How many of you hate cleaning? It is one of the chores that never seem to get finished. You just wipe off the floor when you notice that dust has decided to shift their residence to the corners of the furniture or room. So you need to get down to business. AGAIN!
With our busy schedule, doing a deep cleaning process all by ourselves every week is almost impossible – unless you are a cleaning freak. We need a helping hand, and what can be better than a prodigy of science. Vacuum cleaners have been here for decades, making our home spic and span.
While going through the market, we came across various models of vacuum cleaners. Cordless and corded, humongous and miniature, canister and upright were some of the options that we came across. However, we settle for Oreck Commercial U2000R-1 for various reasons.
What we were looking for in this cleaning device is an amalgamation of power with convenience. Oreck U2000R-1 ticked all the boxes. So here are our reasons why you should purchase this equipment right away.
Oreck Commercial U2000R-1 Review
The concept behind the first vacuum cleaner created by the company was making a lightweight, powerful device. So in 1963, David Oreck went all out in achieving his goals. The company's first customers included hotel owners, but in no time did Oreck products become part of almost every household in the US, Canada, and parts of Europe. Today, Oreck is famous for manufacturing vacuum cleaners and floor machines, air purifiers, steam mops, etc.

Power
The first thing that we notice about the vacuum is how swiftly it picks up the debris. In other words, we don’t want a piece of machinery that requires you to move over a spot countless times to clean it. It should be able to pick up the debris one or two times.
For that, your vacuum cleaner needs suction power, and the Oreck commercial defines it. The customers have praised the upright vacuum cleaner’s suction ability, and we have been forced with its performance to give it 10/10 in this category. Even stubborn pet hairs are no match for it.
Convenience
The problem with upright versions is that they have problems reaching tiny spaces. They have trouble cleaning under most of the furniture. However, Oreck U2000-R1 comes with a perfect solution. It will easily reach under most furniture such as cupboards, clothes racks, chairs, and tables.
Having the ability to cover a 12” area in one go, U2000-R1 will complete its job in no time. Also, its side edge brushes will work effectively against dust bunnies accumulated in corners and baseboards.
Everyone hates the complicated setting of machinery. Pressing the right combination of buttons is a task that everyone cannot memorize. With the flick of your thumb, you can control the power button, which is easily accessible on the handle.
Furthermore, the Microsweep feature is a god-send gift. Thanks to this characteristic, you can move the vacuum cleaner from carpet to hard floors without going through the excruciating task of changing the setting or its height.
Top Fill Bag
The capacity of the bag is a crucial feature that you need to consider. As I mentioned before, no one has time for tedious tasks. You purchase a vacuum to assist you, not to create more problems. That is why Oreck’s 630 cubic inches "top fill" inner bag has enough space that you don’t need to replace it for an extended period. Moreover, the bag allows you to enjoy suction power at its full capacity.
The bag uses Hypo-Allergenic Filtering System to trap allergens and dust. At the same time, Antimicrobial protection prevents the growth of bacteria and mould. Replace the bag with ease due to Saniseal® bag-docking system as this feature will seal the bag automatically when you pull it out.
Handles
Throughout the cleaning task, you have to have a strong grip on the vacuum. A comfortable handle is essential for this job. Cleaning doesn’t mean that your hand has to suffer. The ergonomic handle doesn’t require your hand to put extra effort into holding it. Moreover, you don’t need to bend or twist your wrist to move the vacuum around.
Due to its easy-to-use handle, Oreck U2000-R1 has been awarded the title of Ease-Of-Use by the Arthritis Foundation. However, this is not the only handle that needs to be discussed. Even though this vacuum only weighs 8 pounds but you still need something to hold onto to carry it up the stairs or to another room. Hence, a carrying handle has been attached to the vacuum.
Safety Feature
While cleaning, bumping into the furniture is unavoidable. You need to take care of every spot in your house, and sometimes you need a vacuum cleaner to go beneath the furniture. Therefore, accidents are almost unavoidable.
Consequently, your furniture may get scratched. You don’t want the coffee table, which your grandma brought from Italy, to get damaged. The protection of furniture is the vocation of transparent non-marring bumpers in U2000-R1. The bumpers will reduce the effects of impact between the vacuum and furniture.
If you find any scratches on your furniture, don’t blame the vacuum cleaner. We put our bets on your cat.
Reduced Downtime
The most frustrating thing about a vacuum cleaner is the downtime. After using it for a few minutes, you have to let your vacuum cleaner rest; otherwise, its motor will heat up and damage itself. To avoid such unnecessary convenience, the Oreck U2000-R1 has been installed with an extra belt.
This means that you don’t have to let the vacuum cleaner cool down numerous times. Also, it increases the time between each downtime so you can work with less interruption.
Cord
Why don't you want to clean under the bed? THERE IS NO POWER SOURCE NEAR IT!!! This is the story that we hear several times in almost every household. If the cord of your vacuum cleaner is not long enough, you have to plug it in an extension. Although, handling two types of machinery can be a headache.
The U2000-R1 holds the upper hand over other upright vacuum cleaners as it includes a 40-ft long cord. The thing is, you don't need to change the power source every time you move towards a new room.
As previously mentioned, accidents happen, and sometimes the victim may be the cord. Instead of paying a hefty amount for replacing the cord, why don't you pull out the damaged wire by opening the cord clamp yourself? The company decided to include a cord clamp as they don't want you to make unnecessary purchases.
Noise
We are not impressed with how much noise Oreck U2000-R1. You can say it has the power to wake your whole house. Still, you can bear the annoying sounds for quality and exceptional features. Furthermore, it is the best weapon to get your kids out of bed.
