Customer reviews for 12 Amp Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum

12 Amp Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum

The Panasonic MCUL915 12 Amp Cyclonic Bagless Upright Vacuum features a PowerBlast automatic filter cleaning system that prevents loss of suction. A blast of air cleans the filter every time you turn on your AeroBlast vacuum. This technology enables the vacuum to always operate at full power without dirt being trapped and clogging up the filter. And the dual motor system allows for more consistent cleaning performance as well as extends the life of the belt. If the agitator is accidentally jammed by an object or rug fringe, the Belt Saver feature shuts off the agitator motor to save the belt from breaking. And the large-capacity dirt cup helps keep pet hair from sticking to the cup.

I can not say enough about this vacuum. Absolutely love it! To think I almost paid $200 more for a different machine. So glad I didn't. This machine sucks big time! It sucks in a good way. You will not regret this purchase and savings!

Really like the bagless, easy to empty and you can see how much the vacuum picks up. Pick up handle is easy but a little difficult carrying it up & down stairs. Works really well and lives up to all the reviews I found on line. Would recommend to friends.

Very good vacuum....works great initially and I'm hoping it continues to do so. The dust bin is a bit awkward to empty and clean, but not too bad. Certainly picks up a lot of dirt and dog hair, even on my dining room rug, which my other vacuums never seemed to really get clean.
Yes, I recommend this product.

The vacuum is a little heavy but it works great. Very easy to use the attachments with no loss of suction. I have owned Panasonic vacuums for 20 years and am glad I purchased another one. There are cheaper vacumms and more expensive ones too but they don't work any better. The only small issue is that they give you one attachment that does not store on the vacuum.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This Panasonic bagless vacuum cleaner was easy to assemble right out of the box. The cleaning brushes are wide and the suction is quite powerful. The handle removes with the push of a button and allows attachments to be used with or without a telescoping steel extension tube. We highly recommend this top-quality vacuum cleaner.

Love this vacumn. My carpeting now looks clean and brighter with this new vacumn. Did not realize that my old one did not clean very well. It just picked up the surface dirt.
The only reason I replaced it was that the rug fringe got caught in the roller and burned out the motor. This new vacumn has an automatic shut-off if anything gets caught.
So you can see that I now see that the old one did not really clean my rugs/carpets thoroughly.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I received this today via UPS and went to work on my first floor, it's tiled, and I intend to keep this vacuum downstairs, hauling vacuums that weigh much on my stairs it OUT. So far, this vacuum seems to clean very well, has great suction, and works very well. The reason I gave it a 4 rating is that it does take a bit of energy to push and the attachments are just ok. Luck for me I tried a turbine brush attachment from a Hoover and it works cause the one that came with it is lame. For dusing the attachment they send with it is awkward, am going to hunt around in my vacuum parts for a better one that fits.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Our 20+ year old vacuum finally kicked the bucket. The dreaded day I was not looking forward to had arrived...time to shop for a new one. It didn't take long to find this Panasonic super amazing machine. After unpacking it (this afternoon in fact), it was extremely easy to put together; not much to do really. The manual was almost not even needed, though I consulted it to be sure everything was present and to make sure of where all the attachments go. Plugged it in, turned it on and wow...a quick run over our living room rug yielded more dirt and hair than I ever thought possible. With our old vacuum, it couldn't have gotten this much out of the rug even after 10 cleanings...literally. My wife and I were stunned...SHOCKED...at how much dirt there was that came out of that rug!! Heck, there were things in there that I don't even know where they came from! Clearly, our old one must have died a long time ago, it just didn't know it. Thinking about it now, I seriously doubt it could have ever come close to doing the job this thing did today even when it did work great. I LOVE the indicator light for letting you know if the rug is clean (sensor no longer detects dirt). That's going to be great when the kids vacuum; they'll know if they're doing a good job or not. Emptying the dirt couldn't be easier. Pull up on the handle and the canister pops right out. Twist the bottom as directed on the side, dump and you're done. Putting it back is obviously the reverse, but there's no hard snap, it just gently clips back into place. Everything button-wise is easily accessible. The bare floor feature works just as brilliantly as the carpet mode and the extender works beautifully for getting to those hard to reach places...this thing even gets to areas our old vacuum couldn't. Plenty of attachments for all occasions too. In fact, if I had even one complaint (which I don't really) it might be the fact that there's an attachment that has no place on the side of the vacuum. All the others fit perfectly in their little spots, but one seems to have been a bonus and/or an afterthought because there's no room on the side for it anywhere. I'm not complaining, it's actually quite nice to have so many options...more so than our old one had. We couldn't be happier with it! I used to dread vacuuming, but now I find myself in anticipation; I can't wait to get to use it again. it's actually fun to vacuum now.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Works wonders on surfaces in removing not only dirt, but pet hair. A little heavy to move around but worth the cleaning power. Just wish the cord was retractable though it does reach a good distance. Would recommend to anyone, especially those who suffer from allergens.

First the things I really like about the vacuum. It provides excellent suction and the telescoping handle that is also the attachment wand is both convenient and comfortable. The auto shut off of the beater bar when it tangles in the tassels of my area rugs is a wonderful feature and will save me the cost of additional belts every month.
The "just" good features. The pet attachment doesn't provide as much power to lift pet hair as other vacuums I have used at the homes of friends and family. It gets the job done, just not as well as competitors. Also, while the cyclonic system provides excellent suction, it takes up a good deal of space resulting in a fairly small dust bin. I have to empty it more than my last vacuum, but it is easy to remove and put back on.
I am very pleased with my purchase, but if you have a long haired dog or cat and want to use the pet attachment for stairs or upholstery, you may want to look at a different vacuum.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Our old $120ish vacuum cleaner was not doing well. The rubber belt was stinking with each use...but little did I know just how not good it was doing until we got this vacuum cleaner. Do a google search and find the video Panasonic did about this unit. It will get you way excited.
I love the clean/dirty indicator light that shows whether dirt is still being picked up. The carpet in our house is just about 6 months old. It was starting to show a path on the well-traveled area in our bedroom. Plus, our dog sleeps on the floor in our room. I vacuumed our room until the indicator showed green over the whole floor. Not only was it amazing (disgusting) how much fine dirt and lint plus dog hair it picked up but the carpet actually felt different to walk on barefoot. It had that springy feel it had when it was first installed.
The hardwood floor in the living room, which I used to vacuum with an attachment, is superbly cleaned by changing the floor selector to 'bare floor' which shuts off the spinning wheel and simply sucks all the dirt right into the vacuum rather than throwing it everywhere.
I got so much dirt, hair and dust on this vacuum's first cleaning of our house that I completely took apart the dust canister to clean it. There are several pieces to it but it came apart and went back together very easily with the assembly diagram sticker on the canister.
Speaking of the canister it removes and re-attaches to the unit very easily with no problems.
Bottom line is I think this vacuum is well worth the money. I can't even imagine what a higher price unit would be like. This thing is amazing!
Yes, I recommend this product.

The Cyclonic Bagless Vacuum Cleaner works really well. I used my old vacuum cleaner then followed right behind it with this one and was amazed to see all the dirt and dust that i missed. This vacuum has a variety of attachments that lets you get to hard to reach areas and it is all pretty easy to assemble/disassemble. I don't have to worry about those hard to find vacuum cleaner bags any longer, i just push a button and pop off the collection canister. Empty it right into the trash can, wipe the inside if i want and right back to picking up dirt. Excellent item at a reasonable price. Thanks Home Depot.
