What a horrible Oreck , I received it the other day and am for the first time in my life very disapointed with Oreck . To start and end this is made in CHINA , complete garbage sorry to say.It is like a toy to be nice. I don`t like reaching in back of the handle to find the switch . It has a smaller cleaning path than all the other orecks. A very narrow tube for dirt to go through and a smaller bag and a different one than all other orecks. The LED headlight is worthless . Very difficult the replace brush roller you must take to Oreck store to get it replaced . Oh did I tell you it`s made in CHINA so disapointed in Oreck what were they thinking .Not worth the $500.00 they are charging . Back it goes asap !

It looks like it would break or catch fire if you looked at it wrong |

Their grabbing at any market that they can, die hard oreck fans would buy one wasting money on it. Even if I liked oreck I wouldn't buy one, looks cheap, and unreliable. But thats my personal opinion. |

all of Orecks current models in my opinion are very well made and they work very well . I especially love my Platnium Pilot it is my favorite. The big difference is all the other Orecks are made in the USA . I did try the edge at sears also and it is very well made and cleans really well compared to the Magnesium . Thanks John : )
I still need to take pictures just been busy soon I promise . |

I like my XL Ultra. Love my XL21. Tried out the Pilot and Edge at Sears the pilot really pulled itself along it seems like it would be a nice vac but the handle was a bit loose so it would sometimes turn instead of the head. The Edge at sears did not have the quick wand on it, it seems to have an even larger fill tube and it has a variable speed motor which was pretty cool. I think it would out clean the Pilot but i'm unsure if it would outlast it, the Pilot being built in the USA and not having the circuit boards the edge does would probably have better longevity.

Dreadfully misguided. Looks like something an Art Student cooked up for a design project, with no intention that it would be put into production. But it wouldn't look out of place in a hermeticly sealed high rise condo with the all glass walls, where it never gets dusty. Mostly it looks like a coat stand and after I pick mine out of the dumpster in a few years that's exactly what I'll use it for...

I was watching TV this morning and caught the infomercial for the Magnesium, and noticed a lack of any one from the Oreck Family, not David, or his son. Instead it was two women, one of which who use to host a home improvemnt show on HGTV. |
