Eureka Vacuum - Eureka Capture Plus Reviews

My husband and I bought a new vacuum at the beginning of 2009. We had done some research but not a lot since our vacuum bit the dust on short notice. We settled on the Eureka Capture Upright Vacuum with Pet Hair Brush. We had also looked at some Dyson vacuums, which we had heard a lot of great things about but due to the cost we settled on a cheaper vacuum. This vacuum had a great suction power, which we both loved. However, it got clogged every time we used it! There were times when we would vacuum and not be able to get it unclogged without having to unscrew the hose from the handle and literally...

OK -- I've read the reviews on this vac and agree it is a bit heavy, and OK maybe a bit louder than some. BUT when others mention things like 'I have to clean the foam filters too often' isn't that a sign it is working and working hard to remove the dust from your carpet and your home, and maybe a good problem to have ??

The Eureka Capture + is a cat hair magnet! I have two long haired cats that shed all over my 1920's mohair sofa.

Last year for my Christmas gift, I bought the Eureka Capture Vacuum and have been very happy with the results I get after vacuuming the carpet.  It picks up pet hair very well and sucks up deep down dirt in the carpet.  Only problem with this vacuum is the bristles around the carpet brush are easily damaged.  That means do not accidentally run over anything that will get wrapped around the brush.  Regardless of the condition of the bristles, the vacuum still works very well.
