So – what are we working with here? What’s this cleaner look like for starters?
Eureka has released another yellow and black vacuum cleaner, this time under the C2132B model. This is a lightweight, upright vacuum cleaner, weighing in under 18 pounds and “value priced” at under $200 US.

Who is it for? Commercial or household use- or both?
Designed for commercial use, but also sold in some household markets.

How much does this unit cost?
This unit retails between $175 and $215 US.

It is currently available from Amazon.com for $185 US and that actually includes Free Shipping. (Offer valid at the time of this writing.)

Tell me some of the technical specifications.
From a technical perspective, this unit was designed for large carpeted areas i.e. no bare floors.

With that in mind, it is equipped with a 5-amp motor, 6 different carpet heighs, and some tools for getting dust out of the carpet and air (“E-Z Kleen”). The power cord comes in at just 30 feet long and the cleaning path is the standard 12 inches. This unit also has a bumper to protect furniture and other items that might get in the way of a diligent cleaning lady.

The unit is easy to manuever at under 18 pounds and measures a size of 13 by 14 by 46 inches.

Does it come with a lifetime warranty?
No, a lifetime warranty is not offered. In its place, you get a 1 year warranty from the manufacturer.

What kind of feedback is this model getting?
Mostly good feedback. Users have noted that the C2132B commercial vacuum cleaner bags (actually cups) are easy to find, the units consistently pulls dog hair up from the carpets, it’s good for any simple large carpeted office area, and it just does what it’s supposed to for a vacuum cleaner – that is to say, it cleans the carpets well!

However, the capacity of the unit is not as big as some would like.

Summary:
All in all, this is a no-frills unit that does what it does at a good price. If you’ve been frustrated with the lack of good clean carpets that low priced household vacuum cleaner will get you, you’d do well to spend a little bit more money and purchase a unit like this, which we’d consider more of light commercial vacuum cleaner (note the 5-amp motor and only a 30 foot cord, which are both on the lean side for sure when it comes to commercial vacuum cleaners) or a very heavy duty household vacuum cleaner.
