Question: Does this work on hardwood floors?
Document: I use this machine at work. The vacuum is used for light duty in a small historic home about 10 to 15 minutes each day on hardwood floors and small area rugs. This vacuum has little suction, will not remain in upright position and the cord is so short that an extension cord is necessary.The first unit purchased by our administration broke on its first day of use. To give credit where it is due, the company has sent an identical replacement.
I love that this is small and easily maneuverable picks up hair and dirt well. It works better on carpet than hardwood floors but I expected that so no complaints there. Overall satisfied with this product.
I bought this vacuum based on other users reviews and because the price was right. I wanted a light weight vacuum that sould work on carpet and hard floors. I have 2 cats and I need to vacuum often. I have now had this vacuum for over a year and I think it is not good at all.Cons:Does not have a carpet/ hard floor setting. I find it moves dirt around on the hard floors.
We chose this one because it has great reviews, it's in the Hepa category and its price is great.But we soon found out it fits the bad reviews better.It doesn't suck the duty in hardwood floors or rugs. I feel like I put $50 in the trash can.We are looking for a new vacuum cleaner.
Again, our condo is small, so it serves it's purpose.UPDATE: JUNE 2012Perhaps we got a lemon but after less than a year ALL SUCTION is gone. I have looked for any blockage in the machine but haven't found any. The vacuum will not even pick up dust on our hardwood floors! I will be contacting Dirt Devil to see about replacement. Very disappointed!
This vacuum is too small. I have to make 2 passes due solely to size, on areas that I used to make just one. What's worse is it doesnt pick anything up on carpet. It works ok with dust balls on the hardwood floors, which we are lucky to have throughout the house except one room. Unfortunately the room with carpet is the largest of them all and the most used.
I was quite impressed with the suction power on this fan! Its very light (which is great b/c I'm quite petite and prefer not to alligator wrestle a vacuum to clean) and easy to store in my little apartment. Plenty of attachments to get into the nooks and crannies such as under the over (grr those cooking crumbs) and works lovely even on the hardwood floors! Love that it's bagless too!!!
From the minute we took it out of the box, it has never worked well on hardwood floors, all it does is blow dust around. It works a little better on carpets so if you are just buying this vacuum for carpets, I would give it three stars. The main reason for the poor review is because the vacuum is advertised as a hardwood/carpet vacuum, and it is 100% not suitable for hardwood. Save your money, pass on this.
My Hoover Brush Vac died, so I cashed in some credit card points for this vac. As other reviews have noted, it's very noisy, especially, and ironically, on carpet. I need to wear ear plugs when using it. On floors it's tolerable. It does not do nearly as good a job as my Hoover did, and even though it's OK on carpet, it doesn't even pick up a piece of cat litter from my hardwood floor.
I love this Dirt Devil. It's lightweight and I carry it up and down the stairway without any problems. It's suction is very powerful and works alot better than other large name brand vacuums. It is very loud, but it gets the job done. I use it for every room in the house. I especially love it because you can use it on any type of floor -- carpet as well as hardwood or tiled floors.
Answer: Yes, but it's not perfect when you go on and off a rug.  I use it for both bare floor and rugs on Cape Cod where there is a lot of sand and dust.  (I also have two dogs and a cat, and so far ir has held up well.
