unhappywithproduct says "Nothing but probs with my Intuition Vac. Never buy Sears again. " about Kenmore Intuition Vacuum

unhappywithproduct — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 16:22:21 GMT

I bought a Sears Intuition Vacuum 3 months ago. It was expense and has been nothing but a headache ever since. No matter what we do the "check bag" light continues to stay on. It doesn't pick up anything. I am so frustrated I could "scream". There aren't really many reasons for me to shop at Sears much anymore. I live in California and there are many better places to shop for bargains. I thought that I could trust the Sears name where a vacuum cleaner is concerned. I am very dissapointed. I won't be returning to Sears to shop again. The quality just isn't there anymore. Very sad!

katem03885 says "Motor broke after 2 years!" about Kenmore Intuition Vacuum

katem03885 — Mon, 17 Jan 2011 18:00:42 GMT

I paid the extra amount for this vaccuum cleaner two years ago because it got good ratings in **************** and elsewhere. I typically do well when making major purchases this way but not in this case. After light use, the motor failed. To me this is unacceptable for something that cost so much. It worked well until it broke. Sears said it only has a 1 year limited warranty on the motor. We won't buy another Kenmore after this experience.

bndclan says "The Intuition is a great vacuum cleaner- when it works." about Kenmore Intuition Vacuum

We were looking for a canister cleaner with enough power to effectively clean a large home with children and pets. We purchased the Intuition, along with the extended warranty, with the intent of owning a powerful and reliable vacuum that we would have for the long-term. The Intuition's cleaning performance is impressive, however, within the first month of purchase, the Release Handle for the Lift-Off brush broke and we returned it for service. Last week, the Pet PowerMate was returned for service due to a connection or motor failure. I am now experiencing a problem with the electrical connection to the PowerMate. The Intuition is an excellent cleaner, but the attractive extra features are unreliable. We expected better quality for the price. If you are purchasing this vacuum, purchase the extended warranty.

johnvlnka says "You won't make a mistake buying this unit." about Kenmore Intuition Vacuum

johnvlnka — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 02:30:34 GMT

This Vacuum blows away it's predecessors with the suction derived from the bag's suspended retaining structure that lets the suction on the bag come from all sides rather than just from the back side as before. The unit maintains this power until the bag is filled. This is our third Kenmore and it is the best yet. It has a very handy LED light at the end of the aluminum extension wand that really comes in handy in tight dimmly lit areas. The bare floor attachment pops right out of the main carpet head with the simple pushing of a lever and back just as quick. It was rated Number 1 by **************** and I can see why. Originally thought we might go with the top of the line Electrolux model but it's dust bag was half the size. When the Intuition went on sale, we jumped on it and haven't looked back since. We got the unit with a bit more electric cord. Like it's predecessors, it has a built in attachment storage and a neat dirt sensor that shows you when it's picking up a lot of dirt &...

BlueTracker says "Kenmore Intuition Vacuum - Construction Quality Could be Better" about Kenmore Intuition Vacuum

BlueTracker — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 19:37:19 GMT

The intution performs well and has a lot of features that make it easy to use...however within the first 6 months of purchase the quick release for the Power Mate power head broke. The quality of the plastic housing and latches for the is middle-of-the-road for durability. Otherwise, it's an acceptable unit.

paulietm says "great investment for the money" about Kenmore Intuition Vacuum

paulietm — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 16:47:24 GMT

This is the best vacuum I have ever owned. I didn't know if it would be worth it to spend the money on the top of the line vacuum, but was sick dealing with appliance that just didn't work or last. It made a real difference. The vacuum is quiet, efficient, good power.

I even like the dirt detector, I thought it was little much, but it gives me a better idea of when to stop cleaning in a certain area. Previous vacuums i have had tended to throw the dirt around when using the beater bar. This does not. I like the fact that you just have to press a foot pedal to disenage the beater bar and use the bare floor brush.

My only complaint would be the design of the bare floor attachment. I wish it was a little better shaped for getting into ticht places and cleaing base boards, but all you have to do is change to another attachment and the problem is solved

Pergola says "Intuition is intense" about Kenmore Intuition Vacuum

Pergola — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 15:24:43 GMT

The Intuition vacuum's cleaning power is definitely intense! I have two cats and a husband who seems to collect pieces of everything and deposit it on the floor and the furniture. The Intuition does a terrific job in half the time especially when using the pet power brush tool on the furniture. One of the best time-saving features is the dirt sensor; you're not going over and over the same spot trying to make sure you get everything. If it's green, it's clean!

I did a lot of research online before buying a vacuum. The Intuition was ranked number one for homes with bare floors, pets, and allergies. I haven't had it long enough to notice a difference in the latter, but the ranking is dead on for bare floors and pets.

Spending that much money on a vacuum is not something I wanted to do, but I am very glad I did. The wallet pain was eased a bit by purchasing an extended warranty so I know I can get a replacement if something happens to it. I think it cost around $85 for 3 years.

You really...

mars09 says "Another super Kenmore Vacuum cleaner!" about Kenmore Intuition Vacuum

mars09 — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 04:02:36 GMT

I recently purchased the Kenmore Intution, after owning Kenmore canister vacs my whole adult life. This one is as good as ever and has so many new features to make cleaning simpler and easier than before. It has the usual on board attachments, a handy conversion for hard floors (love that!), a retractable cord and the bags are so easy to change. I have a long haired dog that sheads a lot and tracks in dirt, but this vac cleans up on both carpeted and hard floor surfaces. My old Kenmore vacs have held up so well that they end up in the garage, bring used to clean cars after I buy a new one for the house. Consumers Reports and I agree - Kenmore Canister vacs rule!...

ozark says "Love the Vaccuum hate the price" about Kenmore Intuition Vacuum

ozark — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 18:15:59 GMT

I just bought this Vaccuum less than a month ago..it is a Kenmore Intution from Sears and well I love the Vaccuum but I really didn't like the price tag. It is very easy to use...I like canisters though...those of you who like uprights might not like the canister. My 5 year old loves to use it as well. I like that the power runs down to the actual cleaner. My mom has a vaccuum that you use a battery to charge it for extra sucking power, the battery doesn't work well on hers. I like this idea much better. It has great sucking power and works well on carpet and hardwood, as well as tile....

ozark says "Works great" about Kenmore Intuition Vacuum

ozark — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 17:37:58 GMT

I've had this less than a month but so far works great...I wish it didn't cost as much as it did though. We had a cheap bissel before this and it had all kinds of problems and it didn't work as well....
