Kenmore BU1017 Powerful Bagged Upright Vacuum Cleaner with 3-Motor

Best for

Best for households with wall-to-wall carpet and heavy pet shedding that prioritize deep cleaning over lightweight convenience; skip if you need to clean stairs or prefer a quiet, easy-to-carry vacuum.

What buyers say

Most owners agree this vacuum provides exceptionally strong suction that deep-cleans carpets and traps allergens in its bagged system better than many pricier models. The main trade-off is its heavy, loud operation and the risk of needing a costly brush roller replacement if used heavily on carpets.

Loved by buyers

  • •Its suction power outclasses many uprights, pulling up embedded dirt and pet hair on the first pass.
  • •The bagged design with HEPA filtration is a relief for allergy sufferers, containing dust and dander without messy canister emptying.
  • •The extra-long 35-foot cord means you can clean large rooms without switching outlets.

Buyer concerns

  • •The vacuum's weight (around 22 pounds) and loud noise make it tiring to maneuver, especially on stairs or for smaller users.
  • •Stretching the hose more than a few inches causes the vacuum to tip over, making above-floor and stair cleaning frustrating.
