Although this is a lightweight vacuum cleaner, it has been well made. This bagless vacuum has good suction and is easy to maneuvre, thanks in part to its lightweight.
Using micro-filtration to capture a lot of allergens like mites, polled and dust, the powerful 12 amp motor, large dust cup and no clog hosing make this a good vacuum cleaner for the price.
You also get a few tools to use on the extension wand including a dusting brush and a crevice tool for getting into those hard to reach places.
While there are no bags with this bagless cleaner, expect to clean the filter regularly, especially if you have pets, although the upside is that there is only one filter and its washable.
Eureka 4700 Maxima users like:
- Solid construction.
- Good suction.
- low price.
- lightweight.
.. but are not so keen on:
- having to clean the filters regularly (often after every use if you have pets).
- vacuum is quite loud.


Its a real pain having to clean out the filter after each vacuum. I have three cats, and I found that if I didn’t do this, the vacuum starts to over-heat as it clogs up. However, having said that, as a second vacuum, its cheap, light and easily moved around the house.
