This popular pick was named “best cheap upright vacuum” in Granero’s roundup of the best budget vacuums. She says it “offers power and agility, plus some very hard-working accessories, for just over one Benjamin.” (It’s even less now — currently a record low, in fact.)
She adds, “This well-rounded warrior aced both my ‘carpet course’ and ‘kitchen sink’ tests, sucking up every item in its path right up to the edges of furniture and cabinets. It also picked up most of the fur in my pet-hair test, with just a few rogue strands caught in a second pass.
“The back foot pedals and swivel steering make maneuvering a breeze, while adjustable cleaner head settings let you optimize cleaning for various floor types and carpet thicknesses.
“Where the CleanView Swivel really stands out, however, is with its suite of attachments — a 2-in-1 dusting brush, a crevice tool and, setting it apart from most competitors, a TurboEraser tool for tackling embedded hair and pet fur.”
