Eureka Altima Bagless Upright Vacuum - 2961AVZ — 

I love this vacuum. I have a step-son and 3 nieces and 1 nephew that stay in my house quite a bit and also a dog and 3 cats. I try to vacuum 1-2 times a week and everytime I do I am amazed at the dirt this thing picks up. Yes, the yellow filter above the dirt cup clogs occasionally but if you vacuum more often and don't let the hair, dirt, dust, etc build up it will not get clogged. The only thing that I would change about this vacuum is how the hose is connected at the bottom of the vacuum leaving less hose to work with. On the other hand, the power cord is plenty long enough for you to move around the room. I am actually looking for another of the same vacuum because the one I have is about 3 years old and I know that it is not going to be available when I need it whenever this one does go. I have not had a single issue with it in 3 yrs. I would highly reccomend this vacuum!!

We've gone through 2 of these in 4 years. If you have significant hair to pick up, it will clog constantly in about 3 different places. The little stair-cleaning attachment is NOT powered, so once it encounters any resistance, the brush stops. When it is not clogged, and the brush is actually spinning, it does a reasonably good job. Unfortunately, that is not often enough for us to consider recommending this vacuum for anyone with any amount of hair to clean up. It's not like we have tons, just a Pomeranian, and my wife's lovely 3-foot long locks. But it is enough to make us unclog the vacuum at least once every time we clean our 1200 sqft home.
