My review of the Eureka Powermite 930A

Well I must say for $19 not a bad vacuum so lets get started.
[Pros]
-On the quiet side but still kinda loud
-A retractable cord
-A step button for the power and cord retract
-Lots of suction for such a small vac
-Handle suction control
[Cons]
-A very tiny dust bag
-A bit on the cheap side
-A useless combo tool
-A Rubber flap in place of a proper brush on the floor tool
-Clogs easily
-And It doesn't accept standard attachments

So in conclusion it's not that bad but not very good but it is what you would expect for $19 plus tax.

It's a neat looking little machine. What is the clear blue thing on top for? It seems like when Walmart had them advertised after Thanksgiving it was called a Mighty Mite. Maybe I misread it.

I do wonder why they made that combo dusting and crevice tool like that. Crevice tools are noisy so I wouldn't like having to have it on to do the dusting.

I notice a lot of canisters are going with cheaper little attachments, not just the compact and cheaper ones. I could understand if tools like that were on a small upright or something that was mainly meant for carpet and floor cleaning, but not a machine such as a canister. For example the new Kenmore Power-Mate canisters that have an 'integrated' small dusting brush on the handle with nylon bristles and a small crevice tool that stores on the bottom of the hose handle. I think they should have stayed with the tools that the lower end models have on board which are more useful on an all-around machine.

That clear blue thing is the bag indicator
