The Panasonic MC-UL675 AeroSpin™ Bagless Upright Vacuum has a number of innovative features such as the proprietary Aerospin™ technology. To quote the company, the Panasonic MC-UL675 vacuum promises to take the guesswork out of vacuuming.
Features & Performance
The MC-UL675 is an upright cyclonic vacuum cleaner that is powered by a 12 amp motor. One of the unique features in this vacuum is the built in protection system that shuts down the motor in case the machine ever happens to overheat or clog. This prevents a motor burn-out and ensures its safety.
However, chances of the MC-UL675 getting clogged are truly very slim. Its AeroSpin™ technology provides you with a clean filter and powerful suction, every-time you take out the vacuum for cleaning.
Quite simply, when you pull out the 24 foot power cord to plug it into an outlet, the power-cord spins the filter and helps to keep it clean. The cleaning of the filter takes place every-time before you start vacuuming as it is triggered by pulling out the power cord. This not only ensures that you vacuum has maximum suction but also ensures a longer filter life.
The dirt sensor and performance indicator at the base of the vacuum cleaner are lit up when the vacuum senses dirt and when it senses that the part of your carpet is clean.
Its anti-static dirt cup ensures that pet hair, dirt and other debris doesn't stick to the dirt cup when you empty it. Just a press of the button and the dirt cup is empty.
Other features such as the automatic carpet height adjustment,15 inch cleaning nozzle, and the air turbine attachment make vacuuming a breeze.
Once you are through vacuuming, just press a button on the main unit and vacuum reels in the 24 foot power cord automatically. You don't need to wind up the power cord.
Summary
Undoubtedly the smart looking MC-UL675 is packed with features that promise to make vacuuming more user-friendly and efficient. We may have to wait and see if the AeroSpin™ feature helps to keep the filter clean over a period of time. The motor protection feature will ensure a longer life for your motor.
For a vacuum that has innovative features, user opinion seems to be divided right down the middle with as many users satisfied with the vacuum cleaner as the number of users who were disappointed.
Users feel that the vacuum is top heavy and tends to topple over very easily. Moving it up or down the stairs isn't easy as it is moderately heavy. Users feel that the dirt sensor does not really work. Probably there are a few issues that need to be addressed in a vacuum cleaner that otherwise has so many promising features.

I purchased this vacuum based on the reduced price at that time but really wish I had not done that. It's pretty bulky and heavy with average cleaning power. And personally I really don't care for the bagless design. A dust storm is created every time I try to empty the container. I wouldn't recommend this vacuum to my friends and relatives.
GREAT VACUUM CLEANER!

I bought this vacuum for its many features and brand reputation. I was very disappointed in both. The vacuum is very top heavy and tips over at the slightess touch. I have a few bruises and my walls a few scratches and dents! The retractable cord performs sporadically. The dirt cup needs to be emptied more often than I would have thought based on its size, but the vacuum begins to lose suction power if you don't empty often. I have tile and hardwood floors and the vacuum does not perform as well on them as indicated that it would. You have to make many passes to pick up the debris.
The attachments are ok, but do not stay in place on the vacuum when not in use. I hot glued the power roller holder onto the handle!!!
I wish I had returned it when I purchased it. My search for a decent upright vacuum will continue.
Too bad the units is SO unstable needs a recall!

Reviewer: J. Phillips,
I went through 3 other vacuums before buying this one and I am completely happy with it EXCEPT .........and this is a HUGE EXCEPT: The unit is so unstable it tips over constantly. Very little tension in the wrong direction with the cord or hose and the unit is tipped over. I don't know if this is bad engineering or it just needs to be heavier but it falls into walls and makes a mark- falls over onto kids, dogs, cats you name it. In view of this issue- which I really feel is a safety issue I would not recommend the unit. Next time I will find one with the positive features I do like but it has to be stable.
Hoped for more from Panasonic

My experience with Panasonic has been pretty good. Unfortunately, they let me down with this item. It's just not well designed. I do NOT recommend it
main issues:
The cord pulley system absolutely stinks and looses it's tension after a month.
It's not balanced well and tips over very easily.
The dirt cup clips don't clip anymore so i've had several bad dirty accidents trying to empty it.
And now, after about a year, the damn hose just came apart. literally ripped open right where the attachments go. So, it's done... Very, very disappointed.
However, it is quiet, I'll give it that much.
