Review on Husqvarna 967983806 Vacuum Cleaner Orange by Shug Quinn

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Powerful and Compact UPDATE

Great vacuum cleaner with lots of power. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it actually performed given its low power rating. Obviously the turbo engine is really important. UPDATE: I was finally able to use it to vacuum my truck after the winter. It did its job well, but you could tell the motor didn't have the suction power of my other wet or dry vacuums. So I replaced my bezel with a 4. It picks up dry dirt very well, but I was concerned about water pick-up due to its low power rating. This turned out to be no problem. I used it on a big puddle of melting snow in my garage. It filled to overflowing in a few minutes. Usually vacuum cleaners of this size have an output of 4-5 hp. However, this vacuum seems to be just as effective. A dedicated mop head would have been nice, but the included mop head worked just fine. It includes a very handy bucket handle that flips open to lift the base for emptying. I really like the wheels, two large stationary ones in the back and two small swiveling ones in the front. Much easier to move than those with small swivel wheels on all four corners. It comes with a fine dust bag and a traditional filter, but I was surprised that it didn't have a foam filter to catch liquids. This is because the filter is actually a PET filter which can be washed and therefore works with liquids. One accessory I would really like to see is a special wet pick scraper. However, you can buy them relatively cheaply at most hardware stores. The overall working length is unique compared to others I have used. You get a total of 33-1/2'. For me, this is very practical because you don't have to carry the device all the time. 1000W = 1.34HP Cable: 18ft. Hose: 10 feet. Extension tubes: 43 inches. ADVANTAGES: Compact design. Strong suction power. Long aluminum tubes. Very long power cord. Very long hose. Practical bucket handle. or dry pickup. - Well designed wheels. - Lightweight, easy to move. CONS: (others may notice) - No dedicated mop. - Hard to find replacement fine filter. One of the MINUS does not bother me and does not affect my rating.

Pros
  • Semi-Automatic Filter Cleaning - Quick and easy cleaning of the filter cartridge with reverse air pulses.
Cons
  • Quick start guide
