5.0 out of 5 stars Oreck Commercial XL Commercial Upright Vacuum Cleaner, XL2100RHS
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } My old Oreck had worked fine for over 25 years. It was still working when I needed the electrical cord replaced. Had to take it to new place 45 minutes away. Of course one week later they told me over the phone they found all kinds of things wrong with it--bearing about to go, a housing cracked, brush something, a loud noise on startup....There was no loud noise on startup....and it had been working, but it was getting pretty old. I did some research and decided even though a lot of my friends like their Dysons, I do not have room in my condo to store a Dyson. I don't have pets and I do need something lightweight.I decided to stay with my Oreck as I loved such features as: 1) the head drops straight down and with an inexpensive plastic cable tie looped through the handle I hang it in the tiny space next to the hot water heater in the little closet; 2) it is lightweight and easy on my back; 3) it can vacuum under furniture; 4) I can go from carpeting to kitchen floor and I don't need two separate machines; 5) has the self-sealing dustbag, vs emptying a cup of dust.I could not believe the new models no longer have headlights which I had found helpful. However, on the plus side I found that my new Oreck has an even lower profile motor head and now I can easily vacuum under my kitchen cabinets right up to the baseboards where crumbs used to accumulate.So I was told in researching, that the original Oreck company that had advertised so aggressively in the '90s, had run into some financial problems and was sold to another U.S. based owner. Don't quote me as I don't want to spread misinformation, but it seems the models that were most like the originals-- were now called Oreck Commercial Upright Vacuums and are available on Bolo. There is a small range of prices on Bolo from about $156.00 (although it temporarily has gone down in price) to just over $300.00.Then I checked the Oreck website and saw what was available if you go to the Oreck stores that are still open. The new Orecks are elegant looking and much more expensive than the commercial Oreck vacs on Bolo. Some of them still have headlights. However they don't have all the old features of the original Orecks such as weighing only 8 pounds and the release on the handle so you can vacuum under the furniture. After much debate I decided to go with the Oreck Commercial XL2100RHS, that was most like my old beloved XL. However there were more Bolo reviewers that voted for the other Oreck Commercial style (U2000R1 line) and the majority had good things to say about that model also. That Oreck Commercial line has a 40 foot cord vs the 35 foot cord on my XL. It would have been helpful for me to have the extra 5 feet of cord, but the new cord is much heavier duty than the old and actually adds some weight to the vac. Being commercial heavy cord wears better and it now attaches with a pigtail so it is easier to replace the cord. It has a three prong plug. The helping hand attachment on the (U2000R1) looked good, especially if you vacuum stairs, but it is not available on the XL2100RHS model.Shipping was superfast. But I kept looking at the big box and delaying opening it--it couldn't be as easy to put together as Boloers said. Finally I faced the task and there was a brand new clean vac in the box. I had ordered 25 bags because I wanted to be able to use it when it came, but it was shipped with an Oreck new bag inside ready to turn on and use. Whomever packed it had even put a wrapped single Oreck scent tab halfway sticking out of the zipper bag so you'd see it when you opened it. Opening the box was easy and I was surprised that it came with a small paper manual covering the easy assembly and use and maintenance. Oreck has a pocket on the outside of the zipper bag and it is a good place to keep the Manual, a few extra bags and your receipt. There is also a tiny square pocket inside the zipper bag where you can slip the recommended scent tab. Personally, I prefer to break a new tab up and drop it inside the new disposable dust bag as I change bags-- you can still enjoy the pleasant scent and this way you don't get the inside of your zipper bag sticky. The scent seems to disperse better this way. That was another detail I was grateful for--there was some confusion over the docking of the disposable bags when I read about the different models