Panasonic MC-UL675 AeroSpin Bagless - an honest review 
2008-05-04
We have an old Panasonic bagged vacuum that continues to serve us well, so I decided to take a chance on this vacuum despite some negative reviews.
All of the bad things others have mentioned are true. The vacuum is bulky, heavy, and prone to tipping. If you're not very strong and have to use a vacuum on multiple floors, this isn't the one. The 15" cleaning path is great for open spaces, but makes it impossible to get under some furniture (e.g., end tables). The QuickDraw hose is a little hard to remove and the turbo brush attachment for it works until you put too much pressure on it, so use it lightly. The adjustable-height handle sometimes slips out of the hole and slides to the last setting.
Now for the good points. It does a great job sucking dirt out of rugs and it will raise the nap on older rugs. It is fairly powerful, but is relatively quiet compared to some other vacuums. The automatic cord rewind is a nice feature, but we'll see if it still works in 2-3 years. The hose has a very long reach. I can do all the stairs without moving the vacuum from the bottom step. The length of the cord is adequate, allowing us to clean adjacent rooms. Cleaning the dirt cup is very easy and much neater than changing a bag or emptying our old Hoover bagless. The auto carpet height adjustment works well and the vacuum does OK on bare floors, but I haven't tried it on our hardwood. The electronic dirt sensor seems to be doing something, but I'm not sure if it's a gimmick. It does have a headlight - some descriptions say it doesn't.
With all its flaws, I would hope that Panasonic goes back to the drawing board to redesign this vacuum. If it were just a little smaller and lighter, it would be perfect. I purchased it for $120 on a Gold Box special, so I'm pleased with it for that price.
Really nice powerful machine

I'm extremely impressed with this machine. The design is smart with the filter being kept clean, I have had it for about 6 months and the thing still picks up like day one.
The cord is a little shorter than my old Hoover, but plenty for my house. I recommend this vacuum, it's one of the best I've ever used.
Poor design

Panasonic MC-UL675 AeroSpin Bagless Upright Vacuum Cleaner with Dirt Sensor, Sherbert Blue
I chose this vacuum since our last Panasonic vacuum lasted over 15 years with little maintainance, cleaning afer a family of four. I have now had this vacuum for six months and I am disappointed by how poorly designed this vacuum has turned out to be. First, it is quite heavy and difficult to transport up and down the stairs. Pushing it around is a workout. After several months and a little breaking in, it is unable to stand upright on its own and must be left leaning against a surface since it is very top heavy and falls backward at the slightest touch. The latch for pushing to release the dirt door broke off almost immediately. The brush attachments fall out of their holders and have to be stored seperately. It is easily clogged by any moderate sized paper or dirt. The only redeaming features are that it is effective at getting up the pet hair from our dog (labrador) and cat, the retractable cord works well, and the handle is easily adjusted in height so that any member of the family can vacuum with the handle at the correct height. The dirt sensor light is just a gizmo with no real value. I would not recommend buying this vacuum.
Best vacuum ever 2008-04-15
This is the best vacuum I ever purchased!
The dirt sensor is great and it finds all the hidden dirt I cannot see.
If you have pets, you need this vacuum, the anti-static dirt cap and the air turbine attachment are fantastic.
A great product from a cool brand. Bravo Panasonic!

Love this vacuum. Shipped very secure. Has a great suction and love the bag-less feature and dirt light indicator.
VERY heavy 2008-05-22
Does what it should, but extremely heavy. I won't be toting this baby from one level of my house to another, which makes it only one third as useful as it could be. Definitely the heaviest upright I have ever owned.

Been needing a good vacuum for a long time...but wasn't gonna spend the big bucks on certain over-rated vacuum systems - or on any of those run of the mill cheapo's that you can buy at any of the discount stores. So, one day I popped up the amazon site and found the panasonic MC-UL675...at a great price. Hmmm, would this be one of those cheapos too? but panasonic has usually been good to me...besides I really liked the automatic power cord rewind feature. So, I bought one...and it is no cheapo. It feels sturdy/solid when in use, gets stuph out of the carpets that I had no idea was in them, and emptying the junk collector is simple and straightforward. So...ya need a good vacuum? buy one of these.
HEAVY, but seems to clean good 2008-05-22
We needed something for a few carpeted rooms and did not want to spend a truck load of money but wanted some degree of quality. We have a Hoover "windtunnel" we have used for 5-6 yrs. and love it. This cleaner is almost 3x the weight of that one. As far as cleaning goes, I guess it did the job...the green light finally came on! Unfair to rate it with soooo little use so take cleaning comments with a grain of salt. The WEIGHT thing, however, is legitimate...you don't have to use it for long to arrive at the conclusion that it IS heavy. Happy shopping!
Adequate for the money 2008-05-22
My vaccum cleaner of many years died and I wanted to buy-some-time before purchasing another high-end model. I saw this Panasonic AeroSpin on Amazon's daily deal and hoped it would suit my purpose. It is exactly what I thought it would be: a CHEAP vaccum cleaner. It is top heavy and tips over very easily which makes using the hoses difficult. The retractable cord stopped retracting after 3 uses and the hand-tool didn't work right out of the box (there doesn't seem to be enough power for the hand tool). However, the suction is pretty good and I do like the way the bagless canister empties from the bottom, right into your trash can at the push of a button. For the money, it was not a bad purchase, but I will buy something better as soon as finances allow.
Don't waste your money

I was very disappointed in this vacuum. It wouldn't even pick up a grain of rice on very low carpet nor would it pick up a piece of course salt from a soft pretzel on the bare floor....and this is brand new; I can hardly imagine what it will pick up in months to come. It is very heavy and awkward and tips over easily. What a waste of money.........
