Let's face it. Most vacuums just don't cut it when it comes to really cleaning a home or office. Pesky pet hair embeds deeper in carpet than traditional vacuums go; bits and pieces of tracked-in dirt and debris hunker down under floor trim just out of reach of the latest brush innovations, rendering us to the silliness of handpicking behind that expensive vacuum, filling our pockets with lint, and wondering--who's really the boss? Troubles like these made the folks at Eureka get down and dirty and, ultimately, design the Boss Smart-Vac Upright Vacuum. Offering powerful performance for everyday household cleaning, the Eureka Boss is the solution for people who insist on having a truly clean home. The Boss's Direct Air Control System features an air selector switch that lets you direct all suction either deep into the carpet or to the hose for easy above-the-floor cleaning. The Power Paw brush makes it easy to clean stairs and upholstery, and even claws up embedded pet hair, so Fido can spend more time inside. The motorized brush lets you go from carpet to bare-floor cleaning with the flick of a switch. The Boss Smart-Vac is powered by a beefy, 12-amp motor that provides plenty of suction power for deep-cleaning carpets, and leaves nothing behind on hard floors. Pretty smart, right? Well, here's the really smart part. The Boss Smart-Vac isn't just the best household carpet- and floor-cleaning vacuum on the market; it's also equipped with a unique, sealed, HEPA filtration system that captures 99.97 percent of dust, pollen, allergens, and bacteria. So, vacuuming the house doesn't mean you have to dust afterward, or sneeze while you're doing it. Cleaner carpets and cleaner indoor air at the same time! Plus, the Boss comes loaded with user-friendly features to take the frustration out of vacuuming. A wide 15-inch cleaning path covers a lot of ground quickly before company comes. In addition, the exclusive dust trap system captures debris and dust in three stages. A handy stretch hose extends to five times its original length for reaching around furniture and sucking the cobwebs off the ceiling. And, a 30-foot cord won't leave you coming up short. The bare floor brush is designed to smoothly glide across wood and tile floors while picking up more dust and debris in corners and along baseboards than any other model. One extra Type-R belt and one bonus bag come included. The vacuum cleaner measures 12 by 15 by 44 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty. --Brian Olson

Great vacuum for the price December 1, 2008
I did tons of research before buying this at Best Buy. The only reason I didn't buy it through Amazon was how long it was going to take to be shipped to me at the time. It is a bit heavy, but when you are using it the suction is so strong that it actually pulls itself some! Anyway some people complain about the powerpaw but it works great for me. Sometimes the plastic attachments are a bit difficult to put in their storage areas but I really have to say after six months of usage with kids and pets this vacuum works like a champ. I have had other more expensive models that were no where in the same league as this one. Its a workhorse!
 Dust everywhere! November 29, 2008
I tried to give this vacuum a chance. I used it for four months. I hated it the entire time. It was hard to maneuver and I kept bumping into things. The worst part for me was throwing the trash away. The debris falls from the top into the chamber on the bottom. No matter how careful I was at removing the canister, there was always dust and debris on top of it. As I removed the canister, dust kept falling down onto the machine and me. I have allergies, which is why I bought this machine, and the dust was killing me. I had to wear one of those face masks to help me out. Then I had to wipe down the machine every single time I emptied it, further stirring up dust. Another thing I didn't like was that if you pull the hose from it's nesting place, you can no longer use the bottom part of the vacuum to clean the carpet. On my Dyson, I can use the hose if the vacuum is in the upright position and the bottom part when I pull it back. This is convenient when I vacuum the rug and put the machine upright and use the hose for corners and base boards. I can't do that with this vacuum. If I have attachments on the hose, I can't put the hose back in it's holder so I can either vacuum or use the the hose but not both. I am returning this thing and will continue to drag my Dyson up and down the stairs.
Eureka Boss November 29, 2008
I was not impressed when I started to assemble the vacuum, it seemed a little flimsy, light plastic cover and the filter fell out at first. I was more impressed with the power and suction once I assembled and used it. This is a nice vacuum and does a good job cleaning. I haven't used the attachments yet. I would buy this product again, it does the job and the price is very good. I had a commercial type Hoover prior to this purchase, I am use to good cleaning from a vacuum, this did not disappoint.
 Best vacuum November 26, 2008
I have owned several vacuums,but the Eureka Boss Smart Vac is still the best. This is my second one. The first one I gave to my son when he moved out. I replaced it with a different Eureka, big mistake! It wasn't the same. So, I went back to this model and it's still my favorite. It picks up all the dog hair from my two dogs from both carpet and ceramic tile. The tools are all on board and easy to use. I'll never pick another brand or model again.
Too Heavy November 23, 2008
After reading the great reviews for this vacuum, I purchased it. It was easy to assemble, but using it was not easy. I found is to be quite heavy and cumbersome. As I was using it, the handle position seemed to put a lot of stress on my lower back. The weight of it seems more than that listed in the specs (24 pounds) and the cord seems shorter than 30 feet.. I used it for 10 minutes and had to quit. It has plenty of power and seems to clean well,but was physically difficult for me to use.
