## Questions & Answers

**Q: how much does it weigh?  I says 0.06 pounds on website**
A: It weighs about 12-13 pounds (I just weighed it on my bathroom scale :)

**Q: I ordered three of these vacuum cleaners for different offices.  Two of them are working great, but one is not.  Is there a warranty?**
A: There is a one year warranty on the Sanitaire SC679 vacuum.

**Q: I have dogs and cats. How does this work for animal hair?**
A: It works great with pet hair jus make sure to remove any hair accumulated around brush...

**Q: Can I use disposable bags inside the cloth bag on this machine?**
A: Actually you can. My local vacuum store converted it for me. They put on a new bag and I use paper disposable Eureka bags. MUCH better than shake out.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yes! A vacuum cleaner I love!
*by M***W on January 3, 2015*

You know you are getting old when... you look forward to a vacuum cleaner being delivered.I love this vacuum cleaner. I had a Hoover bagless upright for a few years and the canister broke. Of course it did; it's plastic, it gets dumped 2-3 times per vacuuming the house, and it was a POS. That thing was so heavy that I literally sweated when I used it. Now THIS Sanitaire - *queue the angels singing* - is a Godsend. It's so light that I can actually use it on the stairs. No, it doesn't have attachments, but that's okay! I would rather have no attachments than pay for something that doesn't ever really work or is outright dangerous (my old Dyson attachments would bring that thing tumbling down on me when I was cleaning the stairs). This Sanitaire weighs less than 12 lbs. I can vacuum all day and not get tired. I even use it on the hardwood floor to vacuum up the dog hair. It's great for that. Don't get the wrong idea though; I can't vacuum up the wood chips from the wood stove or any hard objects; those just get spit back out. But the suction on this thing is phenomenal, so I can vacuum near a clump of dog hair and it gets sucked up on the driveby. It's awesome. And then on carpets it's just fantastic. Six different height adjustments. And I am really getting to know the adjustments because this thing is so powerful that on area rugs, if the height is too low, the rug will rise and the vacuum will become louder. No biggie though. And speaking of louder, this vacuum cleaner is so dang quiet. Ahhh! And when I say that it becomes loud on the area rugs at times, it's still not as loud as that Hoover I had.BTW, don't worry yourself over the amperage of a vacuum cleaner. Some companies put that in the specs to confuse the buyer. Amperage measures the electrical current going from the house outlet to the motor of the vacuum cleaner. Yes, amps does tell you something about the motor, but that doesn't tell you how efficient the motor is, or how many of those amps are powering those onboard lights that vacuum cleaners need when you are often vacuuming in the dark. What you want to know is the CFS (cubic feet per second) of suction. The Sanitaire has great suction power, and I would challenge any other vacuum manufacturer to beat it.I ended up replacing the Shake-out bag with a different bag that takes bags. It's an extra expense ($20 for the cloth bag and an ongoing expense for the disposable bags), but I think it's worth it. I read that shaking out the bag is a pain in the butt. And once I received the vacuum cleaner, I can see why. The opening isn't that big. And I know I would never have gotten out all the dog hair and stuff. Ick. So I ended up getting Eureka F & G Upright Vacuum Bags (18 pk) and the Sanitaire Upright Vacuum Cleaner Cloth Outerbag from Amazon. The disposable bags are said to last about 6 months each. So far I've had mine a month (in a 2 dog, 1 cat, 1 boy, and 1 husband household) and I can't feel the dirt in the bag yet. I'm as surprised as hell because I thought I would go through one bag per month with the amount of times (3-ish per cleaning) I had to empty that Hoover canister!Buy this vacuum and you won't be disappointed. It's old school, but hey, why reinvent a wheel that works?!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great vacuum for the price
*by J***R on August 30, 2015*

Great vacuum for the price. I also have the SC899F, which has the 7 amp motor. This vacuum with 5 amps is more than powerful enough for all the carpets I've used it on (I clean carpets for a living).The SC899 is a little over-powered in some situations (not in a good way), but the SC679J has just the right balance between power and size to be more maneuverable, and ample power (with very good airflow) to clean carpets that the larger SC899 tries to eat.The wood brush roll (with bushings, not bearings) works well, but can be difficult to re-install when taken out for cleaning. This is solved by applying WD40 to the rubber end cushions and carefully re-inserting the brush roll until fully seated in the body again (the wood can swell in certain seasons, and shrink in others so it can vary in size slightly).The shake-out bag system is fairly easy to clean, just take it outside and carefully turn it inside out, vacuum it with a hose and brush, or gently sweep the dust with a whisk broom to clean the fabric. Turn it back right side out and clean the outside. It only takes a few minutes when you get the hang of it.These "dirty air" vacuums rely on airflow to work so resist the temptation to try and create a seal by lowering too much (leave a small gap for air to be pulled into the vacuum above the carpet), and you'll see small particles being drawn in from a few inches in front and around the vacuum head.While perfect as it is for home use, I recommend upgrading the brush roll at some point to the VGII for an improvement in overall performance, but again this is optional if you use this vacuum frequently.BTW, this one does not have the quick clean fan chamber (where two screws reveal the fan and the chamber for easy cleaning and replacement) so when eventual cleaning must be done, you have to remove the motor, which isn't a big deal, there are videos online to demonstrate this if you look for them.It does come with an extra belt, but I've cleaned with mine for weeks now and am still on the original belt, so if you don't run the vacuum too low the belts can last a long time.This is an exceptional vacuum for the price, but it takes adjusting to using this type of vacuum if you have been using the more common plastic vacs which have the motor behind a bag (or dustcup and cyclone) and must pull through all that and hoses to get to the cleaning head. This motor is right down by the opening, and uses airflow (with a large fan) to create a negative air pressure to pick up dirt. So you have to fiddle with the height adjustment to ensure a balance of airflow and agitation. This is easy to learn and creates superior deep cleaning when you get it right. Don't be fooled by the price, this one is worth at least twice the price they're asking...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Actually works…
*by A***R on February 23, 2025*

After going through a couple of weak, battery-powered posers, this old-school-type vacuum cleaner works perfectly. I was actually shocked at the sucking power of this machine.
