Tools and Hardware Reviews of Factory-Reconditioned Electrolux EL 6989 Ultra Oxygen Canister Vacuum
Customer Review: Works for me
Summary: 4 Stars
My vacuum arrived just a few days after I placed my order; it was well packed and everything in the box looked brand new. A bag and both filters were included. I knew that my antiquated Hoover was doing a lousy job, but I certainly didn't expect to fill the bag in my new machine in just one vacuuming session! The only problems I see are that the instructions are not very detailed; they don't tell you, for instance, what some of the attachments do. Nor do they mention that the canister will not close if there is no bag in the machine; that's a good safety feature, but it would be nice to know that it's a design feature and not a problem with the compartment door. I find it hard to detach the power head from the wand and the two sections of the wand from each other. So it's not easy or quick to switch from one attachment to another. Nevertheless, this machine did a great job on my orientals, a thick carpet and wood floors.Customer Review: great for people w/ allergies
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent, can't even tell it is refurbished. In great shape, few scratches. works great! Cleans the air while you vacuum. Power head for carpet and attatchments work great,and I have a dog and a 3yr old. Love the retractable cord. this is my first canister, also considered a kenmore, but I don't like sears warranty w/ fixing appliances.Customer Review: no suction - very dissappointing
Summary: 1 Stars
My parents bought me this vacuum for my new home, which is full of hardwood floors, some area rugs and a dog. The vacuum looks great, is very easy to handle, but has zero suction - the suction "sucks" if I may say so. The bare floor attachment is decent and picks up pretty well, but the carpet attachment... I was in tears one night kicking the thing I was so frustrated. Which is probably why the main canister no longer has a handle... I thought it was just me because I hate to vacuum, but when my mom came to visit, she was shocked at how bad it operated. Maybe I got a dud, but I really think that if you are going to spend this much for a vacuum, go for one with more suction.