on Bolo. I was happy to see what I consider to be the docking mechanism (not positive)--the way you attach the dust bag inside to the suction pipe with the cardboard that self seals as you change it--that system is still the same in the Oreck. After I use my new Oreck a few more times and change the dust bag I will update this review. But for now I am thrilled with the way this model performed--much easier to vacuum my plush (but not thick plush +) wall to wall carpeting and it really refreshed and pulled the plush nap up-it didn't look all matted down. I loved how the Oreck went from my low level Orientals, to the plush, to my kitchen vinyl floor. Now there was a slightly funny almost electrical smell as I was vacuuming the first time. I had not thrown the scent tab in the bag and also I think maybe the motor lubricants were just starting to work their way through the motor on start up? But I vacuumed the entire condo and the smell seemed to get better, not worse.ASSEMBLY: I am not handy and I am less handy as I am getting older. But this was actually pretty easy to do. I don't think Oreck could have made it any easier unless they included a screwdriver and silicon spray. Easy open box. PIECE ONE: Vacuum motor and zipper bag and lower half the handle. PIECE TWO: the top half of the handle including the bright electric cord all rolled up (and heavy). Remove the protective small cardboard tube over the two screws near the top of the metal handle of PIECE ONE . Carefully use a Philips screwdriver to unscrew the two black screws in the metal handle in PIECE ONE You don't want to put weird pressure on the screws, or turn them at a weird angle and bend them. As you remove the two screws the white plastic disposable piece comes out and the important metal piece that reinforces and secures your handle comes off. That piece is flat at the top and curved at the bottom. Now I found it easier to release the heavy electrical cord and let it fall to the floor as I carefully lined up the two halves of the handle. Be sure you keep the on /off switch to the front of the vacuum. It was okay to get the PIECE TWO into PIECE ONE, but tricky to carefully maneuver them down tightly together. They fit together so far and stopped but the screw holes weren't aligned and I could see the top part needed to go down further. The main thing is not to twist and bend anything as you push these down together. Possibly you could use a little oil or silicon spray as mine did not easily slide together. But really not as hard as I am describing--probably pretty easy for those who are handy. It didn't take long for me to see I had the pieces going the right way and the top just had to go down further and it did. Then the holes were perfectly aligned to carefully put the screws in. I keep saying carefully as some Bolo reviewers complain about the handle coming apart as they are vacuuming--uugh--not what you want. So if you get this little part done right and do NOT bend the screws by not having the handle pushed all the way in but forcing the screws and thereby bending them-- then especially with the metal reinforcement piece that goes over them--your handle should be in great shape, and even though all you did was put in two easy screws and didn't even put the dust bag in -- you will feel like you built the whole machine!I don't know why they don't tell you this part in the Manual, but after your handle is done and secure, you will notice a thin black plastic clip for the electric wire next to where you just secured the handle. I recommend using the vaccuum a little and deciding exactly how you want you electric cord clipped--I found that I needed to have the cord a bit more controlled (but not pulled tight) from the bottom motor part to the clip and leave it a little looser from the clip to the handle. The blue bag that was installed inside my new XLCommercial 2100RHS was "9 PACK REORDER NO. PK80009"and "25 PACK REORDER NO. PK800025". Finally, so you can wind the cord around the two hooks, you many need to gently rotate the top blue hook to the upward position.So far, so good. Will update as needed.
5.0 out of 5 stars Super lightweight.
Our church bought this for our cleaning staff and it works so good I bought one for home. It’s super light and simple with a nice long cord that reaches most of the way through the house. I love it! It is better suited for bare floors to thinner carpet. I’m not sure how well it would work on thicker or shag carpet.
