When I first bought my house ten years ago I bought a kenmore canister vac and it was put through the wringer with 4 boys in the house. The hose had been run over. It got dropped down the stairs more than once. I am terrible about having things serviced regularly and it is still running and still doing...

I should mention in the beginning of this review that I clean houses for a living. I work five days a week, cleaning one house a day. I have only had the canister for about six months. The wand is already not working properly. The divots in the wand are pretty much flattened from the wear and tear of...

I just came home with my new vacuum cleaner and I've already used it.
It feels even lighter than my last Kenmore cleaner and, as usual, does a great job. I'm looking forward to doing all sorts of things with this one. I've always owned Sears vacuum cleaners in my 50 years of marriage - and have given them as gifts to my children.
I have recently become single and this caused me to purchase many new items. My new living space had fresh carpet installed the day after I moved in. I knew this would be a challenge for any vacuum. The carpet was fuzzier than expected and the machine worked well for some time but the red warning light came on in just five minutes of work. It took me some time to figure out the hose was blocked and another hour to clear it. (do they make a tool for this?) Being aware of the potential for clogging I was careful not to over do it and removed fuzz from the bag as I went along. After several cleanings...

I love my kenmore canister vacuum cleaner. I just purchased this after several years of hating an upright cleaner. I use the wand to dust the walls, and remove cob-webs from the corners. Actually, I have used all the attachments, and love the great suction. My carpet has perked back up and looks clean now. This vacuum cleaner was a great purchase and I would recommend it to all my friends and family.
I never thought I'd be the type of woman to get excited over household appliances. That was before I had three rabbits and hair that wouldn't come up from the rug! Enter the Kenmore 25614. After reading reviews, I decided this was what I wanted, and it has lived up to its expectations. It's been able to get the rabbit hair out of the carpet, doesn't clog, and it seems like the bag has a huge capacity. The special furniture attachment has been great for cleaning the couch, which I only used a lint brush for before and took forever. Not anymore! I would recommend this to pretty much everyone.
Although we installed an inhouse vacuum system, we realized that you still need a portable vacuum, so this replaced our aged and worn out Kenmore circa 1980's.
For the money, this vacuum seems well built. I tend now to use it more than the inhouse vacuum system. The attachments all snap under the cover, including the small vacuum head for drapes etc. They are somewhat hard to snap in and out, but not a big problem.
The vacuum has enough suction and the small head has more than enough.
Consumer Reports rated this vacuum very high, and you can certainly pay double or more for an upscale brand if...

This vacuum does a great job of cleaning floors and carpets, but is awfully heavy to lug around! Folks with stairs will not appreciate having to carry it up and down, and wrestle with it while vacuuming the stairs.
When using HEPA cloth bags, this vacuum has very, very low emissions of dust. The cheaper paper bags don't do as good a job of filtering out the tiniest particles, so if you suffer from allergies, it's best to go for the more expensive HEPA bags.
We have owned several Sears Kenmore vacuums before but none have been as light and as easy to use as this one. The light weight head with aluminum telescoping tube has made it easy for my wife, who has shoulder problems, to use as she was unable to use the other vacuums due to their weight. The head actually seems to pull itself forward. All of the accessories are stored in the vacuum canister unit. Since we have only owned this unit for 4 weeks, I cannot rate the durability yet, but the other Kenmores that we have owned have lasted very well. I still use our old canister vacuum when cleaning the...

I've owned my Kenmore Progressive now for almost two years and I've never owned a better, user-friendly vacuum. It is easy on the back, due to it's lightweight features. But don't this light-weight powerhouse steer you wrong: just because it is not a heavy, clunky and awkward upright, you most definitely are getting a better vacuum than any uprights on the market I've ever owned and it is much easier to use for anyone with back problems. Speaking of the back, you do not have to worry about bending (or tripping over a ton of cords) thanks to the telescoping wand that adjusts to the height you...

This vacuum has replaced 2 vacs and a Swiffer that I used to need in order to clean my house. The button on the handle to instantly switch from bare floors to carpet is great. It's powerful, easy to use, and it looks nice. I was never able to vacuum the carpet under my bed with the uprights. Now my whole house is super clean with one vacuum! I love it!
We have found the vac in the consumer digest listed a a good vac for the money. They were right. The service at the Waterbury store pickup was great. Yes, I will do the process again
I have never used a canister vacuum before and boy now I know what I was missing! This vacuum is great. The suction control is terrific and the telescopic wand lets me clean the windows that are out of my reach. The floor to carpet option on the handle is very convenient. I have only had my vacuum for about 3 weeks, so I don't know yet about the durablility factor. So far, so good.
I have dogs, they shed. The bottom line is that I have had Kenmore vacumns forever. The new one I just bought, is the fourth one I had. This one does not suck up the dirt as well as the red one I had. There is a whining/whistle sound at the end of the hose. I do not see any cuts, or anything, but it sounds like air coming into the hose. Maybe the attachment is not tight.
The only reason I'm not rating this vacuum on durability is because I've only had it less than a month. But now I wonder why I didn't retire my little 29-year-old $99 Hoover canister sooner. This is one kick-butt little picker-upper. The wheels on the Turbo attachment make it easy to use, it sucks up dirt like an upright, and the on-off switch on the handle is very handy. My only beefs are: a) that the only small attachment suitable for steps is the little mini-Turbo, which kicks butt but is sometimes like swatting a fly with a nuclear warhead; and b) the HEPA bags are pricey. A small attachment...
