Review and General Information about the Portapower Commercial Vacuum Cleaner

So – what are we working with here?
Here is truly a low priced and unique upright vacuum cleaner that’s designed to be for both household and commercial use. The Portapower Commercial Vacuum Cleaner comes in at under $150 (and even much cheaper at Amazon -  only $119) and – brace yourself – it  is incredibly light weight, weighing in at just 8 pounds!

The unit itself is black, grey, and red.

Who is it for?
In our opinion, this vacuum is best sold for heavy duty household use or light commercial use. If you run a small business and need a reliable vacuum cleaner, this will do the job. If you run a cleaning business, it would be best to invest those dollars in a more long-term, heavy duty vacuum cleaner.

How much does it cost?
The Portapower retails for around $150.

It is currently on sale at Amazon.com for $119. (Prices valid at the time of this writing.)

Tell me some of the technical specifications.
This is compact unit, as mentioned, weighing only 8 pounds. It is equipped with a 2.2 peak HP motor and also doubles as a blower. The bags used are 3-layers, which means you won’t have to replace it as quickly as usual. The design lends itself towards mobility; you won’t struggle moving this vacuum cleaner up the stairs as much as you will with most upright models.

The unit also comes with a variety of tools: such as the crevice tool, wall/floor brush, dusting brush, furniture nozzle, rug/floor nozzle, two chrome wands, storage strap and shoulder strap.

Not that this unit also works very well on bare floors without carpets, such as hard wood floors.

Does it come with a lifetime warranty?
No information at this time is available on a warranty being offered or not being offered on this model. If you have purchased this unit, please add a comment (comment form is below this post) as to whether or not you were able to get a free warranty with your purchase, or if a paid warranty was offered to you as well.

What kind of feedback is this model getting?
Users note that this unit is VERY portable, offers good suction, remove cat and dog hair easily, and is relatively quiet. At Amazon.com’s price of $120, this is a steal for a solid household use or for a light commercial vacuum cleaner.  Many users find this to be a great vacuum for small places in which you need a good cleaner but don’t have a lot of room to store it.
