Eureka Quick Shift Omniverse Upright Vacuum
Verdict
The Eureka Quick Shift Omniverse Upright Vacuum is a lightweight, easy-to-use upright that delivers top-tier pickup on hard floors and carpets, excellent hair handling, and strong filtration at a much lower price than premium rivals. Its Quick Shift under-furniture feature and lift-off canister with useful tools make it a versatile whole-home cleaner, with the main tradeoffs being a smaller dust bin and only average deep-cleaning power on medium-pile carpet.
