Has anyone checked out the Eureka website lately? They only have a select few canisters listed now. I remember not too long ago they had a full line of canisters shown including the Oxygen. My question is, did they discontinue these vacuums? I know that the Oxygen is now being made under the Electrolux name, but what happened to all the others?

Target actually has a Eureka canister model called the Air Extreme that is very good. It somehow made it into my shopping cart one day! I don't like the dusting brush and bought a full sized one at a vacuum shop. All the other tools are fine. You also get large floor tool and a power paw. It uses OX bags that are so easy to change. Go take a look at it. You can find it at the larger Target stores. Oh! And it's blue! My favorite color!

I'm with Ross, I love canisters! The more attachments, the better!

Hey Marty! I looked at a picture of the Air Extreme...it looks tiny! How big is it? I will have to check them out the next time I'm in Target.

Ryan (my other half) bought me a Eureka HP6855A High Performance Canister off Ebay about a week ago. I told him he can buy me vacuums whenever he wants as a joke and he took it seriously! LOL. I'm really curious how it will perform once it gets here.
 
I was in Wal-Mart the other day and saw a Eureka canister that looks similar to my Riccar,mine uses the cloth type disposable bags and the cheapest I've seen them for is for 14.95 for a small package on e-bay,I only paid 19.99 for the vacuum at Goodwill,so I bought the Arm & Hammer brand that are for the Eureka Style T for like 3.00 and they work, just had to cut the round tab off,they both use a similar bag holder,the Riccar is made in China,it is the Sunburst model,very lightweight and super powerfull I wonder if it is related to the Eureka Electrolux line,The air powered powernozzle is great I have to use the suction release because it grabs onto area rugs and gets hard to push.
