Oreck Commercial XL Vacuum Cleaner, Bagged Upright Vac for Carpets and Hard Floor, Lightweight, Automatic Height Adjust, High-Speed Brush Roll, Powerful Vacuum Cleaners for Commercial Use

Definitely would recommend this vacuum. I’ve had it for a few days now coming from a Dyson ball animal three and this thing has way better suction power because it is a commercial upright. It is a bit loud, but that is common for commercial vacuums because they’re designed for commercial settings. I do love the fact that it takes bags. I don’t have to sit here and wash filters just simply change a bag, but I do recommend if you are an allergy suffer to also order their hyper allergenic bags because it will come with just a standard paper bag. Also love the fact if I have to replace a belt or brush roll, I could just simply order a belt or brush roll. I don’t have to spend hundreds of dollars like Dyson to replace the entire motorhead. It’s very lightweight love the extra long cord. It comes with. It does get tangled up but once you get that untangled. You have a plug it in and forget it. Also, I do love how they kept the traditional design and did not steer away from the original. Oreck look so if you are looking for a reliable vacuum, that is lightweight and that will get your carpets clean I recommend this one and if you do have high traffic areas this vacuum will get it clean as well as ref fluff those areas it’s not gonna be 100% fluffed, but you’ll see some fluff in action.

Light weight about 9 lbs, Picks up everything including glitter. easy to change bags. Space saver for storage, ridged construction. Its only 12 inches wide for vacuuming, the wheels are tight to the base that is great for vacuuming but you need to lift it to transport it to vacuuming location. Over all the vacuums functions great on both carpet and tiles surfaces. Its just a bit louder than our old vacuum but it also out performed it.

So I bought this vacuum cleaner as a replacement for a Shark Professional Lift Away canister vaccum. The shark had some issues, namely: 1. It had an attachment tube through which all the suction power at some point went. This tube was made of a material that kept cracking and we had to duct tape it. In the end it was more tape than tube and this led to a loss of suction. 2. I was absolutely SICK of emptying the canister and digging out pet hair and inhaling the dust and cleaning the filter etc. It was nasty. My wife and I made a deal for the housework. She would do the downstairs and I the upstairs. Since the upstairs is 100% frize carpet, the vacuum quickly became a point of contention for me. I did my research (A LOT OF IT) and came to Oreck. I didn't feel like shelling out 500+ dollars for one of the super top of the line home versions that are aesthetically pleasing and instead opted to pocket the cash and buy this workhorse for 150 bucks. And I am IMPRESSED. We have 3 dogs and a cat. The dogs are a Siberian Husky, a German Shepard, and a St. Bernard. Needless to say we a have a LOT of pet hair. Some reviewers have mentioned that they didn't think the oreck was effective for this. These people are lying to you. Our carpets are now amazingly clean. This thing sucks up debris and pet hair like nothing I've ever seen. Its a BEAST. And its lightweight. The bags hold a LOT and when its time to change them out you just pull em, toss em and replace em. They are cheap. I've been through 2 in a month and got a 25 pack for like 15 bucks. Get the scent tabs. You can really smell them at first, after the first couple of days you cant smell anything, which hopefully is the point. Some people have mentioned a burning rubber smell when they started using the vaccuum. I noticed this too, but I think it is just a burn in phenomenon as it quickly went away. The replacement and maintenance parts (belt/roller) are both on amazon for under 10 bucks. I expect to change the belts and rollers on occasion and have this vacuum for a decade. It doesn't have any attachments. it just cleans the carpets and floors superbly well. We've used it downstairs on wood and rugs and tile with no issues and it has pulled up loose pet hair and cat litter with no problems. Give it a go. Best vacuum I've ever owned. See pictures for pet hair effectiveness.

Used heavily for housecleaning business. When it works, its great. Its got a good suction force, normal size, lightweight build. Fits great in the back of a sedan. I find that after heavy use, the plug end of the cable will tear. Imagine the tear of an apple charger, like that. It's annoying to fix and needs improvement. Additionally, you'll have the regular maintenance like having to open up the bottom and unclog the spinning mechanism, but that's normal. For office/housecleaning, I find that it gets the job done reliably, and will continue to use it for the foreseeable future.