5.0 out of 5 stars Top Notch as Always
I had my last Oreck for 21 years. So, of course when I broke it, I bought another. I broke my old Oreck, it didn’t break itself. The motor was still running strong. I had replaced a couple parts over the years, but once again, things that we broke … puppy chewed through power cord, etc.Okay, on to my review of my new one! I love it just as much and believe there is no other vacuum on the market that could keep up with pet hair in our home. We have three German Shepherds (very heavy shedders, over 100 lbs each) that live inside with us. We also have two twenty pound, long haired cats. I thoroughly vacuum with my Oreck daily, and run my robot vac in between.This new Oreck sucks the pet hair and sand (we live in rural Florida on dirt road and driveway) out of our rugs like a champ! People who are saying this is not like the old Oreck quality are mistaken. I used my old Oreck one day and this new one the following evening, and the new one is actually stronger! I vacuum so often, I know exactly how my rugs look after on pass with each.To address some other negative reviews -It’s not too loud! It’s equally as loud as any vacuum. If you want silence, use a broom. I prefer to vacuum all hard floors, as sweeping throws a lot of dust particles into the air to breathe, and I have dust allergies and asthma.As a side note to that, owning an Oreck has vastly improved my quality of life, as it vacuums so deeply. My asthma has been under control since owning one - 21 years.Another complaint I read is that the cord is too stiff and thick. Well, it’s a powerful vacuum, the cord needs to be heavy duty to be safe! And over time, it relaxes, making it quite easy to wrap.Other people are saying this vacuum is heavy! It’s not heavy at all. It only starts to get heavy with all the crap it pulls out of your carpets and off your floors - much more than other brands. You are only supposed to let the bag get about 1/3 of the way full before changing. And by that time, it contains quite a few pounds of dirt, dust, sand, hair, and whatever else.If my grandma self, with some physical disabilities can lift it, anyone can.And finally, I have read that the cord it too long. This was the most shocking because it’s something I always loved about my Oreck. I don’t have to change outlets as often. In my opinion, the long cord is a pro, rather than a con.I did wait a week before writing this review, and I will absolutely update it if, for some reason, things go south with my new Oreck.I also absolutely adore the patriotic colors! I hated to see my pretty yellow one go, I was very happy to not have to get plain gray. I also like that the bag on the new one is a dust proof material, unlike the old fabric ones. Great improvement!Unlike most people, I love vacuuming. I am sort of a vacuum connoisseur. I have tried out many other vacuums, as my adult daughters purchased them. They all own Orecks now, after going through lots of others.And I was older when I got my first Oreck, so had used plenty others in my life.Here is a test to do that originally sold me on my first one -Thoroughly vacuum your home with your old vacuum. Get the floors, carpets, and rugs to the place where you think there is nothing left down there. Put a brand new bag in your Oreck and go over it all again. You will be shocked at what comes out of a “clean” floor!
4.0 out of 5 stars Functionality
Why did you pick this product vs others?:It is a Godsend. So powerful and easy to use.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product and VALUE!
This is a great upright vacuum cleaner! I had one years ago, and I loved it then.I sold it when I moved (combining households). My partner had a Dyson, so w used that one bc it had attachments. What a piece of junk it was! It was very bulky. The ball “swiivel” is huge. It wouldn’t fit under most of our furniture, it was unsteady when upright, and the attachment hose and tools were not simple to use.I really like my Oreck upright. It’s exactly what I need to do a thorough cleaning.We also have the small Oreck canister vac, which I like just as much. It’s a small canister with handle, a long hose, extension pieces, and attachments. It’s super simple. I’m glad I’m back to my old set up.I’ve had the little canister vac for more than 15 years without any problem.

We have had dozens of these vacuums over the years. This is the only vacuum my employees have not been able to kill. They can take some abuse and continue to work for years.

Very good vacuum cleaner. Only drawback is the loudness of the machine.
Love it.

