My most recent client has had 3 of those blue Kenmore Intuition canisters. I only use it at that house because the hose is standard size and its easier to use than the terrible Dyson DC41 and awful Sebo Airbelt D4 that she says. CAN'T STAND THE SEBO I'd have so much pleasure using it for target practice or putting it in the dumpster. But then I wouldn't able to use as a blockade, the next time I wash steps. Hmmmm, decisions, decisions, LOL!!! However I can only use 2 of her Kenmore Intuition vacuums on the hardfloors and upholstery. The connection to reconnect back into power nozzle has broken on 2 of her units. That entire power nozzle package with combo bare floor brush in MY OPINION IS HORRENDOUS!! Power nozzle is awkward to manuever and doesn't compare in cleaning to one of the other CenTec power nozzles. The bare floor brush is awful. Two diagonal measly strips of bristles is a joke and don't clean good.
I have no problem storing my canister. Powerheads can store on their ends standing up and most canisters have a park/ storage clip to slide on. Disconnect hose from wands while storing and I find my canisters are just as easy if not more so than uprights. The power nozzle wand is very thin and leaning up against a wall, a power nozzle vacuum wand won't be in your way at all. An upright with bulky bag compartment and taller floor nozzle is much more difficult.
I've put my Hoover PowerMax canister vacuums up against several other uprights and personally in my experience it outgrooms and outcleans them. In 1996, Consumer Reports rated my vacuum as cleaning "Very Good" and it rated another canister and some others as "Excellent." Through my business I have tried some of the units that CR rated better and I went out to my car to get my Hoover PowerMax canister to further deep clean all those homes and get the job done for real!! The other vacs weren't cutting the mustard!!! I change bag, clean filters, check belts and service all of my clients vacuums but still MUCH happier with performance of the Hoover. I've been hard pressed to find a vacuum that beats it!!! I think a vacuum that cleans as good would be the Simplicity Verve, Royal Lexon SR30020 and Riccar Tandem Air upright.
