Holds up to 4 kids
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are a household with four kids, so we are always looking for new ways to make cleaning easier (which often involve the word “pet” - you’d be surprised how similar the messes can be). Overall, this vacuum has worked well for us and I would recommend it! We have used it on our carpet, laminate flooring, and even in our car so far and it has done well on all three surfaces, picking up everything from tiny crumbs to whole pieces of cereal. Pros: Good suction power Versatile attachments Easy to empty Can switch the roller on and off as needed Handles a lot of different messes Nice overall look and design Not too heavy or wide Liftaway feature for tight spaces (always a favorite of mine) Cons (really only minor nitpicks): I wish the switch to turn the roller on and off were closer to the handle to change back and forth more easily with one hand I can’t wait to see how this one holds up! Seems nice and sturdy and I’m overall happy with it.
powerful quiet and necessary for pet parents
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: This vacuum is so quiet that I can listen to my podcast through my earbuds, on normal level while vacuuming. It does a great job on both hardwood floors and carpet. However, I have pretty short pile and when I had it on “low carpet/bare floor”, it was REALLY hard to push so I changed it to “plush carpet” and it was way easier. It’s powerful yet easy to maneuver with the comfortable handle. The first time I used it on all my floors, it picked up quite a bit. I have three cats, one of whom I call my Exploding Kitten because she’s long haired and sheds a LOT. I assume some of what it picked up were carpet fibers but I’m confident much of it was dirt, hair, dander, etc. I love that I can switch from hardwood to carpet in one flip of a switch. The two included attachments conveniently attach to the sides and, I just figured this out today, there is a cord holder just below the handle which was previously bugging me that I had to keep picking it up off the floor. The easy ‘wand release’ makes a quick switch to these attachments very fluid. AND!!…you can simply remove the top section of the vacuum if you don’t need the roller brush section, for say, stairs, tight corners, etc. I have long hair and also shed a lot so the “tangle free” roller brush will certainly be tested over time. I think it’s fantastic that it has a HEPA filter but I can’t say much about that because I don’t know how much those will cost to replace. Easy to empty the canister, which I do after every use because it’s so satisfying to see how much I get each time. Haha! Cons: It’s certainly more bulky than my stick vacuum and is not convenient to use when vacuuming under chairs and tables because of that. I also find myself grabbing the stick vacuum when needing to do a quick cleanup job.
Picks up hair like no other
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very intrigued by CleanView Max Lift-Off claim to have "no more hair wrap on the brush roll." My daughter and I both have very long hair that is constantly all over the floors. One of the worst parts of using our old vacuum was constantly cutting it out of the brush roll after every use. We vacuum the carpeted bedrooms at least once a week and hardwood living spaces (with rugs) about every 2-3 days. The CleanView Max lived up to the hype! After vacuuming three bedrooms, living room, and hardwood foyer, there was virtually NO hair on the brush bar. I have NEVER experienced that before! There was a lot of hair in the canister. It emptied with ease without puling any hair out of the filter. The closed HEPA system is a huge plus. I don't feel air blowing out the back while in use and the air feels cleaner after vacuuming. The only downfall I have for this vacuum is that it is not self-propelled. It definitely takes some effort to push across high pile carpets even after adjusting the suction setting. This does make it harder for my kids (all under age 10) to help and vacuum their own rooms. On hardwoods and low pile carpets, it moves with ease. The turning capabilities to reach tight spaces are outstanding.
Powerful Vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum was easy to assemble, which was important to me; not many pieces to connect and instructions were brief and concise, also important to me. The vacuum is compact and has places to hold its other pieces, a great feature, as to not lose them or just have to store them elsewhere. I’ve been using this on my carpet, and the amount of pet hair it has pulled up is astonishing. The kicker with that is I’ve been using another vacuum for years and it became clear to me how much that vacuum was missing. I could tell almost immediately that this vacuum seemed much more powerful, and I greatly appreciate being able to switch the setting depending on the flooring or type of carpet. Something else I love is how soft it makes my carpet feel, almost like new! I will say that pushing the vacuum is a bit heavy, but it’s worth it knowing how much it’s pulling from the carpet, it’s very satisfying being able to see it in the clear collection piece. Overall I’m very impressed with this vacuum, probably the nicest one I’ve ever used.