I have purchased four of these vacuums over my lifetime for myself and for gifts! I truly like them as they are so lightweight and they really clean up the dirt well. They go from carpet, to tile, to wood and adjust accordingly. I bought a replacement part for my old one that I’ve had since 2004 and I’m going to give it to my granddaughter as she is getting her first department. Therefore, I treated myself to a new one.

I just received the Oreck Commercial XL Upright Corded Vacuum Cleaner, Bagged Professional Commercial Pro and I'm thrilled. It unpacked and was assembled in less that 20 minutes. It is a no frills vacuum but it is so light that it virtually floats. Listen, I'm 67 and I've had Rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia for 20 yrs. In the last 10, vacuuming and sweeping have become nearly impossible. I used to sweep and vacuum my whole house in less than an hour but now it can take days to do the whole house. My back, neck, arms, and hips are in agony pushing around the Hoover I use. I saw this and the reviews and decided it was worth the actual bargain price. If you have mobility or pain issues, this might be a good choice for you. I used it today and didn't have to sit down after I did one room. It was effortless. It went from carpet to floor easily and picked up the pine pellet cat litter that had been dropped. The carpet looked as good as it does with the larger heavier machine. I really love it and it is small enough I don't have to store it in a closet but can put it next to the washing machine in the laundry room. I truly hope it continues to live up to what I saw with the first use. There are no attachments. I to just attach the handle and go. Even came with one bag, which is much larger than my Hoover bags. With 3 cats, I have to vacuum a few times a week but have not been able to do that. So, I need an effective machine. This seemed to do the job. Is it as good as my Hoover? I haven't done a comparison because I have to have someone else use it. It is almost impossible for me now. It will be relegated to the garage until I think I need it. I plan on buying the hand held machine next so I have the versatility of the attachments.

The Oreck Vacuum is the best there is! This purchase is my 4th one. My first one was 25 years ago, and it would still be running if the kids had not vacuumed toys with it while cleaning their rooms. I think except for the wider XL21, and the newest models with a Dyson-style swivel hinge, which I would not want, that all the Orecks are basically the same great design and performance. The home models have headlights, two speeds, and shorter power cords. The commercial models have one speed, low profile for getting under furniture, and much longer and better power cords. My Berber carpet is 20 years old. I vacuum it daily. I see some aging, but people still comment that the carpet looks like new! The Orecks are noisy with the 6500 rpm brush-roller speed. The speed and quality of the brush-rollers are key to its excellent cleaning performance. I read about all vacuums before buying Oreck #4. They all indicate they are loud. I wear soft foam earplugs when doing many household chores, including vacuuming. The coffee grinder, the blender, the lawn mower, and several of my carpentry and auto tools are way louder than the Oreck. I wear ear plugs for all of those noisy tools. But back to the Oreck, to me, it's performance that counts, and I wouldn't buy anything other than an Oreck! This new Oreck is the lowest price I have seen at $179 on Amazon. I paid $325 + tax for it's red predecessor at a vacuum store. The two vacuums are identical except for color!!! My Oreck's #2 and #3 are still like new with maintenance of the belt and brush roller (very inexpensive parts on Amazon, three times the cost in a vacuum store). I gave them to my now adult children as they moved to college apartments. Now about the filter bags. Oreck makes the best filter bags made. The commercial bags do a good job, but my daughter has asthma, and I prefer the Oreck hypo-allergenic bags. They are referred to as HEPA by some. The commercial bags are good, they are blue, and less expensive. The hypo-allergenic filter bags are greenish, and they have layers of filter media in the replaceable filter bag. I think the hypo-allergenic bags are the greatest. Oreck commercial vacuums take bags "without filter docks". Those "docks" where the filter bag attaches are a special contraption that showed up on a few home models. This commercial vacuum has a regular filter connection port, and does not have a "dock" for the filter attachment. The commercial vacuum has the traditional, non-docking, filter connection port that the non-docking filter bag snaps onto. The filter bags seal to the port with a rubber-elastic seal that does not leak! For the commercial vacuum, I recommend green hypo-allergenic filter bags, and you need the traditional bags, not the bags that are designed for a "dock" contraption. CAUTION NOTE. This is a 5-star product, without any doubt. Read the astonishing and excellent reviews! I'm not the only Oreck enthusiast! HOWEVER it is disappointing to me that the blue Oreck in the picture is different than the actual vacuum I received. Mine has a gray bag, with the broad white diagonal stripe across the bag with "Oreck Commercial" emblazoned on the banner. The one in the picture is much nicer looking. My disappointment is not in the vacuum quality or performance. My disappointment is that I have to believe the seller knows the difference between the pictured vacuum and the one he is providing, and I suspect the one in the picture is a newer model than one I received, but I'm not sure. I expect the sellers to provide what they show. And I suspect they know exactly that they are picturing something different than they are providing. With that said, this Oreck is OUTSTANDING, and this is the lowest price I have seen on this vacuum. It cleans like a miracle, and I am VERY PLEASED! The long cord on the commercial vacuum is worth a lot to me. I plug it once by the stairway, and do the whole house without moving the cord. It also has soft wheels which are quieter on the hard floors than older models. The commercial cord is bigger around and the vacuum will not go over it and wrap it up in the motor like some of the smaller non-commercial cords. I also like the new style non-marring bumpers that really don't mark walls or furniture that get bumped. IT'S A GREAT VACUUM!

