Dirt Devil Breeze Bagless Upright Vacuum Review

When it came time for me and my now ex to buy a vacuum a bit over two years ago, we both agreed that spending a crap ton of money on a vacuum was not the way to go.  Sure, I can pay $400 for a Dyson or some other ridiculously overpriced brand, and maybe my floors will be a bit cleaner, but exactly who am I supposed to be impressing?

After some searching, we came home with the Dirt Devil Breeze Bagless Upright Canister vacuum.  At $80, it represented good value from a known name (granted, neither of us had any clue if said name was actually any good), and could be used on hardwood floors, which was our biggest concern at the time.

Two plus years later, and I've had zero problems with this vacuum.  It not only was excellent on the hardwood floors at my old place, but it is just as effective on the tile kitchen floor and carpeted floors at my new place.  Since I have a cat, there's a LOT of cat fur flying around, and this seems to get just about all of it. 

It came with the accessories you need to do a good job in each area of your house.  The cord is long as well, so if you have a lack of plugs, that shouldn't stop you from getting done what you need to get done.

Replacement filters are easy to find, and are relatively inexpensive ($12-$20, depending on where you go).  This machine still sounds like it did the first day I bought it.  It is rather loud, but again, I'd rather pay less and deal with a bit more mess than be stuck with some $400 vacuum that works great but is hardly worth an extra 3 + bills.

If you're looking for a solid, reliable vacuum at an affordable price, I'd highly recommend the Dirt Devil Breeze Bagless Upright.
