Eureka 166DX Review: Lightweight Upright Vacuum Cleaner
An inexpensive vacuum cleaner at just $24.96, this lightweight Eureka model is ideal for small homes or apartments. The cord is short at just 15 feet, and the vacuum head is narrow, but the suction is still more than adequate to pull up a great deal of hair and dust. The dust canister is easy to empty with little fuss. The handiest feature is that the vacuum quickly transforms into a handheld form, making it easy to clean upholstery, drapes, and even countertops. The vacuum weighs next to nothing, so it’s incredibly easy to carry upstairs and tuck away in a closet when you’re done.
