Westinghouse WHVC02SB
VerifiedMPNs: 19134 and WHVC02SB1 review
Seemed ok at first, fairly lightweight and very good suction, even on carpet. But this was where the good points ended. The cons: it is exceptionally loud, I had to wear ear muffs to use it. The handle is on the wrong side, which leaves you picking it up by the hose. The filter/bagless canister fill super fast so you have to empty them constantly and it loses suction with the smallest amount of dust in the filter. Only comes with 2 attachments, both broke immediately and I had to buy extras. After less than 6 uses, it lost suction entirely, then just died. Bought from Appliances Online, who were uncharacteristically rude and unhelpful throughout the warranty claim process, but eventually was able to return it. Still waiting on a refund.
Follow-up · The upholstery attachment broke (the soft part that protects against scratching came off on the first use). The handle is fine, just like any other barrel vacuum I suppose. It needed to be emptied after pretty much every use, otherwise it would lose suction.
Purchased in at Appliances Online for $165.
