Customer Review: Awesome!!!! Pets, Children and Allergies
This is the best vacuum I have ever owned. The 4870GZ model is the best vacuum for the price. I got it with two specials that were going on at Amazon for only $110. It is under $300 and very good with consumer reports.

This is a great vacuum for any price if you have pets, allergies or children. I have all three. Two children, two large dogs and allergies. I sucks up everything. My model had the power paw which I have come to love.

A vacuum with a bag is the only way to go for someone with allergies. I had a bagless vac, but couldn’ empty it because I couldn’t breath when exposed to all of the dust. I takes to long anyway to empty and clean. I like just throwing away the bag.

Amazon was really great. I originally got the wrong model. This is because the first one I received was a rebuilt older model, but in the box of the model I ordered. Just human error. Amazon had UPS pick it up at my door the next day and the day after that I received the correct one. Excellent on timing.

I have read reviews where people have reported it is too heavy. I am only 5 feet 2 inches and can carry it. It is a little heavier than other vacs but that is because it works so well. If you want a lighter vac it isn’t going to clean as well. I don’t really excersise but am use to picking up children. Older folks may have a probelm though.

Also I have read that people have had problems lowering the handle. It is important to know that the button you step on does not go back towards you. It goes to the left. So when you step on it, do not push down towards yourself (assuming you are standing behind it), push out to the left.

Another observation of mine has been that in order to change back and forth between bare floor and carpet you need to have the handle down. The switch is stiff, so don’t be afraid to use a little pressure until it clicks into place.

One more thing. It feels like the vacuum is self propelled. I think this is because the roller goes so fast. You can’t even tell from looking that it is moving. It just takes off when you start. It is harder to pull back. This just further proves how well it is cleaning.
