Kenmore Intuition BU4020 Bagged Upright Vacuum Pet Friendly Lift-Up Carpet Vacuum Cleaner 2-Motor Power Suction with HEPA Filter, Pet Handi-Mate, 3-in-1 Combination Tool for Carpet, Floor, Pet Hair

Love this vacuum. It’s lightweight and easy to maneuver. Bags are easy to replace, and I appreciate the various functions it has (isolating brush, extra attachments, etc). I do wish there were storage placements for all the attachments on the vacuum itself but it’s not a big deal. Also, the “bag refill” light never changes, even when it needs to be changed. Unsure if it’s a sensor that’s not working or more of a timed indicator that we just happen to override since we use it so much. No matter, I just check the bag’s capacity (easy to do) about once a week. Picks up our very hairy dog’s fur quite well and none of the dusty mess other bagels vacuums seems to always create.

I have 5 cats, a dog, various foster pets, and multiple people with long hair all shedding in my house on top of the usual mess young kids can make, so I've tried all the big-name vacuums that promise to take care of my level of disaster. They all get tangled and stopped up right away and they've been impossible to keep going for long. And to top that off, none of them really had the suction power that they claimed to have. This one, however, is everything, and this listing for it is too humble. My biggest complaint is how great it sucks everything up, which is also one of the things I love most about it. Since I'm used to subpar vacuums, I'm also used to being able to vacuum while there are still random socks or pet toys or homework lying on the floor. DON'T DO THAT WITH THIS VACUUM. It not only cleaned several months of untouched nastiness in our rug, but it also took up playing cards, kids socks, hair clips, and paper towels with almost no issue. The sock stayed in the brush area, but the paper towel went almost all the way through to the bag. I thought I'd be unclogging the hose forever, but there's this switch on the handle that allows you to mess with the hose suction, and I was able to pop it out of the way with little to no issue. The sensors are excellent. One shows if the brush is being effective (which clued me into the sock's location) and the other shows the fullness of the bag (which clued me into the paper towel in the hose). This is the first vacuum I've had with a bag in it, and I'm so ok with it. It's light, durable, easy to assemble, quick to move and maneuver, and with the suction power, it's also exceptionally efficient and thorough. If my carpets can't slow it down, it should be able to handle anything. Buy this vacuum. It's beyond worth it.

Ok. Here is my review of the Kenmore vacuum. I will list the good points and then the not so good points. I vacuum EVERY day. With three dogs, it is a must. So, I know a little about vacuuming. 1. I like the fact that this vacuum was so easy to assemble that a caveman could have done it. Major PRO. 2. I like the fact that this vacuum has a bag and is not bagless because I hate to empty dust and hair filled cannisters. Major PRO 3. I can tell by the sound of this vacuum that it appears to have a strong suction. Major PRO 4. The maneuverability of this vacuum is superb and is easy to vacuum. Major PRO 5. The vacuum has a longer than usual cord and no use of extensions would ever be needed. Major PRO 6. I like the fact that if you wanted to disengage the roller brush, you could do so with the push of a button. Major PRO 7. Ther attachments that came with this vacuum gives you a multitude of cleaning options. Major PRO 8. I love the fact that there is an indicator which will tell you if the bag needs replacing WITHOUT opening the door of the vacuum. Major PRO Now the CONS. 1. I'm not thrilled at the location of the on/off switch. I thought they could have located it in the handle, but they did not. Minor CON 2. Closing the door to the changing the bag is going to be a problem down the line. I've read other reviews on this problem and Kenmore didn't seem to think this was important enough to remedy, so they did not. I had to spray the mechanism with WD-40 and give it a sharp blow with my hand, in order for the door panel to engage and close. This may cause problems down the line because, after all, it is plastic, and prone to breakage. That's why I got the 2 year extended warranty. I expect problems with this sooner or later. It's a shame because everything else about this vacuum is exceptional. I guess Kenmore do not read these reviews. They should So the reason I gave this a 4 star and not 5 star rating should be obvious. It's really difficult to close the panel door when you have to change the bag. Perhaps thru opening and closing the door to change the bag will get easier as its being used. Time will tell. Still a very good vacuum though after its first use.

