Product Description
Remove deeply embedded dirt from anywhere in your home or car. Ideal for cleaning stairs and auto upholstery, this hand vacuum cleans with the help of a revolving brush roll with Riser Visor, a stretch hose and attachments for getting into tight spaces. The on board crevice tool gets into those places too small for the brush roll.

Hand-held but very powerful, this Eureka model eliminates the hassle of lugging around a full-size vacuum for cleaning car upholstery, sofas, and carpeted stairs. A long 20-foot cord (which wraps for storage) provides good reach, as does the deluxe hose that stretches to three times its length. With the crevice tool on the end of the hose, this vacuum reaches into all kinds of tight places. And, with two motors, one to power the revolving brush and one for suction, the 5.5 amp vacuum cleans deeply.

One of Eureka’s innovations is the Riser Visor, a clear plastic cover that stays down for cleaning horizontal surfaces and flips up so the revolving brush can reach the vertical carpet on stair risers. There’s no bag to change, just a filter and clear plastic dust cup to shake out when necessary.

Eureka 71B Hand-Held Vacuum Review
I purchased this vacuum about two years ago for the purpose of vacuuming my stairs and my chenile couches. I have two cats (one a Himalayan). This vacuum WAS amazing for the first 2 years. Suddenly I smelled something burning, not like rubber burning, more like electrical. Then I saw sparks inside like near where the cord goes into the vacuum. I cleaned the brushes all the time but it still sparked up. I am so disappointed because it worked so well.

This little vacuum has great suction and picks up pet hair much better than the previous small vacuum we had. It is used primarily on the carpeted stairs and to vacuum the floor of our cars. The filter is easy to clean & you don’t have to mess with a paper bag. The built in hose attachment is easy to use and did a nice job on dust on the stairway banister.

I ordered this item based on the other reviews and am glad I did. With 2 small dogs and a Golden Retriever, we have a ‘fur on the floor’ house. I got this little guy mainly for the stairs, and am not dissappointed! The weight is not a problem at all. My 9 year old granddaughter was able to manage our 13 stairs just fine. I am pleased that the noise level is low, and the built in hose feature is excellent.

At first, I was disappointed with this unit because of its weight (I am 84 and not so strong as I used to be) and the seeming difficulty in using extension wands to reach places I need it for. However even though the instructions (unless my poor vision missed something) did not tell me how to do this, I did discover the answer by accident. The answer is that the end of the hose on to which you might attach the crevice tool fits snuggly into a standard vacuum cleaner wand and other vacuum cleaner tools that I have. This made a wonderful difference. The vacuum cleaner has a lot of suction for a hand held.

I have had this vac for maybe a month or two and I love it! I have two cats, vacuum at least once a week but use this hand vac to get the dust bunnies (cat hair bunnies?) during the week. But this does not give a sense of how strong & effective this thing is. It’s great for getting all that cat hair (and dust & everything else) off the furniture & area rugs too. The powered brush roller WORKS, the extendable hose tool is just fine, and while it is not a quiet machine, I do not find it to be louder than my Eureka upright (which I also love) or past hand-vacs. It’s also not noticeably lightweight, but I don’t find this to be a problem (I am a small 35-year-old woman with average or below-average arm strength). Use your regular vacuum cleaner to do the main job, then use this hand vac as an excellent “finishing tool” for pet hair issues, furniture & in-between clean-up. Enjoy!
