The Dirt Devil M110009 Reaction Soft Touch is an ideal vacuum cleaner. A part of the Reaction series of vacuum cleaners, the Dirt Devil M110009 comes to you from Dirt Devil, a household name in vacuum cleaners. The dual cyclone air system kicks up quite a storm and is more effective in removing and picking up stubborn dust, dirt and debris than a single stream of air.
This model can clean upholstery, carpets, stairs or just about any place where dirt can hide.
It features the patented D2 technology that provides maximum suction power. It has a powerful 12 amp motor that generates two powerful cyclones of air.
The HEPA filter can clean up close to 100% of pollen, dust mites, dust and similar allergens. Combined with the powerful suction of the vacuum cleaner, the HEPA air filter assures you of an allergen and dust free home.
Its 32 feet power cord and a 9.5 foot long hose equips you with the ability to reach the remotest nook or corner in your home. Its rotating power brush makes it simpler for you to clean uneven and tricky surfaces. A useful accessory is the bare floor tool that is designed to clean bare floors.
The vacuum cleaner has a bagless design, Dust is collected in a dirt cup. The dirt cup can be easily cleaned and you will never have to bother with buying disposable bags.
It also has soft touch material on the bumper and wheels to protect your expensive flooring & furniture from scratches and wear and tear.
Another attractive feature is that there is a 4 year warranty not just on the machine, but also on the motor.
Users opined that the vacuum cleaner worked very well in cleaning carpeted areas. It however did not work as expected on vinyl and linoleum floors. The machine is also a little heavy and difficult to move around.
Although slightly heavy at 23 lbs, the Reaction M110009 is not light on dirt.

Very good Vacuum

Reviewer: GBK25,
I have had this vacuum for over a year now and it still works just as well as the day I bought it. You will be amazed by how much dirt it picks up that you don't even realize is there. This vacuum is also very easy to clean. Very good product at a good price.
Disappointed from day 1!

I searched and searched for a new vacuum. I was so excited when I purchased this one. The day it came I took it out and tried it immediately. I was disappointed from the very first time I used it. It's suction (if you want to call it that) was almost nonexistent. So I used it regularly, because I had nothing else and it only got worse. It got louder and louder and it started to smell like the belt was burning. We replaced the belt and it started to smell again the very next time we used it. So we checked the belt yet again and it was all in tact and fine, but the vacuum was still a pain in the rear. We've contacted the manufacturer about the warranty and were told we need to take to a repair shop, but the closest one that works on this brand is an hour away. I am completely frustrated with this product and will never purchase one like it again. It shuts itself off suddenly and won't come back on for days at a time. This is the worst $100 ever spent. Please don't waste your money.

Worst product I ever purchased. Had it replaced, then repaired, and I finally dumped it. All in one year!
Didn't last 9 months

I have to admit that I hated this vacuum from the get-go. It is far too heavy, super loud and the hose is a royal pain to use. I'm sure that some of the issues of this vacuum is do to with having to use it in a relatively small apartment, but even so, the hose is so short that there is so little room to maneuver it, and once you add the "pipe" well, it's this crazy dance as you try not to pull the vacuum over and try to get to the nooks and crannies. Anyway, because it was so difficult to use, we avoided using it at all costs, so it was never used very often. Yet it still only lasted 9 months. Huge disappointment all round.
Didn't last a year

Reviewer: a cure fan,
This vacuum worked flawlessly for about 3 months. Then one day, it simply would not turn on. I opened the bottom and did not see anything causing a clog, so I closed it and put it away for a week, afterwards, deciding to to try it one more time, convinced I would have to buy another vacuum. It actually worked, just like day one. But this didn't last very long. A few weeks later, I noticed a decreased ability in picking up anything. The filters were clean but it it simply had lost it's pick up power. I kept on using it for a few more months, not particularly pleased with its performance since I knew it wasn't picking up everything but not wanting to spend another $100.00 on yet another vacuum. I do not have pets and I keep a clean house.
After a total of 9 months, the motor has ceased again, unexpectedly and has not come back on again. I had a Bissell before this one for only about the same amount of time and that went in the garbage. This one will join that Bissell.
I am convinced vacuum manufacturers are building these bagless uprights to breakdown within 1 year so you have to spend money again and again. There is no more quality control in this industry. Planned obsolescence is being designed into these units so they break down and they are not worth it to have fixed. Terrible for our landfills I might add. This is not an environmentally friendly way of thinking on the part of these corporations but one of greed. Not sure what I will do now. Probably a Kenmore since my old one lasted 20 years!
If you wish to continually throw away your hard earned money time and time again, then buy one of these cheap, under $100.00 bagless uprights. I for one am not supporting these companies anymore. When people stop buying their products, then maybe they will get the hint.