Bought this as a replacement for 25 year old XL that still works. This "commercial model" works great and seems well built, but the cord, in my opinion, is a bit too much. The length is nice, but the cord itself seems nothing more than a VERY heavy duty extension cord. It is stiff and unwieldly; difficult to pull around corners, for example. It will mar molding and painter corners after much use. As a designer myself, the cord selection seems to be a design afterthought; either cheap to source or already on hand. I will probably end up changing it out eventually. Otherwise, I appreciate the vacuums simple design and effectiveness; a housing, a motor and impeller and bag; no electronic garbage... just like an XL should be.

I had a high expectation when buying this vacuum due to the positive reviews. But I was a bit disappointed because this vacuum doesn’t work well on all carpets and very loud noise. So be mindful of that when you’re ready to get one in shaa Allaah.

Had one before and they are brilliant so.light easy to.use and you don't have to empty the bag every 5 mins. This one is very noisy, but I am still happy.

La AMEEEEEEEE. 100% la recomiendo

The problem I was trying to solve with this vacuum is that I was tired of lugging a huge canister vacuum all over my rather small house where I have three floors and not a lot of room to maneouvre. Most of my floors are low-to-mid-pile carpet and for those that aren't carpet, I don't normally vacuum them - I mop and/or sweep. Most of the upright vacuums that are readily available in stores seem to be heavily-marketed to look like they're more than they (like what is done with modern cars), and with this comes a significant amount of bulk and loss in functionality. I wanted a vacuum I could put in my closet when I wasn't using it, and something that went flat to vacuum underneath beds and other low-lying furniture. You'll probably know by looking at this whether it's what you want - you are likely looking for function over form. It turns on and off. It has one height only and the cord is manually wrapped around cord retainers at the back. It's light (I can carry it one-handed up the stairs). It has good suction. It's quite noisy. It doesn't have a light. It doesn't have attachments. It is just what I was looking for. For cleaning things other than floors, get Oreck's canister vacuum (BB1200DB or similar). It's a nice bridge between large canister vacuums and cheap handhelds and wins again in very similar ways.

So so disappointed ☹️. Chose this vacuum because it said commercial use. Thugs it would be ideal for a family with children. Plug doesn’t fit UK socket, nor is an adapter available!!!!!!!!😡 Someone recommended Sebo. Fantastic go with that save your time and money.
