum is good, but not about to pull up any carpet. I found that having a bagless is not all it's cracked up to be - especially since trash and dirt are affected by static electricity and don't always pour right out. Make sure you clean the filter outside -- banging it around inside the house will just put dust back into the air.

The vacuum is compact and stores well. I'm a little displeased with the handles, though. I don't think they're air tight enough.

3 stars means I'm satisfied, but when it's time to get a new vacuum I'll look for a different one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suits our needs and pocketbook perfectly!, November 2, 2005

By	R. Knapp (MT USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

For hard surface floors with pets (dog, cats, bird) & kids this vacuum is perfect. It is light-weight and compact, easy to use, easy to store. Except the carpet attachment (which we rarely use) accessories attach to the handle, convenient for use & storage. My wife likes the machine because it rolls nicely and is light. I prefer toting it across my back (strap included).

Related to other reviewer comments: (1) The new model has only one filter with recommended changing once per year. (2) Suction is very adequate but not what I expected of a 12 amp motor. Perhaps the HEPA filter requires extra horsepower. (3) When the house is really dirty, the cannister is probably best emptied after every room. (4) Less dusty than compressed air, we use a shop vac to clean the cannister and filter. It gets fine dust out of the filter. We feel we have to be careful, however, not to scrape the filter with hard edges of the suction tube. (5) Power cord retraction would be nice, but I am glad not to have the weight and bulk of such a mechanism.

Summary: This machine is efficiently designed, optimized. The addition of anything more would be a detraction. Because it is easy to use, it gets used more often. If you have carpet, spend the big bucks. If you don't, this machine will do the job nicely. The low price & HEPA filter are nice bonuses.
