 Great Little Vacuum Jan 03, 2008
By Bankrbill
I can not tell you how much time and effort I have spent in looking for a small and lightweight vacuum. I just wanted something to touch up in between more through cleanings with my central vacuum. I have a Shark cordless sweeper that I really like. Tho it doesnt hold a charge. So it couldnt be counted on. So this is why I started my quest for a corded vac. I originally bought a Bissell 3108 stick vac. I purchased it from the dealer where I got my central vac. It seemed to be what I wanted. But after using a couple of times I was not happy. It was too hard to clean the bagless filter. It also tipped over very easy and I was afraid I would break the cheap plastic handle. So I returned the Bissell. I will say it was great except for these 2 issues. I then bought this Sanyo from the same dealer. Twice as much money...but twice the vacuum. It has more suction than the Bissell. More than I really need for a qucik touch up. Its quieter and has a bad. Plus it has a HEPA like filter. The Bissell left a smell in the air after usage. So far this Sanyo has not done that. The Sanyo is easy to use. The roller brush is air driven and tends to bog done on my heavy carpet. But it has so much suction it picks things up anyway. This can be a problem as there is not a suction regulator and I find that I have a difficult time cleaning throw rugs as it tries to suck them off the floor. My only other complaint would be the brush roller. And I should mention the cord is 20 foot and I wish it was longer. I have come to realize that no lightweight vac has all the features I want. The Sanyo comes the closest. I am very happy with it at.

 Does a good job Sep 21, 2007
By D. Albers
I have a few cats and a dog. So far I have been fairly happy with this vacuum. I will say that it doesn't do as great of a job on small area rugs as it did when it was new. It seems to get clogged up fairly quickly and when I go to do the area rugs the hair/dust ball up and deposit on the rug. In fact it hardly picks up anything on the rugs no matter what setting I use. It does do a good job on the hard floors, it does blow things around quite a bit, but I think most all vaccumms will do this. The definate downfall is the bag. It is a pretty small collection bag that, for my use, needs to be changed often. But overall I am happy with the vacuum and it does a good job. My complaits as I said are the lack of picking up on rugs, the blowing around and the bag.

Great little vac Jun 01, 2008
By adamalicia2007
"clean freak"
I love this vac! It is the second one that i have owned. The first one died after 12 years. And the best price was at Amazon. Downsides would be the bags are small so they have to be changed often.
But this vac picks up cat hair, dog hair and stray litter pebbles. the attachments work great for the furniture and the fact that it becomes a handheld makes it easy to do the stairs. (so my husband tells me!)
great for small places, no carpet Jun 24, 2009
By K. Shin
This vacuum is small, lightweight yet strong and as the name says, it's 3-in-1 (more like 2-in-1 really). You can use it as an upright cleaner or detach the main body and hold it in your had, while vacuuming with or without the wand attachment. The brush roller is suction type, not powered, so will not really clean carpet well. As such, I think this unit is best used in small apt/condo/home settings where the floor is non-carpeted. The bag inside is small but it's not a problem in small places. A 10-pk replacement bags is not too expensive on ebay. I like that its bagged and not bagless. I think bagless started as a fad years ago and kinds just stuck. Aside from your home, it makes vacuuming your car easy as well. It loses a star b/c the exhaust vent is somewhat awkwardly located and it actually blows out towards the floor. It would've made more sense if it blew at least parallel to the floor or even at an upward angle.
 A poor performer and a poor value Jan 27, 2009
By Andy Baird
"-------"
A clever design is crippled by the lack of a crucial feature: a powered beater brush. The Transformax 180's air-powered brush is worthless, because it stops rotating the second it touches carpet, which of course is exactly when you need it most.
I've owned this vac for three years, but two years ago I bought a $40 Swivel Sweeper, and since then the Transformax 180 has languished in the closet. Believe it or not, the Swivel Sweeper--with no suction, but with POWERED brushes--picks up more dirt and hair than the Transformax 180 ever did.
Considering that the Transformax is much less effective than the Swivel Sweeper but costs five times as much, that makes this product a spectacularly bad value. When you add the fact that the Swivel Sweeper is cordless, relatively quiet, and stores in a small fraction of the space required by the Transformax... well, it's just no contest.