You need this vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum exceeded my expectations! It has a chic look with a little pop of blue and a very convenient swivel design so it moves with you as you move rather than being stationary. The cleaning power is outstanding! It cleaned dog hair, sequins, and a plethora of other messes on carpet and hardwood floors. The assembly was very easy and overall the vacuum is very user friendly. I'd recommend this product to anyone looking for an effective and convenient vacuum. The pictures speak for themselves!
Great vacuum for pet and kid messes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m loving the CleanView® Max Lift-Off! It was very easy to assemble out of the box, and has a pretty sleek design for a standing vacuum. It handles very easily which helps if you need to get into tight corners. This vacuum cleans great! I have two kids and two dogs, and a combination of hardwood floors and carpet, and this was able to efficiently and thoroughly clean up broken glass, spilled cereal, spider webs, and pet hair (LOTS of pet hair!). My favorite feature is the extendable arm so can I reach corners of the floor or ceiling and behind couches. Sometimes those arms can be really hard to wrangle or just unwieldy, but it was very easy to use with this vacuum. It’s a feature I use often!
CleanView Max Lift Off My ONLY Vacuum Now
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow! This vacuum definitely surprised me, it looks VERY high end with the sleek black colors & clear dust tank/brush roll. I immediately used it on my area rug that was covered in hair & seamlessly switched to hard wood, zero problems. I was shocked to see what the previous vacuum had missed including all the hair it seemed to find & didn’t get stuck around the brush roll. It even tackled cleaning my furniture upholstery with the attachment. My favorite is the suction power, it basically self propels. I can even vacuum with my kid in the room now thanks to the HEPA filter. My only complaint is there isn’t a light on the front, that would be a phenomenal addition. I was able to clean 4 rooms & a hallway all with carpet & hardwood before having to empty the XL dust tank. It’s super convenient using the lift off feature to clean ceilings, corners, light fixtures, etc. Again, I’m shocked at the extreme power this vacuum brings!
Solid and strong
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum works great. It is easy to use, versatile in its features, and seems steady and reliable. It is more compact than some other traditional vacuums, but it is still pretty big. I will only use bangles vacuums, so this definitely fits that bill, and it is strong enough to pick up everything. The cord is a good length. The attachments are intuitive—enough options to tackle all my vacuuming needs but not so many that it’s overwhelming. All the pieces store on the body of the vacuum, which is great! My only complaint is that because of the lift-off feature that allows the body of the vacuum to separate from the base for different types of cleaning and mobility, the vacuum is top-heavy. This makes it more difficult to maneuver, especially for children. Works great on carpet, rugs, and wood, and it’s easy to adjust the settings between the three.
Versatile cleaning for every day
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first received the CleanView max lift of vacuum we were immediately impressed by the look of the machine and the filter system. The clear reservoir was very helpful when vacuuming our main level carpet. It was easy to see right away how well the machine performed. I also used it on our wood floor level in place of sweeping crumbs. The simple adjustment settings make it easy to move from each level. My only complaint is that the cord is shorter than I’m used to so I had to stop and plug into a new outlet a few times. However, the effectiveness of the machine makes this an easy compromise to make. We also loved the hose feature and attachments. Again, it is very easy to change quickly to this mode of cleaning. The suction of the hose was strong and I easily cleaned our carpeted stairs and well as any tight corners in the house. My favorite feature, and something I had not seen before, was the clear view of the spinning brush. We have two family members with long hair and have had to untangle it from our previous vacuum often. I have been using the clear view vacuum for several weeks and the brush is still clear of hair! Thank you to the Stellar Reciews Panel for sending us this product. We love it!
Great vacuum for the mess of daily family life
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With a toddler and a dog, vacuums get A LOT of use in our home. The design of this vacuum is a typical upright vacuum style, and easy to maneuver and handle around corners, edges and back and forth. It's definitely a substantial feeling vacuum, but not too bulky or heavy that it can't be carried up and down stairs. It does a great job lifting pet hair off the carpet and grabbing everything that accumulates on our hardwood and tile floors. You can tell that it's picking up a lot because the dirt tank fills up quickly! I also appreciate that emptying the dirty tank is very simple and, while I haven't had to do it yet, the separator, motor filter, and foam filter look really easy to clean. One of my favorite features is the fact that his vacuum is so versatile - it's great for floors, but it also has the hose and extension wand with tool attachments to customize your cleaning needs (example, getting under couches or vacuuming stairs). Overall, you can tell it's a very well-built and well-designed vacuum that can handle the rigor of a messy and active home!
