Tools and Hardware Reviews of Eureka 4870GZ Boss Smart-Vac Upright Vacuum
Customer Review: 5 Star Vacuum
Summary: 5 Stars
After reviews here and there we bought one at K Mart for 134.99. It's the 4870HZ model and it's blue instead of red but has the same features as the GZ.
Compared to our old Eureka Bravo Boss it's much quieter. I literally wore hearing protection with the old one. The suction power is incredible and is also powerful via the hose attachments.
It's a bit heavy but solid; I'm impressed with the quality. The hose is first class and will not kink but it should be longer for pictures on the walls. I've never seen an upright vacuum with long enough hoses anyway.
The "power paw" is nice but will not replace our Dirt Devil power brush hand held model for dog hair on the furniture. The power paw brush stops spinning if too much pressure is applied. It's fine if used with a light touch.
The 30'long cord is great. Add an extension cord if you live in an older house with few outlets. RR bags at K Mart are 5.99 for 3
and could not find them at Walmart. I use an Oreck XL at work and this one blows (sucks) it away.
Customer Review: 5 years and still going strong
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this vacuum! Yes, it's a bit heavy but the powerful suction, quiet running, hard floor lever, carpet height adjustment and HEPA filtration more than make up for its weight. I've had mine for 5 years now and still feel it's a great vacuum and a great price. By the way, you can purchase the bags locally at Lowes and online in packages of 10 at [..] (the generic brand work just fine).Customer Review: 5-Star Performance!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a long-haired cat whose favorite pastime is to roll over on her back and grind her fur into the carpet. With my old vacuum, I'd run it over the same clump of hair about ten times, then I'd bend over and pull it out and lay it ever-so-gently on top of the carpet, then run over it another ten times before giving up and just picking it up and taking it to the trash. But with the Eureka Boss Smart-Vac, one swipe was all it took to suck up some seriously ground-in pet hair. The foot pedal might not trip with one bare toe, but it's hardly "Mission Impossible." It's not difficult to use either. It's so powerful that it moves forward on its own, yet pulling it back does not require any more effort than any normal upright. I used the lowest setting (bare floor) on some fairly plush carpet with no trouble at all. In fact, since I didn't have to run over every speck of carpet ten times, I vacuumed the whole house in the time it used to take me to do one room. The Eureka Boss Smart-Vac works like a dream! Many thanks to everyone who left reviews. You really helped me choose the right vacuum.Customer Review: 6 STARS PLUS !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've used the Eureka for over a month now, and it cleans like a dream. Every bit of pet hair is vacuumed up and I have 1 dog, 2 cats, and 1 husband, all of them shed & none of whom wipe their feet.
Put me on the list of 'almost bought a Dyson'. Thank goodness I didn't. This machine does a fantastic job, is easy to use, and has all the power that I could want.
And the Animal Dyson type that I was looking at was 2 and half times more money.
HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!!
Customer Review: A Bit Large, But Does The Job
Summary: 4 Stars
Overall, a great buy for the money. The Eureka 4870GZ has great suction, however it is rather bulky. It is not difficult to push and almost seems to be self propelled. The large size is the only real problem. Again, a good buy for the $$.
