Lots of power in a compact unit

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was looking for a bagless canister vacuum for around $100.
All the units I came across were in the $250-$500 range!
Then I came across the Eureka unit for $99 at Best Buy.
It was exactly what I was looking for; a lightweight, bagless, canister vacuum.
I'm surprised at how much suction power it has, and it's relatively quiet, too.
Like all bagless vacuums, it is a bit messy when emptying.
My only complaint, although minor, is the wheels tend to drag due to their design. They don't roll on axles, but are more like round hoops that are pressed on to a big spindle.
I'll try some silicone spray on it to loosen it up a bit.
What's great about it: light weight, great suction power
What's not so great: wheels tend to drag and not turn freely
I would recommend this to a friend!

Dell Inspiron Desktop: With its generous 1TB hard drive, this desktop provides plenty of space to house your growing movie and music collection and important documents. Plus, you can quickly and easily connect to the Web with built-in wireless networking.
 

Speaker compatability

Will Dell multimedia speakers Model A225 work with this computer?
It will take any computer speaker that uses a standard mini jack setup.
I'm running an Altec Lansing system with two satellite speakers and a subwoofer, and it sounds great.

will this be back in stock?

It is back in stock, but not at the blowout prices that Best Buy listed it at before Black Friday.
It currently seems to go on sale for around $499.

This RCA RCRPS02GR universal remote can control up to 2 devices simultaneously and features a backlit keypad for simple visibility in dimly lit conditions. Oversize keys enable easy identification.
 

does it work with a roku hdmi streaming stick?

I've replaced my Roku 2 XS remote completely.
It should work on your Roku stick, too.

I'm looking for a replacement for my RC246 remote.

They no longer make this remote and the universal remotes (prob not rca) i've tried don't program to this tv...our cable service remote couldn't even connect to this tv. Our volume button no longer works so would like a remote so we don't need to get up & down all the time.

I saw on one website that the RMC12353 RCA remote will work?
Check Logitech's website for device compatibility.
They have over 200,000 devices, and if you're lucky, your's may be one of them.

Will this remote control a Tivo unit?

I have a digital TV which primarily uses Tivo. I also have a sound system, a Roku, and a DVD player. So I use 5 remotes. I use the TV remote to switch inputs, the sound system to turn it off and on and control volume, the Roku when watching streaming stations, and the DVD when watching a DVD. Can one control all of these?
Believe it or not, you can program the Smart Control to press one button, to do all that.
Because the Logitech inventory of devices gives you the discrete codes for your devices, it eliminates having to setup macros and unnecessary steps to be programmed in.
I have five activities set up on my Smart Control remote.
When I press one activity button, I can turn on my TV, switch inputs, turn on my soundbar, and switch inputs on my preamp.
Pressing another activity button will shut off the TV and soundbar, switch the inputs on my preamp, and activate my CD player.
I love this thing!

Can this be used for a smart TV?

I have a Vizio Smart TV. Want to be able to click on a button that takes me to the channels that I'd like to stream.
Yes it can.
I have my 70" Sharp LED TV setup two ways.
I have macros programmed into the remote for my top five favorite channels.
The smartphone app is even better.
When I start the Harmony software on my phone, it pulls up as many favorites as I want, with the logo for each station.
Touching the logos instantly switches to that station.

Will this program a dvd/vcr combo?

Yes, it can do even more.
As long as your devices have a remote, you can get the Smart Control to work with it.

can this remote be used for roku as well as other usual remote functions?

I replaced my Roku 2 XS remote completely.
I didn't have to do anything, as the Roku was in Logitech's inventory of available devices.

Can this be programed to work with a 3 year old Sceptre X40 LCD HDTV?

Even if it can't, you can manually learn the buttons that you use most frequently into the Smart Remote.

Does this remote have a master key to turn off tv & cable box at the same time?

There is a master off switch which you press when you're done, and it shuts off all the devices in the activity you were in.
As long as the cable box has an on/off power button than can be remote controlled, it will work.
