Eureka Optima Lightweight Upright Vacuum: Model 437AZ
![]() |
The Eureka 437AZ Optima Lightweight Upright Vacuum Cleaner with the unique Power Paw feature makes it much easier for you to clean up after your pets. The Eureka 437AZ is a powerful and lightweight vacuum cleaner that is easy to handle and move around.
Versatile in design and flexible enough to cater to various cleaning requirements. It is an upright and bagless model with a built in dirt cup. You can forever dispense with buying disposable bags.
Features & Performance
The vacuum cleaner is extremely lightweight and packs the power of a heavier upright vacuum. If you have a large house that needs frequent cleaning, then you can consider this vacuum as it is easy to maneuver and carry around.
It is powered by a 12 amp motor that provides good suction power.
It is an easy to use unit with the controls placed very ergonomically. You can reach most inaccessible places with its easy to use design. However the length of the power cord, at just 20 feet is slightly disappointing.
It also has a number of useful attachments. It has multi-surface cleaning capabilities. You can switch easily between cleaning the carpet to cleaning the floor with the on/off brush roll.
Pet owners are happy with the vacuum as they feel it cleans up pet hair very easily. It has a unique Power Paw TM feature for cleaning stubborn pet hair.
One significant draw back reported by users is with the overall usability of the dirt cup. The dirt cup is very small and fills up very easily. It would also be a good idea to keep a couple of spare filters handy when you are cleaning a large area.
Because the dirt cup fills up easily, the unit tends to become very noisy within a short duration of use.
It is equipped with a HEPA filtration system that cleans up to 99.9 % of dust, mites and similar allergens.
Summary
The fact remains that the Optima 437AZ is not very expensive. It is easy to use and can be easily stored in a small closet. It has a good suction power and overall performance has been reported to be good. If you have a small family and are living in a small apartment that is not very heavily carpeted then you can definitely consider buying this unit.
