Let's face it. Most vacuums just don't cut it when it comes to really cleaning a home or office. Pesky pet hair embeds deeper in carpet than traditional vacuums go; bits and pieces of tracked-in dirt and debris hunker down under floor trim just out of reach of the latest brush innovations, rendering us to the silliness of handpicking behind that expensive vacuum, filling our pockets with lint, and wondering-who's really the boss? Troubles like these made the folks at Eureka get down and dirty and, ultimately, design the Boss Smart-Vac Upright Vacuum. Offering powerful performance for everyday household cleaning, the Eureka Boss is the solution for people who insist on having a truly clean home. The Boss's Direct Air Control System features an air selector switch that lets you direct all suction either deep into the carpet or to the hose for easy above-the-floor cleaning. The Power Paw brush makes it easy to clean stairs and upholstery, and even claws up embedded pet hair, so Fido can spend more time inside. The motorized brush lets you go from carpet- to bare floor-cleaning with the flick of a switch. The Boss Smart-Vac is powered by a beefy, 12-amp motor that provides plenty of suction power for deep cleaning carpets, and leaves nothing behind on hard floors. Pretty smart; right? Well, here's the really smart part. The Boss Smart-Vac isn't just the best household carpet- and floor-cleaning vacuum on the market; it's also equipped with a unique, sealed HEPA filtration system that captures 99.97 percent of dust, pollen, allergens, and bacteria. So, vacuuming the house doesn't mean you have to dust afterward, or sneeze while you're doing it. Cleaner carpets and cleaner indoor air at the same time! Plus, the Boss is loaded with user-friendly features to take the frustration out of vacuuming. A wide cleaning path covers a lot of ground quickly before company comes. And, unlike inferior models, the Boss is designed with a brush-view window that shows you how hard it's working, letting you actually see the powerful brush roller remove dirt from carpets and floors. The exclusive dust trap system captures debris and dust in three stages. A handy stretch hose extends to five times its original length for reaching around furniture and sucking the cobwebs off the ceiling. And, a 30-foot cord won't leave you coming up short. The bare floor brush is designed to smoothly glide across wood and tile floors while picking up more dust and debris in corners and along baseboards than any other model. --Brian Olson

 Pleased with carpet clean up, but not at all with hard wood floor... September 5, 2008
Gena Garrison
This vacuum does an excellent job on carpet in my home. We have two dogs that shed a lot a it did not take much to fill up the bag with our large two story home. It worked great on the carpet! However, the switch to move it to hard wood floors does not work. I had read this in a previous review also. We have a lot of area to cover in hard wood floors and I was looking forward to not having to sweep as much. Very upset that this function is faulty and the switch will not stay put on hard wood floor. The brushes continue to roll not making it possible to clean adequately on hard wood floors.
Besides that glitch, the vacuum is excellent and I did not notice a problem with heaviness. I just did not feel like having to re-ship back to manufacturer and go another week without a vacuum so keeping my broken one : (
 Disappointing August 22, 2008

This vacuum has good suction and comes in a light package with an easily replaceable HEPA filter; it is easy to assemble. However, it arrived pre-broken -- the floor switch, which disengages the rollers -- did not work, and it had a cheap feel overall. Controls were not in sensible places and the extension hoses were difficult to deal with. It took very little time for me to return it to its original container and send it back. I came to the conclusion that vacuums are something you at least look at in person.

Bought after other reviews and it works great for us. Two dogs, Two kids and lots of use and still going strong. Love it
Good vacuum for the price August 15, 2008
L. Killion (Central California)
Overall I am very pleased with this vacuum. The suction is so much better than my old Hoover. I have two little dogs that shed constantly and this vacuum picks up their pet hair with one swipe. It also fluffed up the nap in my carpet so that it looks almost like new. I do wish the Power Paw had a storage location on the vacuum. That is really the only thing negative that I can say. I don't think I could have gotten a better vacuum for the price. It does the job that I expected it to do and it does it very well.

I have been really impressed with this vacuum cleaner. To be honest I promised myself never to buy a Eureka again after my last purchase, but after looking at the ratings I thought I would give the company another chance. The suction power is great. The clear attachment hose is very helpful as well. The dial to turn suction from the floor vacuum to hose is very convenient. I bought this vacuum as a refurbished model with some fear and trepidation but was so glad I made the purchase. It was 1/2 the price and I can find no problem at all. I have been recommending this vacuum to many people. The Boss Smart-Vac is a great buy in my opinion.
