Review of the Eureka Smart-Vac

A major consumer magazine rated this vacuum model a “best buy.” The Eureka Boss Smart Vacuum advertises an exclusive sealed HEPA filter system that captures 99.97% of dust and allergens, helping anyone who suffers from asthma and allergies.

Eureka designed this model to clean more thoroughly while protecting tile and hardwood floors throughout your home. The bare floor brushes, along with strong suction, pick up more dirt and dust—even in corners and along baseboards. With these features and more, the Eureka 4870GZ Boss Smart Vacuum delivers superior cleaning throughout your home.

Most department stores carry this vacuum for around $150.

Eureka Boss Smart Vacuum 4870GZ Features

• Motorized brush roll
• HEPA filtration
• Deluxe wide cleaning path
• High/Low suction switch
• 30 ft cord
• Convenient on/off switch

This feature set allows quick and easy transitions from bare floors to carpet.

Deluxe Wide Cleaning Path

The vacuum provides a cleaning path 25 percent wider than standard models. You cover more space in less time, reducing overall cleaning effort.

High/Low Suction Switch

You can adjust suction power as needed. When using the wand, simply choose the level that matches the job.

Stretch Hose

The stretch hose reaches corners and high ceilings with ease. When you use the hose, the brush on the vacuum body turns off, reducing brush wear and protecting your floors.

Eureka Boss Smart Vacuum Attachments

All attachments mount directly on the vacuum for quick access. The upholstery attachment lets you switch from floors to furniture and then back again with no fuss.

The patented paw attachment removes stubborn pet hair from furniture. Additional tools include a dusting tool and a crevice tool for complete cleaning.

Eureka Boss Smart Vacuum 4870GZ Recommendations

One reviewer said that after researching many models, she chose the Boss and now uses it almost daily. Highly satisfied, she praises its strong suction and warns parents to watch for tiny toys because the vacuum will grab them quickly. She also likes the rubber wheels, which stay safe on hardwood floors. Her area rugs even feel softer after a cleaning. She would buy this vacuum again.

Eureka Boss Smart Vacuum Controversy

Weight sparked debate among consumers. Some users felt the machine was heavy, while others liked the added sturdiness and found it harder to tip over. They also noted that it can be carried up and down stairs more easily when you flip the brush switch to “off” while moving the vacuum.

Another reviewer struggled with the tools mounted on the vacuum, feeling that they made the machine clumsy. She solved the issue by storing the tools in a closet. Other reviewers enjoyed having all the tools immediately available.

A mother of seven shared that she has used her Boss for three years, sometimes three times a day. With children who suffer from allergies, she appreciates how well the HEPA filter system helps keep her home cleaner and reduces some of their symptoms. She also reports that the vacuum still runs perfectly and maintains strong suction. Although the weight feels heavy, the machine stays sturdy and doesn’t tip over. Her children vacuum often, and since they live in a single-story home, she mentioned that she would buy a second Boss for an upstairs area if her home had two levels.

The Boss is priced well and built strong enough to withstand heavy use. With its durability, features, and performance, it’s easy to understand why it earned a “best buy” rating.
