Eureka Altima 12 amp
by Mrs. Kim Brenneman

I post this as a warning to other buyers.
I have had the Eureka Altima 12 amp vacuum cleaner for less than a year and it is finally going to the dumpster. I say finally because it has been a pain-in-the-behind-piece-of-junk since the get go.
This vacuum had poor suction, it needed its filters cleaned out after minimal vacuuming, the bagless system is a dirty mess, and the whole thing is awkwardly weighted causing it to fall over with little cause.
I bought Eureka Altima at Target but could not buy new belts at Target. If it was convenient I would box the thing up with the new belts I ordered online and send it to Eureka.
This vac would be a huge embarrassment to the founder of Eureka. I am sorry for him and his family and the shareholders of the company.

Thanks for sharing, Kim.
I don't have much experience with the Eureka Altima vacuum but I do know that the Eureka 4870GZ is one of the best vacuums of all time based on more than 700 reviews on Amazon.com.
