Eureka FilterAir Vacuum Review

With a toddler at home along with two shedding dogs, it’s easy for our floors to become covered in dirt, pet hair and of course, goldfish crumbs. My current vacuum cleaner just isn’t getting the job done. I have been looking for a new vacuum that not only works great, but gets the job done quickly and is within our budget. Eureka offered to send me their FilterAir Vacuum to put to the test.

About the Eureka FilterAir Upright Vacuum

Your home will smell fresh and clean with this bagless vacuum sealed with HEPA Filtration that captures 99.97% of dust and allergens. Power Paw features help reduce odors and allergens while the On/Off Brushroll Switch picks up dust and allergens from carpets and bare floors.

Features Whirlwind Cyclonic Technology to maintain suction power while you clean your floors. Also includes Antimicrobial Dust Cup and Bristles with On-Guard to protect brushroll bristles and dust cup from odors caused by bacteria.

 

I have been using the FilterAir vacuum for several weeks now and I love it! With my old vacuum, I spent hours vacuuming daily. The FilterAir gets the job done much quicker than other vacuums. There is no need to repeatedly vacuum the same area as it cleans perfectly the first time, every time.

We have tile in our kitchen, laminate in the bathrooms, hardwood in the living room and carpet in the bedrooms. The FilterAir does a outstanding job of cleaning all of our floor surfaces. Prior to the FilterAir, I found myself reaching for a different cleaning tool for each room. I love that this vacuum cleans offers versatility by cleaning virtually any floor surface.

 

Mom Approved Features

• Easy to Maneuver - It turns corners easily and is able to clean hard to reach areas  such as corners, under chairs and beneath the coffee table.
• Bagless – Saves money on the need to replace bags and makes it easy to clean.
• Environmentally Friendly – No bags required
• Long 30 Ft Cord – I can easily vacuum an entire room or two without the need to access a new outlet.
• Versatility- This vacuum is very easy to switch from bare floors to carpet.
• Great for Allergy Sufferers – I love that the HEPA Filtration eliminates 99.97% of dust and allergens!

• Easy to Clean – The flip-bottom dust cup is so convenient and easy! With the press of a button, the bottom pops open, releasing all of the dirt directly into the trash can. This is one of my favorite features!
• Power Paw with Riser Visor – This is a wonderful feature for people with pets! This power brush removes pet hair and dander from chair backs, sofa’s, pet beds as well as comforters in an instant!
• Telescopic Wands, Crevice & Dusting Brush – Easy to clean tight corners and other hard to reach places.
• Long Lasting Filters – Filters will last from 6-12 months!

The FilterAir is a great vacuum! I love how much easier it is for me to maintain clean floors. With my FilterAir, I actually look forward to cleaning! The only downfall is the weight. At 19 pounds, it can be difficult to carry up and down the stairs everyday. Although it’s heavy, it is still easy to maneuver. Overall, I am very happy with Eureka’s Upright FilterAir Vacuum and would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a great-working vacuum at an affordable price.

The Eureka FilterAir vacuum may be purchased exclusively at BestBuy or BestBuy online for $169.99

Original Senseo Coffee Maker Review and Giveaway

With so many coffee makers on the market today, shopping for the best coffee machine can be quite a difficult task to achieve. Each coffee maker is made with their own unique features but they all claim to be top of the line. Luckily, I’ve discovered the fuss-free coffee machine, Senseo- a quick and easy way to enjoy a delicious, hot cup of gourmet coffee in just a matter of seconds. 

Senseo is designed by Phillips, so I knew right away this was a product that would not disappoint.Their patented Senseo system uses the perfect balance of coffee and water. Senseo is powered by 1450 watts and features a special mild pressure spray head to brew the perfect cup of coffee every single time.

When our Senseo Original Machine arrived, I was immediately impressed by its sleek, modern design. Senseo is different from your traditional coffee makers and glass pots because all you need with Senseo is a mess-free coffee pod, a little water and your favorite coffee coffee cup.

Many people would agree with me that the worst part of brewing coffee is the messy cleanup of the loose coffee grounds. Senseo eliminates the need for cleanup by using packaged coffee pods. I like the fact that I have the option to choose between one or two cups of coffee. If I want just one cup, I can use the single pod holder. If I prefer two cups, I just use the deeper pod holder.

Preparation is convenient and simple, even if you are still half asleep. Upon waking in the morning, I press the on button. Then, I fill the water reservoir, add one or two pods and close the lid. Once the red indicator light has stopped blinking, I know it is now time to brew my coffee. After I place my favorite coffee mug on the base, I press the one cup button and in about 30 seconds, my home brewed gourmet coffee is ready to be enjoyed. Another great feature is the timed automatic shut off. I cannot tell you the number of times I have left the house and forgotten to turn off my coffee maker. Senseo will shut off after one hour, which is perfect for any coffee connoisseur.

As a busy, sleep-deprived mom, I certainly appreciate the fuss-free, virtually non-existent cleanup. Once I’ve finished brewing my coffee, I just open the lid and discard the used coffee pod. Finally, no grinds spilling all over the place, no washing and bleaching the old stained coffee pot- just dishwasher safe, removable parts, I love it!

The one disadvantage I encountered with the Senseo Coffee Machine is that it does not accommodate taller coffee cups or travel mugs. Although you can brew two eight-ounce cups at once, if you prefer a taller cup, you would have to transfer the coffee from the two eight-ounce cups to your taller cup. I did, however, find that a taller cup could be used by removing the metal plate from the base. But even then, you would need to hold the cup to prevent it from tipping over and spilling.

Senseo has a variety of coffee pods including flavored and unflavored coffee. I had the  pleasure of experiencing three flavors – Breakfast Blend, Dark Roast Blend and Kona Blend. All three flavors were smooth and full of flavor and each filled the air with a delightful aroma. While they were all satisfying to the last drop, my favorite was the Dark Roast Blend as it offered a stronger, richer, bold flavor.

There was one unexpected, but appreciated, feature I found in the Senseo. Unlike standard coffee machines, and similar to an espresso machine, Senseo produces a thin layer of froth called crema that tops each cup of coffee. I love the crema and found it to be an added morning bonus to my new favorite Senseo coffee.

In addition to making a great-tasting cup of coffee, Senseo takes up far lass space than most coffee machines. It’s great for the home, office, dorm and I’m even considering moving ours to my bedroom! Senseo is ideal for anyone wants a quick gourmet cup of coffee without the mess or waiting that comes along with other coffee machines.