Awesome Vaccuum- reviewed after approx 2.5 years
I purchased this vaccuum approximately 2.5 years ago. It is used daily in a house with 2 large dogs that shed profusely and constantly track in sand in the winter. I have a 3,000 sq ft house with every flooring type. regular carpet, shag carpet, indoor/outdoor carpet, hardwood, concrete, tile, linoleum. Absolutely excellent performance on hard floors- most other uprights I've ever tried on hard floors shoot gravel etc around. This one rules. I use it in every room. This vacuum does it all, and it's lightweight to carry up the stairs. Bagged style is so convenient. Do not let the bag get full and support the bottom of it when removing. As you probably know, there are no attachments to this vacuum, therefore, if you want to be able to vacuum high areas like curtains etc, you will need something else. I actually pick the whole machine up and run it over my couch. We bought this because of ease of use. My old cannister had a lot of features but was a pain in the ass to use and lug around. This one is a breeze. Couple tips for you, especially for large carpeted areas.1. Because it is really lightweight, there is no massive motor that does all the work for you. This means there is a bit of an adjustment and it may feel hard to push at first. The trick is to line your pushing elbow up with your hip and don't overextend your arm. Walk forward 1-2 steps, then back. Don't extend your arm and push it way out far ahead of yourself.2. If the time comes that you DO suddenly think it feels hard to push, like it's taking undue effort- it needs a belt change. We have used this daily for 2 years before changing the belt for the first time. Because it's easy to use and works on every surface in my home, it gets used a LOT. Way better than a heavy "does everything" machine that you dread using.
That it is very loud
Got this for my home it had a USA plug on so had to buy an adapter so I could use it it is very very loud even my neighbours complained to me when I was using it x so sent it back
Great simple and light vacuum cleaner.
The problem I was trying to solve with this vacuum is that I was tired of lugging a huge canister vacuum all over my rather small house where I have three floors and not a lot of room to maneouvre. Most of my floors are low-to-mid-pile carpet and for those that aren't carpet, I don't normally vacuum them - I mop and/or sweep.Most of the upright vacuums that are readily available in stores seem to be heavily-marketed to look like they're more than they (like what is done with modern cars), and with this comes a significant amount of bulk and loss in functionality. I wanted a vacuum I could put in my closet when I wasn't using it, and something that went flat to vacuum underneath beds and other low-lying furniture.You'll probably know by looking at this whether it's what you want - you are likely looking for function over form. It turns on and off. It has one height only and the cord is manually wrapped around cord retainers at the back. It's light (I can carry it one-handed up the stairs). It has good suction. It's quite noisy. It doesn't have a light. It doesn't have attachments. It is just what I was looking for.For cleaning things other than floors, get Oreck's canister vacuum (BB1200DB or similar). It's a nice bridge between large canister vacuums and cheap handhelds and wins again in very similar ways.

My asthma has been under control since owning one - 21 years.Another complaint I read is that the cord is too stiff and thick. Well, it’s a powerful vacuum, the cord needs to be heavy duty to be safe! And over time, it relaxes, making it quite easy to wrap.Other people are saying this vacuum is heavy! It’s not heavy at all. It only starts to get heavy with all the crap it pulls out of your carpets and off your floors - much more than other brands. You are only supposed to let the bag get about 1/3 of the way full before changing. And by that time, it contains quite a few pounds of dirt, dust, sand, hair, and whatever else.If my grandma self, with some physical disabilities can lift it, anyone can.And finally, I have read that the cord it too long. This was the most shocking because it’s something I always loved about my Oreck. I don’t have to change outlets as often. In my opinion, the long cord is a pro, rather than a con.I did wait a week before writing this review, and I will absolutely update it if, for some reason, things go south with my new Oreck.I also absolutely adore the patriotic colors! I hated to see my pretty yellow one go, I was very happy to not have to get plain gray. I also like that the bag on the new one is a dust proof material, unlike the old fabric ones. Great improvement!Unlike most people, I love vacuuming. I am sort of a vacuum connoisseur. I have tried out many other vacuums, as my adult daughters purchased them. They all own Orecks now, after going through lots of others.And I was older when I got my first Oreck, so had used plenty others in my life.Here is a test to do that originally sold me on my first one -Thoroughly vacuum your home with your old vacuum. Get the floors, carpets, and rugs to the place where you think there is nothing left down there. Put a brand new bag in your Oreck and go over it all again. You will be shocked at what comes out of a “clean” floor!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:It is a Godsend. So powerful and easy to use.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product and VALUE!
