Sanyo SC-Y120 Customer Review(s):
Summary: Handy tool !! Rating: 5 (out of 5) Comment: It does everything as needed. This is most likely to be the secondary vacuum at home. The first one usually is the heavy duty one (heavy machine as well). This one will be perfect for light duty job, clean under the bed or anywhere with limited access. .........................................................................................................................................................................
Summary: SC-Y120 performs poorly on both bare floors and carpets Rating: 2 (out of 5) Comment: PRO:
- Light
- Modern looking
- It actually has decent vacuuming power
- The spinning 10' brush works extremely well (though unwieldy) in cleaning fine cat's hair in furniture fabric
CON:
- Short cord
- The main attachment (with 10' brush de-activated to clean floors) performs adequately on opened hardwood floors but poorly in the corners due to the bulk of its size.
- The main attachment (with 10' brush activated to clean carpets) performs poorly on medium height carpet because the air-driven brush does not protrude much beyond the attachment's plastic housing.
- The wand's sections kept getting detach especially when vacuuming on carpet
- The tool holder sometimes gets in the way when vacuuming under the sofa or cabinet
SOLUTION:
- I should have returned the darn thing but decided otherwise because of its cat's hair removal capability - which is WAY better than the heavy Sears' canister and its many attachments
- For Bare Floors: Use the Sears' 6' floor attachment (since both Sanyo wand and Sears' attachment have the same inner diameter, I had to go to Home Depot to find a plastic pipe to make a coupling section)
- For Carpets: Use the heavy Sears canister!
- Or maybe I would just get rid of both Sanyo vacuum and the cat
