Sanyo Dirt Hunter Bagless Powerhead Canister SC-X1000P

Date Published: 3/25/08

As bagless canister-style vacuums continue to evolve, so does the Dirt Hunter SC-X1000P from Sanyo. This unit features some industry improvements that make vacuuming with this type of machine even more effective.

Ideal for homes with multiples types of floor coverings, the initial difference you'll note on this model is its shape and low center of gravity. This design makes the machine balanced and allows it to travel easily from carpet to hard floors with ease.

The floor/rug switch allows the user to quickly immobilize the brushroll. Able to turn on a dime, this model resists falling over and is easily maneuverable thanks to a 360-degree swivel hose. Unlike many comparably priced models, this Sanyo vacuum has durable plastic wands.

The onboard tools are easily removable and can be quickly attached to the wands for above-the-floor cleaning. Requiring just 3 inches of clearance, this machine fits under many chairs and sofas that other models do not. The SC-X1000P packs dirt down effectively, increasing dirt cup capacity. The dirt trap empties from the bottom via a hinged door and offers a removable and washable HEPA filter as one of its four filtration stages.

A compact unit, the Sanyo Dirt Hunter SC-X1000P is lightweight enough to carry up stairs without strain. Outfitted with only an 18-foot power cord, this unit is best suited for small to moderate size living spaces.

Pros: Stainless wands, three tools included (crevice, upholstery, dusting)
Cons: Only 18 ft. cord
