Sooo quiet! - LaLa, May 20, 2008

The vacuum is very quiet for a vacuum cleaner, has two levels "quiet and very quiet". I have never been able to hear the phone ring while the vacuum was in use before this model - wow! The suction is good - gets up everything my 7 yr. old spills and the cat hair. The cats don't even leave the room when operating the vacuum. For carpets I still like the upright vacuum better for deeper cleaning. But I use the Electrolux EL6985B for in between cleaning of the carpets. It is light weight and easy to manuver. I would highly recommend this product for hard surface floors and light duty cleaning on carpets. The tools are nice and stay on the wand. I have cleaned my ceiling fans and base boards with ease. Great little vacuum.

Great Vacuum, Very Quiet (4.5 star) - Gary Oates, May 14, 2008

First of all, I got this vacuum from a Z-seller named Ace Photo Digital in 7 business days (and I have a FPO AP address) and only paid standard shipping. Amazon takes a month to get to me a book with standard shipping and Ace Photo Digital takes a week to get to me a vacuum. What gives Amazon? Amazon, please contact Ace and find out what is their secret. Your shipping guys could take some notes from Ace Photo Digital.

For the price, and according to the Consumer Reports reviews, your getting the most bang for your buck in this price category for a canister vacuum. This canister vacuum is great and very quiet as well. It is also very light which I recommend for someone who doesn't have a lot of muscle strength and has some good features as well (check out the Electrolux website to see/hear what I'm talking about). I have used it a few times and have noticed some very minor flaws. For one, the suction on this canister is slightly less powerful than other vacuums that I previously have had. However, it still picks up everything in sight. Another minor flaw (that I wished Electrolux would have given me the option for on this model) is that the Harmony only has two wheels. While it moves around quite well, I personally prefer four wheels that other models have. Other than that, I have nothing bad to say about it and it certainly beats out my previous upright Hoover and the ear plugs I had to wear when I turned it on.

Good Value-Right Price - Thomas Berman, May 01, 2008

We've had a Miele vacuum for ten years and bought this as a replacement.

It is a very good piece of equipment. Reasonably quick, good suction, pretty light, great filtration system (our cat followed us around the house with it) a reasonable set of attachments (the brush attachment comes off easily). In short, it does the job very well and costs less than 1/3 of what it would cost for the new Miele.

Roddy Review - Happy user, Apr 29, 2008

The vacuum was received as adbvertised in excellant condition. Initial use of the product was easy with excellant instructions. The vacuum performs as well, if not better, than the "older" one it replaced, which I was worried about. I would recommend this unit, without reservation, to any potential individual who is looking for an excellant machine at a good price.

Harmony Ultra Quiet Lives up to its name - E. I. Nelson, Apr 23, 2008

This is from the perspective of a work-at-home husband who used to go crazy when his wife was vacuuming.
I am barely aware that she is vacuuming in my office when I am on a business call! This machine is incredible.

My wife loves it because it is much more powerful than our previous vac. She only needs to make one sweep as opposed to multiple passes to pick up everything - and that is on the low-power setting.

Small footprint for storing; light; agile; and well made.
