Customer Reviews of Electrolux EL6985B Harmony Ultra Quiet Canister Vacuum
Customer Rating: Rating: 3/5Rating: 3/5Rating: 3/5Rating: 3/5Rating: 3/5
Summary: Harmony Vacuum Cleaner
Comment: Nice product for the price. It is very quiet and convenient for hardwood floors. Came with carpet attachment that I did not know would be included. Not sure if it a genuine Electrolux product. Manual states to contact Eureka for repairs.

Summary: Electolux Harmony
Comment: I recieved this very quickly and used this for a few months now.
The main hose came crushed in one spot which does not effect the use.
The outside of the box was not damaged so the quality control at this facilty is lacking.
The directions are disappointing considering the price of this unit.
It is quiet and did very well on my hardwood. I used this under the bed right away and it sucked the dust right up.
This does not do well on flimsy/throw rugs and I had to drag my other vaccum out of the closet.
I do think the filtration system has worked wonders, it blows up instead of on the side, it doesn't end up blowing your dirt everywhere. I feel the air is truly more filtered, I don't smell any foul odors when it's turned on.

Summary: Lovin' my new Vacuum
Comment: I love my new vacuum. It is so quiet and has great suction! It glides over my hardwood floors and so easy to switch to carpet. It gets under all my very low furniture and the retractable cord is so handy. I highly recommend this vacuum. Buy with confidence.

Summary: post #100: excellent value
Comment: bagless upright convert here. i purchased this can-vac as refurbished ($170) back in dec05. no problems at all, and i still LOVE using it. my apartments have become smaller and smaller, yet there's always a suitable storage spot for it. nothing has broken/nothing is "flimsy."

suction: decreases every time the bag is near full. i completely forget to change the bag; increase the suction and this puppy just keeps on taking it.

PROS:
- powerhouse
- QUIET! (i was amazed at how quiet this is; i often vac late in the evening and the wheels are quiet, too.)
- light weight (yes, when compared to all the past uprights i owned)
- convenient attachments holder
- long retractable cord (always wanted this feature)
- tiny disposable bag with closure (love this, too!), so everything stays clean

CONS: *none*, but
- i thought the color i was getting was more orange - current pic is somewhat accurate - paprika, not chili powder.
- i would have liked power controls on the wand as well as a light at the head, but that would have made the can-vac bulkier to store and heavier. would have cost more, too.)

* when i received my can-vac, the user guide noted complimentary (free) bags. these were not included. i promptly called electrolux about this and i received my bags about 3 days later. all it takes is a phone call, so stop complaining and do something already. *

pay attention, people - this is not the same electrolux company. i won't go into details since you can google it.

**i would highly recommend this can-vac to anyone and i will buy it again should my current can-vac die. next model up is sold at bj's if you need it in a hurry, and i think lowe's has it because that's where i go (once a year - no pets) to get bags.

Choosing Appliance -> Shopping Dryer
When shopping for a new clothes dryer, look for one with a moisture sensor that automatically shuts off the machine when your clothes are dry. Not only will this save energy, it will save wear and tear on your clothes caused by over-drying. Keep in mind that gas dryers are less expensive to operate than electric dryers. The cost of drying a typical load of laundry in an electric dryer is 30 to 40 cents compared to 15 to 25 cents in a gas dryer.
Choosing Appliance -> Whip / Whisk
Many still consider a whip as a "gourmet" piece of kitchen equipment. Nothing could be further from the truth. It is as essential as a kitchen stove and should be in everyone's kitchen. Nothing works better for mixing a multitude of different preparations or for making sauces or gravy. Buy a solid stainless steel whip with moderately stiff wires. Very thin wires are for mixing delicate things like egg whites or whipped cream. Very thick, solid wires are for mixing stiff dough.

Useful info -> Energy-Efficient Appliances
When you're shopping for appliances, you can think of two price tags. The first one covers the purchase price - think of it as a down payment. The second price tag is the cost of operating the appliance during its lifetime. You'll be paying on that second price tag every month with your utility bill for the next 10 to 20 years, depending on the appliance. Refrigerators last an average of 20 years; room air conditioners and dishwashers, about 10 years each; clothes washers, about 14 years.
