I was going to buy a Kirby. I have a 5 month old, and I wanted my floors to be as clean as possible for when he starts crawling. I had a Kirby representative come to my house, and I almost bought one, but they were just so expensive! Wow! I decided to read the Consumer Reports on vacuum cleaners, and boy am I glad I did. I saw that this vacuum cleaner ranked #1 and the Kirby was 7th on the list. When I saw the price of the Kenmore vacuum was $275 compared to the $1300 for the Kirby, I was sold. I went and bought it this weekend. I used it, and it worked great. I love that it lets you know when the floor/furniture/etc. is clean. I also liked the attachments. I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend it. I am not worried about my little one crawling around on my carpet now!

Pros: Love the smart clean system that lets you know when the floor is clean! Also loved the length of the hose.
Cons: I haven't found any yet.
WOW!! This vacuum sucks

This is great vacuum. I thought something was wrong with the intelliclean system because I only got red lights. (The lights change from red/green to indicate if your floor is clean). I vacummed for DAYS, I mean 45 minutes at a time and I'm happy to say, I'm in the green. At first I thought it was to expensive but after reading all the reviews I gave it a shot. I'm thrilled. The only drawback I see is that even though there are ample attachments, including a floor attachment, I didnt' feel like I efffectively vacuumed under my children's bed. The have carpeting and bad allergies (they're noisy otherwise I'd remove it, but we live in an apartment).
There was no smell after vacuuming and when it kept turning off after 10 minutes of use, I called the support number and the tech was very helpful and told me to tighten the screw that attaches the handle and it seems that that was the issue. I highly reccomend the vacuume.

In the consumer report calendar this Vacuum was rated the best Vaccum of 2006. You save $400 on this Vaccum. Its better than the Oreck "top of the line vaccum." Its great. We are expecting a baby boy hopefully by 25 Jan. And its seems to clean the carpent much better than my mothers Oreck! Good luck vaccuming.

I saw this vacuum rated as the top in Consumer's digest so wanting to save money and not buy a Dyson, we decided to buy it. Bad decision. This vacuum would only work about two out of three times. The performance light came on all the time and we had to continually try to unclog it. We kept going through the whole system and couldn't find clogs in it. It didn't suck very well. The indicator lights were a joke. It would be green in one spot, indicating that it was clean. Then, seconds later it would be orange again in that same spot. How could it be clean, then not clean, seconds later? Well, after calling the help line a few times, we just packed it up and took it back. We bought a Dyson and that thing works great. We went over the same carpets that we just tried cleaning with the Kenmore, and we have over two canisters full of dirt. This was after the Kenmore kept telling us the carpet was clean. It was twice the money, but worth it.

Pros: They gave us a refund on it
Cons: keeps clogging, no suction

Reading the reviews and comparing them to my own experience with this vacuum, I have to say, poor reviews are not always the fault of the product. Some people are simply so mechanically challenged, they don't understand the fundamental basics of the equipment they hold in their hand.
I recently offered to take a look at my neighbor's power nozzle, because the beater-brush wasn't working properly. Upon inspection, I could see multiple strands of thread, fishing line and her pretty long red hairs to tightly wrapped around the the beater-brush, from side to side, it couldn't possibly to it's job and could barely turn in the first place. TURN IT OVER NOW AND THEN AND CLEAN THE BRUSH, you idiots.
Vacuums are not space rockets. They are generally ver simple mechanical devices. It doesn't take a mechanical engineer to clean the brush and free it up to do it's job. My child could take one of these apart and put it back together if I waved a twenty dollar bill under his nose.
If you take care of your tools, they will take care of you.

I read the reviews and looked in Consumers Report and decided to buy it. I am glad I did. Overall it is a pretty good vacuum. I like that it tells you when the carpet is clean. It takes me longer now to clean but feel like I am doing a better job.
The attachments are pretty flimzy. I have a feeling they will break easily.
The attachments don't store easily and stick out from the machine.
The vacuum is pretty heavy. I am pretty small so I need to get my husband to take up and down the stairs for me.
I would recommend to a friend.

Review:
Seems to have gotten clogged on one of the hoses at one point, 2 teenagers, 1 golden retreiver, 2 cats and a bird, - I bought it because I thought it could handle it. Worked great out of the box, was the best thing I ever spent money on. Now it seems louder than before, and seems to get clogged more then it seems to work ok. We took it to one of the sears band aid places and they told us it was fixed. We are taking it directly to Sears and will see what they can do. As of now, I am not happy with it at all.

Review:
I've owned the vacuum just over 2 years. In that time the beater bar jammed 4 times. Once I reset it. The other 3 times it had to be repaired. The 4th time was a week after I picked it up from the previous time. I haven't found out yet if I'll have to pay for it. Sears says there's a 90 day warranty after a repair for a related failure.
Other undesirable features:
Wand has 2 plastic nubs that lock it into the hose. They break off easily. I bet Sears has an order to replace those whenever asked.
Upholstery attachment: This comprises of 2 pieces; 1.) An attachment that slips over the hose and has no bristles. It can be used in areas that don't require a brush.
2.) The brush. This slides over the first part. While being used on upholstery, the brush keeps falling off the first part. It is only held on by friction. The only way I have found to use it is to hold onto the brush while manipulating the wand with the other hand. Very annoying. When I complained about it Sears says there was nothing they could do about it.
Looks like I have no option but to buy the extended maintenance agreement because I assume I will be making frequent visits to the Sears Repair Center.

Pros: Carpets are clean after use... when it works
Cons: Attachment flaws, beater bar reset, Wand

The hose is supposed to extend to 17 feet. i couldn't get it to go more than 7 feet without falling down our stairs and almost taking me out in the process. the only reason i'm not returning it is because it picks up dog hair very well. but i'll have to get a separate vacuum for the stairs. better to get a lighter vacuum for regular use and a separate handheld for tight spaces and stairs.
