Customer Review: Awesome!!!! Pets, Children and Allergies
This is the best vacuum I have ever owned. The 4870GZ model is the best vacuum for the price. I got it with two specials that were going on at Amazon for only $110. It is under $300 and very good with consumer reports.

This is a great vacuum for any price if you have pets, allergies or children. I have all three. Two children, two large dogs and allergies. I sucks up everything. My model had the power paw which I have come to love.

A vacuum with a bag is the only way to go for someone with allergies. I had a bagless vac, but couldn’ empty it because I couldn’t breath when exposed to all of the dust. I takes to long anyway to empty and clean. I like just throwing away the bag.

Amazon was really great. I originally got the wrong model. This is because the first one I received was a rebuilt older model, but in the box of the model I ordered. Just human error. Amazon had UPS pick it up at my door the next day and the day after that I received the correct one. Excellent on timing.

I have read reviews where people have reported it is too heavy. I am only 5 feet 2 inches and can carry it. It is a little heavier than other vacs but that is because it works so well. If you want a lighter vac it isn’t going to clean as well. I don’t really excersise but am use to picking up children. Older folks may have a probelm though.

Also I have read that people have had problems lowering the handle. It is important to know that the button you step on does not go back towards you. It goes to the left. So when you step on it, do not push down towards yourself (assuming you are standing behind it), push out to the left.

Another observation of mine has been that in order to change back and forth between bare floor and carpet you need to have the handle down. The switch is stiff, so don’t be afraid to use a little pressure until it clicks into place.

One more thing. It feels like the vacuum is self propelled. I think this is because the roller goes so fast. You can’t even tell from looking that it is moving. It just takes off when you start. It is harder to pull back. This just further proves how well it is cleaning.

Thanks For The Memory…The Great American Songbook IV Accuse Rod Stewart of what you like–through the years he’s been called a philanderer, a has-been, a pageant-ish progenitor of puff rock–but as he has consistently proved with his Great American Songbook series, the concept of dignity is not lost on him. There is a time, after all, for leaping across stages in leopard-print spandex while shamelessly parading an unparalleled gift for scratchy-voiced seduction, and he is past it. Past his prime is another thing. On this fourth installation of the Clive Davis-produced series, Stewart again makes excellent use of his rolodex: Diana Ross, whose affection for this material comes through as convincingly as her spike-haired partner’s, cuddles up for opener “I’ve Got a Crush On You,” Chaka Khan packs her bags but not her mighty vocals for “You Send Me,” and Sir Elton shelves the recent balladeer’s instincts for a rip-roaring run through “Makin’ Whoopee.” A handful of marquee instrumentalists also returned Rod’s calls– Dave Koz blows sax on “Nevertheless,” and trumpeters Chris Botti and Roy Hargrove turn up the heat on “I Wish You Love” and “My One and Only Love” respectively. As on earlier discs, though, it’s when Rod rules the spotlight alone that he can be most compelling: Cue up “My Funny Valentine” in the right frame of mind and you may never need to hear it sung by another. Retiring the satin shirts in favor of this material was the smartest move Stewart ever made. –Tammy La Gorce
