after research consumer report , I buy the above captioned vacuum cleaner instead of buy another Hoover to replace my twenty-one year old machine . the Eureka come without its tool or wand . the yellow switch that be suppose to toggle between floor and carpet just flop , unattached to anything . the vacuum do a good job on the carpet , but I only have one carpeted room . it do not pick up anything from the bare floor , include Cherrios , rug fuzz which it throw off the carpet onto the floor , kitty litter or dust . and , yes , I do switch the indicator -lrb- not the yellow switch -rrb- from carpet to floor as the Eureka customer service rep. ask I . it be heavy -- on my scale , 23 pound , without the box . if I still have say box , I would return it this minute . I have not be able to try the hose attachment since the promise wand and tool have not arrive . I would not recommend this product to anyone .
