Commercial U2000RB2L-1 LEED-Compliant Upright Vacuum,Gray/Black, 9.25"D x 47.75"H x 12.5"W

Nothing fancy here. Its an Oreck upright vacuum cleaner built to last. We have had an Oreck upright vacuum cleaner still going strong after 15 years. Using the old one in a guest house after the fancy Dirt Devil died and needed another for the main house. It works great on our stained concrete floors and area rugs. Easy to maneuver and light weight to carry around. Gets in, under and around the furniture with ease. Almost moves itself forward with the roller brush action. Nice long cord and very powerful - sucks up dirt, dog hair, cat hair and even the grand babies crumbles with ease. Get the best tool you can afford and for an upright vacuum that's an Oreck. Highly recommended over the fancier brands that are 2-3X the price of an Oreck.

This Oreck is as good as, if not better than the Oreck model I purchased about a dozen years ago. That thing ran like a charm and did a great job, until the housing broke on a corner, from being rammed into too many things too many times. I bought this model because it is so much like the one I had, is commercial grade, and because I found it at such a low price! When I received it I tried it right away. My wife's"gold standard" for evaluating this Oreck is an old Kenmore "dead pig on a rope" cannister model that she loves. The beater bar attachment for that does a fairly impressive job of lifting and refreshing the pile of our carpet. I'm happy to say that this new Oreck does as well or better at that task. My wife volunteered the comment that it did do a good job in our deepest pile carpet, and yesterday she said she thought this Oreck is lighter weight than the previous one. She's been using this new Oreck as the go-to machine. Now she only uses the old cannister vacuum when she needs to vacuum furniture, etc. I look forward to using this Oreck commercial model for years to come, just as I did with the first Oreck, maybe longer. I like everything about it. It would have been nice to have a light on this model, but I knew it didn't, so that's okay.

The vacuum was as described. Was a great price and works great. Cord is long enough to get from room to room and does not get tangled up. Powerful suction, good maneuverability, light weight and easy to use.

Do not buy this vacuum if you have: people that live in your house, wear shoes, go outside, have pets, move around, open windows, or live in an area where there is nature. This vacuum is horrible. It just pushes the dirt around in front of it and/or blows it out behind it. I've had this vacuum for 5 months now and I vacuum a LOT, infact I vacuum daily which is why I bought this brand. Since Orek is a well known commercial brand I thought it would hold up to regular use on a variety of surfaces as advertised. This review is an update to my initial review which is still below. Fact is, I tried to like this vacuum and then I tried to just get used to it and deal with it, but I can't and I am going to replace it. Everything about it is awful....super stiff cord that does not move and is not easy to work around. It weighs more than the vacuum which tips over all the time if you walk away from it, it is horribly loud and not just decible wise, it is high pitched, it doesn't track straight, it is hard to manuver, it doesn't have rear wheels so you will have to carry it everywhere, no front handle, so forget doing stairs. It is awful on carpets or any kind (I have them all) and horrible on wood or other smooth floors. You will save money on bags......because it doesn't pick up anything it will take a while for the bags to fill up. This vacuum is utter garbage. Original Review: This vacuum is not as good as my Hoover Platinum, which unfortuantely they don't make anymore and I've run out of spare parts. On the Orick, the cord is a good length (same as the Hoover) but this cord is heavier than the vacuum and so stiff. If you move the cord, and you aren't holding onto the vacuum, it will fall/flip. The stiff cord is a pain to handle as you move throught the house. This vacuum is not good on standard carpets and it is only 'okay' on bare flooring (wood or LVT). It is great at vacumming my bed, which I use the low setting for. I have little dog that sleeps on the bed, so my comforter gets vacuumed every day. This is actually the only thing that the low setting is good for. The overall suction is pretty poor...it wont suck up dirt from shoes or popcorn kernals on my kitchen floor (it's weird, I know, but was no issue for the Hoover). Also, this vacuum doesn't track/roll straight. The wheeles do not track straight and that makes it hard to manuver. The only thing about this vacuum that is nice is that it is light weight.....but then you have to deal with the cord that outweighs it. I've had this vacuum and use it daily for about three to four months now and unfortunately I'm stuck with it....but I do hate it. Unfortunately, bagged uprights without all the attachements are getting very hard to find. (Damn you, Hoover! Bring back the Platinum!!!) FYI-I'm vacuuming a two story house of approximately 2000 sq ft and have a husband who never takes his boots off, grand kids and two dogs.

IT's the best hand down. Using it for commercial or residential you can't be Oreck. Great warranty and customer service.

Very happy with my experience. Received what I ordered at a good price

We bought this vacuum for our daycare didn't last 4 months. We thought it was commercial rated then they could last for our daycare just pretty much vacuuming carpets. I called the service department and they were not helpful at all and I'm still trying to get my refund back or they can fix the vacuum stay away from this product doesn't last