This rose gold vacuum is gorgeous which somehow makes the dreaded chore of vacuuming a little less awful. The vacuum was incredibly easy to put together and I love the 30 foot cord, with my other vacuum I had to unplug and plug back in with every room. It works incredibly well with very strong suction, no complaints whatsoever. I’m so happy to go back to a bagged vacuum. When bagless canister vacuums came out it seemed like such an improvement, but I was always questioning how unhealthy it was for me every time I emptied it. Also, I found myself feeling the need to wash the canister with each use to keep it smelling fresh as I have multiple pets. I love being back to bags, sometimes things are better the first time around. I used to also think bags were a pain, but these look very easy to change and the dirt and dust stays enclosed.

They gave me a vacuum with a US power cord 😭, so even if I use an adapter it trips my kitchen, bedroom etc. USA use 110v unlike in Europe so I don't know why they sold it to me. Or it is just broken from the start but I guess it's because it's from USA

Great suction! Just ordered and got this last night, I ran it over two of my fully carpeted floors and it did a wonderful job picking up debris and leaving them nice and clean. I really like it so far and am looking forward to seeing how much I can vacuum without having to change the bag, that's always the downside of a no bag vacuum is emptying them basically has to be done outside and often, it also means you clean the filter more often so i find them more high maintenance. I have a 3 story house with mostly carpets throughout so most of these stick type vacuums just wont do the job for me, forget about robot vacuums, but dragging around a cannister or an full upright is a real pain. I really enjoy the lift away part of this vacuum for doing the stairs for that reason. I know some have mentioned that the path or the main brush roll size seems smaller not as wide an area than normal vacuums but i prefer it, i have lots of carpet but i also live in a house built in 1970 so there's lots of odd little corners that are hard to get into but not with this one. I especially like the upholstery attachment is wider than most and the detachable wand, as noted i have a funky house from the 70's and my stair steps are quite narrow and thin, I've only ever found the upholstery attachment will do a proper job on the stairs, it takes some elbow grease more than a motorized attachment or the main brush roll but it actually cleans it better, so I'm quite glad the attachment is narrow enough but a little wider than usual for the job. It certainly looks a little less than sturdy, more like a toy, than compared to brands like dyson and what not but i have so far found it very sturdy and not cheap as it looks. I have a very fluffy cat and this thing picked up all her fur, haven't tested the so called no tangle brush roll out yet - i have long hair that sheds - and thats always a pain to clean, I was looking into a vacuum that has an easy to take out and clean brush roll but they are out of my budget so im hoping this one holds up will with a bit of trimming occasionally. Overall I am happy with this purchase, it suits my strange but almost entirely carpeted house and the limitations of trying to clean it.

This is an impressively powerful and beautiful vacuum cleaner. It's completely functional and has giant bags.

I've used this twice and so far so good. Seems to pick everything up on my low pile carpet including cat hair (I have two long haired cats so I need a good vacuum). Sucks better than my previous Shark, but that vacuum was 2-3 years old. Navigates smoothly and easily. Not too big and bulky or heavy. Has a good array of attachments whereas my Shark had none. I'm looking forward to not having to pull hair out of a filthy bagless container and have dust fly everywhere, creating yet another mess to clean. I will update this review after I've had this vacuum for a longer period of time. I will be happy if it maintains its suction strength for at least 3 more years. We'll see. Update: have had for about 9 months so far and still works as well as day 1. Have only had to change the bag once so far (there is an indicator light to tell you when it's full) which is shocking because I have two longhaired cats and vacuum every 2-3 days.

I was really excited to buy this vacuum cleaner as mine has seen better days. It arrived quickly and well packaged, but when I opened the box, I noticed that the plug is for a USA socket. I was very disappointed. I had to return the item, but was given a swift refund with no problems, so although I was disappointed with the vacuum, the company were helpful about the return and refund, which is why I have given 3 stars.
