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 brushroll with Riser Visor, a stretch hose and attachments for getting into tight spaces. The onboard crevice tool gets into those places too small for the brushroll.
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. --Ann Bieri

Works well, but haven't used it a lot:
So far I'm pleased with this unit. It seems to work well and does what it states. You have to clean the filter a lot, each time you use it - but it seems to clean well. I've not used it a lot but I'd purchase again...so far so good....
Great Product:
This is a great little product. It works much better than any little dustbuster and the brush head really helps to pick up stuff. My cat hair on the couch and stairs dont stand a chance. The hose and tool are convenient. My only complaint is the storage of the cord is poorly engineered and easily slips off the unit when you are trying to store it and there is no way to unroll just what you need. Basically it is all or nothing, meaning if I want to use it I must unroll more cord than I care to roll back up.... more info
Great vacuum, especially for the price:
I was looking for a hand-held vacuum and wanted to purchase a Dyson, since I love the floor model that I have. Bought I was put off by the price. Decided to give the Eureka 71B a try and I have to say that it is awesome. Much better than what I was expecting. The bristles for carpet work especially well. Have also used it for my car and furniture and have had incredible results. Can't recommend this enough!
WOW!:
My euro pro shark died and I did not think I could ever be happy with another hand-held vacuum. I was wrong. This one is so much more powerful and easy to use. So many reviews say it is heavy - compared to a dust vac yes compared to another hand held like my shark not heavy at all. It is so easy to use and it is amazingly powerful. Works on Stairs and cleaning up corners, it does an awesome job on our sofas getting the cat hair. I highly recommend this vacuum. I also love how compact it is and how all the... more info
