EUREKA 3670G Bagged Canister Cleaner, Vacuuming and Blowing Away Dust And Debris

Very light, great suction, long hose and tube. The lack of a hepa filter is no big deal for me. But it may be for some. I think a hepa attachment is available. This is an amazingly easy to use, effective, inexpensive vacuum. I have 3 cats and they shed. This baby makes short work of cat hair. My only niggle is I wish there was an attachment that was hand size and had hard plastic protrusion about 1/2 inch long all around so it could get close to a flexible surface without getting stuck due to the incredibly strong suction. It also makes for a great car vacuum with the crevice tool. This is an awesome deal.

I believe this is the most functional and flexible home vacuum that money can buy in the US. I've had one for 11 years. It still works like new on our wood floors, tile, medium-pile wool carpets, upholstered chairs, and fur-matted cat cushions. But I wanted a dedicated vacuum for the workshop, so I exhaustively researched new home vacuums at all prices...and still ended up buying this one again. All home vacuums sold in the US max out ~12 amps due to electrical safety constraints, so they all max out at 130-150 cfm airflow. Look at the manufacturer specs. A $600 Miele vacuum gives you the same performance as this $60 unit. What makes this 12-amp unit better than all the rest, is its super-light weight. The canister is less than 8 pounds, including cord & attachments. You can carry it in one hand while you vacuum, or you can put it on a shoulder strap. This makes it super easy and fast to move around furniture, walls, stairs, carseats, etc. The basic MM design has been the same for over 15 years. Eureka sells it under different brands, with two different motors (10A vs 12A), and various different attachments in the box. But all the parts are interchangeable across models. Hundreds of stores sell the parts. Bags cost less than $1 each online, less than $2 each in the local hardware store. Any standard 1.25" ID attachment works. I ordered a soft-bristle (horsehair) duster for shelves & electronics, and a half-width (5") nozzle for the stairs, from Amazon, for just $5 each. If you need to clean cobwebs from a 16-18 foot ceiling, I think the extra extension wands also run about $5. OK, the downsides: -- The 12 amp motor currently comes in yellow or purple only. I prefer red, but the red model (Sanitaire SC3683A) is 10 amps. -- It is louder than some of the super-expensive models. Though frankly all vacuum cleaners are noisy...and if you can vacuum your home 2x faster, the noise lasts only half as long. :) -- It looks and feels cheap. But this does not affect performance, usability, or durability. The only maintenance I've done on my 11-year old model was to add a few drops of oil to the motor shaft, about 4 years ago. After that it ran cooler and quieter. I know I'm gushing, but I've owned so many poorly-designed, failure-prone consumer products over the years, that I love to find a perfectly functional, durable product. And even better when it's super cheap. Nice one, Eureka. Hope this helps.

So two things I want to say. First, is that this is a first day/usage review. Second, if you buy this product and are disappointed with the performance, bang it around a little, check your connections, reset your bag etc... Okay, so I read the reviews, read some positives, negatives etc... I own a Kirby which I will not admit to how much I paid for it but it is a FANTASTIC machine. There are a few drawbacks however. It is HEAVY, it is bulky and in order to switch tools you must remove parts and attach the parts that you need. So, when there is a job that is too big for the dust buster and too small for the Kirby we still end up pulling out the Kirby. Now, we have mostly hardwood floors and area rugs. We also have two cats and a dog. The cats tend to drag a lot of litter out of the box with them because... well because they are ghetto ass cats I guess. Anyway, this means vacuuming around their box EVERYDAY. This is too big of a job for the dust buster so everyday I have been yanking out the big Kirby and I just got a bit tired of it. So, I looked for a small, corded canister vacuum cleaner that I could use just around the litter boxes behind the bar and out to the living room. So, after searching for a cheap vacuum with good suction that either had a HEPA filter or could have one added, I ended up ordering this thing. I got it today, immediately hooked it up, flipped it on and was less than amazed. Yeah, it picked up the litter and other things from the floor but not like I expected. Was it a keeper? Yeah, because it did what I wanted it to do but I was hardly impressed and really thought of it as a high two or low three so it got a three. Anyway, while dragging this thing around (it is REALLY lite) the machine bumped into one of my walls, the sound from the machine changed and the head stuck to the floor. HOLY CRAP!!! By that time I was on an area rug and when I lifted the head off of the rug, the rug came with it. I went ahead and vacuumed over where I had already vacuumed and this thing was pulling litter out of the corners and edges. NICE!! Before I switched it off I placed the head flat on the hardwood floor and lifted it. It actually took force to lift it off of floor. Now, some might say that is what it is supposed to do but for a cleaner that is this light and this inexpensive to have that kind of suction suction.... well... I think I got the bargain. I will admit that it doesn't seem to be the most sturdily made cleaner but it is meant to be dragged around the house, not withstand an ultimate fighter cage match. If it holds up and does not breakdown than my review ends here. If it does, there will be more to read. below.