This is a great upright vacuum cleaner! I had one years ago, and I loved it then.I sold it when I moved (combining households). My partner had a Dyson, so w used that one bc it had attachments. What a piece of junk it was! It was very bulky. The ball “swiivel” is huge. It wouldn’t fit under most of our furniture, it was unsteady when upright, and the attachment hose and tools were not simple to use.I really like my Oreck upright. It’s exactly what I need to do a thorough cleaning.We also have the small Oreck canister vac, which I like just as much. It’s a small canister with handle, a long hose, extension pieces, and attachments. It’s super simple. I’m glad I’m back to my old set up.I’ve had the little canister vac for more than 15 years without any problem.

We have had dozens of these vacuums over the years. This is the only vacuum my employees have not been able to kill. They can take some abuse and continue to work for years.

Very good vacuum cleaner. Only drawback is the loudness of the machine.
Love it.

Awesome Vaccuum- reviewed after approx 2.5 years
I purchased this vaccuum approximately 2.5 years ago. It is used daily in a house with 2 large dogs that shed profusely and constantly track in sand in the winter. I have a 3,000 sq ft house with every flooring type. regular carpet, shag carpet, indoor/outdoor carpet, hardwood, concrete, tile, linoleum. Absolutely excellent performance on hard floors- most other uprights I've ever tried on hard floors shoot gravel etc around. This one rules. I use it in every room. This vacuum does it all, and it's lightweight to carry up the stairs. Bagged style is so convenient. Do not let the bag get full and support the bottom of it when removing. As you probably know, there are no attachments to this vacuum, therefore, if you want to be able to vacuum high areas like curtains etc, you will need something else. I actually pick the whole machine up and run it over my couch. We bought this because of ease of use. My old cannister had a lot of features but was a pain in the ass to use and lug around. This one is a breeze. Couple tips for you, especially for large carpeted areas.1. Because it is really lightweight, there is no massive motor that does all the work for you. This means there is a bit of an adjustment and it may feel hard to push at first. The trick is to line your pushing elbow up with your hip and don't overextend your arm. Walk forward 1-2 steps, then back. Don't extend your arm and push it way out far ahead of yourself.2. If the time comes that you DO suddenly think it feels hard to push, like it's taking undue effort- it needs a belt change. We have used this daily for 2 years before changing the belt for the first time. Because it's easy to use and works on every surface in my home, it gets used a LOT. Way better than a heavy "does everything" machine that you dread using.
That it is very loud
Got this for my home it had a USA plug on so had to buy an adapter so I could use it it is very very loud even my neighbours complained to me when I was using it x so sent it back
Great simple and light vacuum cleaner.
The problem I was trying to solve with this vacuum is that I was tired of lugging a huge canister vacuum all over my rather small house where I have three floors and not a lot of room to maneouvre. Most of my floors are low-to-mid-pile carpet and for those that aren't carpet, I don't normally vacuum them - I mop and/or sweep.Most of the upright vacuums that are readily available in stores seem to be heavily-marketed to look like they're more than they (like what is done with modern cars), and with this comes a significant amount of bulk and loss in functionality. I wanted a vacuum I could put in my closet when I wasn't using it, and something that went flat to vacuum underneath beds and other low-lying furniture.You'll probably know by looking at this whether it's what you want - you are likely looking for function over form. It turns on and off. It has one height only and the cord is manually wrapped around cord retainers at the back. It's light (I can carry it one-handed up the stairs). It has good suction. It's quite noisy. It doesn't have a light. It doesn't have attachments. It is just what I was looking for.For cleaning things other than floors, get Oreck's canister vacuum (BB1200DB or similar). It's a nice bridge between large canister vacuums and cheap handhelds and wins again in very similar ways.
