Solid Basic Vacuum Good But Not Great
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: shortsquared
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The vacuum does the basics well, but doesn't stand out.
Pros
+ large cannister capacity
+ powerful suction because corded, but not the most powerful of all corded vacuums
+ easy to maneuver/turn with 180 degree articulation between upright body and floor roller
+ large cannister capacity
+ powerful suction because corded, but not the most powerful of all corded vacuums
+ easy to maneuver/turn with 180 degree articulation between upright body and floor roller
Cons
- cannot vacuum in lower clearance areas like under chairs which means it definitely cannot vacuum under coffee tables
- heavy for what it is
- hose tension is too much. it wants to snap back after very little hose stretch so my wrist gets tired fighting to stretch the hose and maneuver the attachment
- the 4" wide Turbo brush attachment doesn't seem powered. It seems to only turn using the air movement into the hose so it stops turning while vacuuming the pet bed
- hose clips to the main body but seems more like an afterthought (photo attached)
- Lift-off feature sounds good, but doesn't come through in its execution. Most of the weight is in the lift-off body. If you set down the lift-off body, it will tip with minimal hose extension so you must hold it in your off hand the entire time. That limits the scenarios where the lift-off functionality is actually useful compared to just detaching the wand. Mostly only practical for stairs. Even then, it's more that it makes stairs less of a pain for a corded vacuum; still not the best experience compared to a cordless stick vacuum. Also--after removing the lift-off body from the roller base, the wand cannot attach to the roller base directly so there's no workaround to the canister being too bulky to reach under chairs.

Sweep no more
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: Hannah
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum works incredibly well on hard wood and laminate floors. I was skeptical at first but it has replaced sweeping in my house. It’s so easy to push and navigate. It effortlessly turns and the capacity is very large. I like the option of being able to use it on carpet as well. The attachments are very handy and are great for stairs. I vacuum daily because of a toddler and 2 big shedding dogs and this works so well. Pup approved! She loves playing with it.

Super convenient and powerful
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: Sarahesc
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum is pretty much perfect. I love that I can do both hard floors and carpet. Ome of my main issues with my previous vacuum was all the kickback of dirt on hard floors. With this vacuums setting for hard floors, the brush does not spin so there's no kickback. It is very powerful and picks up quickly and efficiently. It even pulls dirt from underneath areas that the vacuum can't reach like the edge of the dresser or stove. I was also blown away at how good it made my carpets look. It made them look so plush and brand new again. I actually dont think they looked this good when they were new. The attachments are also extremely powerful. I've never had a vacuum that could pick up cat hair completely, but this one does. The vacuum is fairly quiet. The turbo brush is insanely loud, but it's OK because it gets the job done very well. I love that the vacuum detaches and can be carried easily upstairs or reach high areas. The one complaint I have is that it is pretty top heavy which made my hand ache quite a lot, but after using it a few times that went away and I got used to it. Other than that, it's amazing and perfect for households that have a combination of hard floors and carpet. Super pleased!!

Great vacuum
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: Fluffy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great vacuum. It has great power and I feel as if it is relatively quiet for how much power it has. I have only used it on soft surfaces, but the thickness has varied. One of my favorite features is the ability to change the amount of suction the vacuum has. It is easily accessible while using the vacuum. It’s nice to be able to change it when I go from the carpet to rugs, such as the ones in the bathrooms.
There are a couple things that detract from giving 5 stars though, and this is just my personal preference. The wand detaches easily, but I feel as though the reach isn’t that great. It may get looser over time, but right now the hose it is quite tight and just pulls the vacuum when reaching with it. The next thing is the debris tank seems small. The max line doesn’t allow for much debris. I have a large area to vacuum, but had to empty twice to be able to finish.
Overall, great vacuum and I prefer it over my previous one.

Amazing
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: Disn3ym0m91
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As soon as I opened the CleanView® Max Lift-Off I instantly knew this was going to be my new go to. Not only is the design modern, sleek and aesthetically pleasing but is super easy to use. We have a mixture of laminate and carpet in our home and the CleanView® Max Lift-Off works on both! My husband was just as excited about the CleanView® Max Lift-Off as I was. His was pleasantly surprised by the button to lock the bristles up or down. We also enjoyed how it can become a hand vacuum. The only caveat to that was if you’re going to be carrying it around for an extended period of time, it may become a bit heavy. The CleanView® Max Lift-Off moves around with ease and glides over both carpet and laminate not missing a single crumb. With my old vacuum, I would have to go over some spots on my carpet multiple times, especially with having two toddlers and a pup. The CleanView® Max Lift-Off also got all the dog hair! This vacuum has saved so me so much time. It also comes with attachments which helped me get all the crumbs from between my couch cushions from when the kids have snuck snacks into the living room. I love the versatility of this vacuum and how it makes our busy, hectic, toddler/pup having lives easier. I highly recommend!

Incredible Vacuum Easy to Use and Super Effective
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: Drea1386
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I couldn't be happier with this vacuum! Right out of the box, it was a breeze to assemble. The instructions were clear and straightforward, which made setup quick and frustration-free.
One of my favorite features is the lift-off detach function. It’s a game changer! It makes cleaning those hard-to-reach spots (like high shelves or ceiling corners) so much easier without having to carry the whole vacuum around. The built-in storage for all the attachments is another big plus—everything stays organized and right where you need it.
Performance-wise, this vacuum delivers a noticeably deeper clean on our carpets compared to other models we’ve used. It also has different settings for plush carpet and hard floors, which is perfect for our home since we have a mix of both.
Overall, this vacuum combines convenience, power, and smart design. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and versatile cleaning tool!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Holds up to 4 kids
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: elocjay
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are a household with four kids, so we are always looking for new ways to make cleaning easier (which often involve the word “pet” - you’d be surprised how similar the messes can be). Overall, this vacuum has worked well for us and I would recommend it! We have used it on our carpet, laminate flooring, and even in our car so far and it has done well on all three surfaces, picking up everything from tiny crumbs to whole pieces of cereal.
Pros:
Good suction power
Versatile attachments
Easy to empty
Can switch the roller on and off as needed
Handles a lot of different messes
Nice overall look and design
Not too heavy or wide
Liftaway feature for tight spaces (always a favorite of mine)

Cons (really only minor nitpicks):
I wish the switch to turn the roller on and off were closer to the handle to change back and forth more easily with one hand

I can’t wait to see how this one holds up! Seems nice and sturdy and I’m overall happy with it.

Great little vacuum
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: Kels23
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum is super great! Very light weight and easy to carry around which I appreciated. The hose attachments are awesome and worked amazing on my stairs that had not been cleaned in a while and are under heavy kid traffic. The vacuum also worked great on my area rug. Assembling it was surprisingly simple and straight forward. The design is also nice looking. The one thing that didn’t seem to work great was vacuuming the hard floor because it would just push the larger crumbs or pieces around but maybe it would work with a less messy floor. Also it is quite loud, but that didn’t bother me personally.
I would recommend this to a friend!
