 The one thing that a lot of people who have vacuum cleaners complain about it the weight of them.  Some of the plastic vacuum cleaners out there weigh more than 20 pounds, and are really bulky, too.

What Oreck’s claim to fame is a vacuum that is light weight.  At only 8 pounds, this Oreck XL2000RHB 8LB Comm Up Vacuum  is going to be easy to use and easy to move, making vacuuming a lot more enjoyable.

Oreck 8 Pound Commercial Upright Vacuum Specifications:

• Type of Vacuum: Upright
• Cleaning Path: 12 inches wide
• Dust Collection: Top-fill bags
• Attachments: None
• Weight: 8 Pounds
• Warranty: One year commercial warranty

If you are straining to vacuum, you probably don’t do it very often.  If your vacuum is too heavy for you, you need an Oreck.

At only 8 pounds, the major selling point for this vacuum is that it is so light weight.  Even a child is going to be able to lift this vacuum (and use it, too).

The Oreck brand is well known for being a vacuum that is going to last for many years. One reviewer gave the vacuum a five star review along with this story about his old Oreck.

I had an old Oreck vac and it finally needed a new motor after 25 years.

For those who are elderly and have trouble bending over, you will be happy to know that you won’t have to strain to turn the vacuum on, because the on/off switch is on the top of the handle.

Cleaning every inch of carpet is easy to do with this vacuum, because the head of the vacuum is low to the ground and thin enough to fit under a lot of furniture that you normally couldn’t get a vacuum under.  This is going to save you time because you won’t have to move furniture around anymore.

Like every vacuum cleaner, there are some downsides to this machine.  One of them has to do with the vacuum bags.  This machine is a top-fill machine, so you aren’t going to lose power when the vacuum bag starts to fill up.  You may, however, get a bit of a surprise when you go to find vacuum bags and look at the price tag.   The bags are some of the most expensive vacuum bags out there.

The Oreck XL2000RHB 8LB Comm Up Vacuum isn’t going to win any beauty contests in the  near future.  Sure, it comes in a snazzy red color, but overall, it isn’t much to look at.

Will Your Oreck XL 2000RHB Float To The Top?

For about $250, you can get a commercial vacuum into your home, which is easy to use and light weight. The Oreck XL2000RHB 8LB Comm Up Vacuum is going to be a good choice if you want to just vacuum.

If you want a vacuum with attachments, you might want to consider getting a hand vacuum to do that job and keep the Oreck.
