Stick with your TriStar-new vacuums in the $100-150 range are TRASH! | ||

DJ...it depends on the kind of cleaning you need to do. If you are looking at cleaning carpets and broadloom, you can definitely get a great performer in your price range: Consumer Reports has given high scores to the Hoover Tempo Widepath U5140-900 Bagged Upright ($80) and the new Hoover WindTunnel T-Series Rewind UH70110 Bagless Upright ($130). They also liked the new Eureka AirSpeed AS1000A bagless upright for $100 - it is listed as a Best Buy.
These uprights are really not great at cleaning anything other than carpets. For non-carpet cleaning, you need to invest in a good straight suction canister that may run you around $300 to $400 dollars. | ||

Why is this in the Vintage forums? Can this be moved to contemporary or off topic? | ||

there is NOTHING wrong with the tristar cxl! i just prefer uprights for my daily cleaning, and canisters for crevices/stairs/cars (although the tristar NEVER goes outside for any reason). | ||

Hoover T series
If you really want a bagless vacuum, the Hoover Tseries is an excellent choice. They don't lose suction very fast, and the filter stays clean for quite a while. If you put a new belt in it, the brushroll is Very aggressive and really digs down deep. It has good suction, but poor attatchments. I use the pet rewind as a daily driver and am very pleased so far; I've used it for 7 months now and durability isn't an issue. All in all it's a great machine!