Great little vac! We don’t have a lot of carpet so I mainly got this for wood floors and a couple area rugs. Works great. Suction was surprisingly strong for such a little vac. Having the attachments right on the vacuum is nice and the power cord wraps up perfectly out of the way. The ONLY thing that disappointed me was the plastic hoses do not have a latch to secure them so they came off several times while I was just going over the floor lightly. I have some velcro with adhesive backing on it so I’m going to use that to keep the hoses secured and when I want to remove them, it will be easy. The vacuum is very light too and even with a very painful back and shoulders, the lightweight of this vacuum made it easy to move around. Very light to push around too. If you have pain or other mobility issues and heavy vacuum are problematic, this would be a good vacuum for you (just get someone to secure the hard plastic hoses for you). We have a very small broom closet but this vac is so small it can even fit in there! We have a cordless vacuum as well that I will keep using down in the entrance instead of moving the vacuum down a split level (not that it would be difficult to carry anything but we the cordless so it’s just easier) but I’m getting tired of not finishing the vacuuming because the thing loses the charge or suction. Told myself I was not going to soend an arm and leg on a vac and it wohld be corded so I can do a good job without worrying the charge won’t last long enough. Overall, I really like this vac but the hoses just being stuck into one another is where I took the star away. I’m sure Eureka could have threaded the hoses so they screw into one another and added a few cents to the price. I recommend if you’re ok with the minor issues. For the price (I paid $60), I think it’s a steal. Edit: to keep the hoses together and not pulling apart, I used some strips of adhesive-backed velcro and put the fluffy side around each hose end and secured them together with small pieces of the the hook side of the velcro. Keeps it all together and doesn’t prevent them from being taken apart whenever I wanted the hose shorter. All sorted. Now I’m really pleased with my purchase! Edit: I just noticed a couple reviews regarding the inability to change the suction of this vacuum. This is incorrect. It is very easy to change the suction from full to lowest. Near rhe handle there is a yellow band, as it appear to wrap around the hose. You simply turn this yellow band and it exposes an opening in the hose. Open it fully to lower the suction, close it for the most powerful suction. I didn’t notice this myself until a few days ago (I’ve had this vacuum for about 3 weeks now). We’re used to dials and more techy sort of things so this can easily be overlooked. But it works perfectly. This vacs suction is so is strong, I typically have to open this yellow band a little or the vacuum head literally sticks to the floor. Great for hard floors but super hard to use on carpet. Just give this band a twist and it will make vacuuming carpet a breeze.

I bought this for the basement and the ease of doing a quick vacuum with the convenience of not having to bring the other vacuum up and down the stairs. I am not disappointed! Strong suction (actually quite impressive), super light, moves and rolls with ease, nice long cord and long hose. The only thing I sense might be an issue is when vacuuming thicker area rugs, I just get a feeling that the vacuum head has the potential to break from pushing down too hard on thicker rug piles. What I mean is, with thinner rug piles, the vacuum head glides over easy and the suction is good but when I vacuum this one rug that is a bit thicker, the vacuum is not quite as strong and by reflex I push down harder and it feels like continuously doing this would break the vacuum head. So, yes, obviously I back off and just let the vacuum head glide over the rug but because the suction isn't as strong in this particular thicker rug, I am having to go over the area a couple of times. I guess what I'm trying to say is if you have medium to thick rugs, I'm not sure this vacuum is for you. But! If you have thin or low pile rugs or just flooring then do not hesitate to purchase this vacuum. You will not be disappointed.

This product is perfect for what I bought it for. For the house at large we have a very good Kenmore vacuum from Sears. That vacuum is perfect for heavy duty cleaning on carpets and whole home vacuuming. I bought this vacuum to make small jobs easier and to take to the office (where there is no vacuum) and for using in the vehicles. I can now see myself using this for hard to reach cobwebs and underneath heavy furniture that I don’t feel like moving each time I vacuum. The suction really is amazing. I am extremely happy with the suction power. It is also very lightweight which means I don’t mind taking it with me to the office. It has enough extension on the attachable hoses to be very useful in hard to reach corners for cobwebs. An automatic retractable power cord would be great, but it’s easy enough to wind the cord up and the cord is nice and long. For the price of the vacuum, it’s not worth being upset about. As well, it is just so nice and light that it is worth forgetting about the inconvenience of having to wind up a cord. This would be a very useful vacuum for anyone living in a small apartment without much carpeting, especially if you are on a budget or cannot handle a heavy vacuum. I live in a house but I think this is a great second vacuum for jobs that I don’t want to lug around a heavier vacuum for. Also great for getting into hard to reach spots.

I recently purchased this vacuum on December 14, 2024, for $89.99 (plus taxes, totaling $101.69), and I couldn't be happier with my choice. I use it to clean our hardwood floors I was tired of using Swiffers, this does a much better job. Here are the features I like: 1. Affordable Price: Excellent value for the cost. 2. Lightweight and Portable: Easy to move around and carry. 3. Long 20-Foot Cord: Provides ample reach without constantly switching outlets. 4. Bagged Design: No hassle of cleaning a canister. 5. Powerful Suction: Impressive performance for a compact vacuum. 6. Compact Size: Easy to store in small spaces. 7. Useful Add-On Tools: Includes a brush and crevice tool for versatile cleaning. The only downside I've noticed is the plastic on/off switch, which seems flimsy and might not last long. Despite this, I would definitely buy this vacuum again and highly recommend it to friends and family.

I have been using this vacuum for a few years and am finally writing a review. Wanted something portable and lightweight for the stairs, etc., which this is. The suction is very satisfactory and the unit is still working well, yay! Those are the good points. Not so good are the noise of the motor and the poor quality of the attachment tools. This vacuum is a screamer! Doe it really have to be so loud??? I do not use the extension wands as they are flimsy, so I have to bend low to the floor to vacuum. The attachment tools are completely unacceptable. Luckily, I have nice attachment tools from another (broken/discarded) vacuum cleaner that fit. If not for those tools, I would have returned the vacuum cleaner after purchase. There is no place to wrap the cord, it has to be coiled and tucked under the handle. Are we not all fed up with poor quality, lazy design??? Yikes. But, at least the motor and suction are working, so I will give it a star more than maybe it deserves.
