Quantum X upright vacuum review

- Quantum X an another vacuum cleaner featuring water filtration coming from the company with the same name. Powerful suction, complete accessory set, durable build, this product has it all. Check out the full review on my blog for more pros and cons of this unit.
I had a water filter vacuum (another brand) that finally gave up the ghost. I LOVED it but didn't want to spend that kind of money to replace it. I looked into the Quantum but was uncertain. Thank you for the thoroughness of your review -- for going over the attachments as well as functions--and demonstrating the suction power with various material/areas. It is always difficult to buy something like this without actually trying for yourself. Your review is complete enough for me to consider this vacuum as a replacement. Thanks!
I have it and in the past I had the previous one you mentioning in the past and was sad it quit. This vacuum is amazing! I recommend it!
The vacuum did not reach under the beds even with the extension. It was difficult/awkward to carry up the stairs or lift over items since there is no where to grab it. If it had a handle partway down the handle it wouldn't be awkward to lift. I accidentally detached the reservoir while trying to lift it. I returned the vacuum
*Works great and is lightweight **MyBest.Tools** Comes apart for cleaning/fits back together easily. It replaced my carpet shampooer. Great on hardwood as well.*
I've had my Quantum X for about 5 months and it is AMAZING for pet hair. I have a dog and 2 cats and I'm thankful for the water filtration. I finally feel like my house is clean when I'm done. It's pretty ucky when I'm done and I don't empty it down my drain. . .outside the majority goes, then in rinsing, if it's still pretty bad - down the toilet. I was not aware until one of these vids that the insert came out for cleaning - who knew?! Also, I sure wish there was a way to store the cord - that to me is one draw back. Perhaps QX will find a remedy soon.
they are a scam
Mine won't pick up hair worth a crap
I have seen a Command HOok attached to the back of the handle for a cord, may try that
So basically you're telling me I can make coffee and vacuum all with the same machine?
Well, not really. Make your coffee first, because you won't want to drink what's left after vacuuming! (haha)
I think a lot of us were thinking the same thing😆😆😆
I've had this vacuum for 5 months now and I absolutely love it! It has incredible suction and plenty of attachments. My only gripe is that you have to store the power cord separately and it is not power-driven. It's a bummer since this unit can feel quite heavy at times. The included fragrances are WONDERFUL!
Still working well?
Great and helpful review! Buying one today! Thanks so much for your video!
I'm ready to have one. Thanks for your review
For dumping the water: just get a large, dedicated tea strainer to strain out the chunks, throw those in the trash and let the rest go down the drain. That's what I do now with my Rainbow. Gotta say I'm a little miffed that I learned about this vacuum AFTER I spent 3500.00 on a new Rainbow. o.O Don't get me wrong, Rainbows are great vacuums (my first Rainbow lasted for nearly 20 years in an energetic family with kids and pets, and was even used in a side hustle cleaning houses) but at this stage of my life (no kids at home, no grandkids yet) I could have made do with the Quantum...and paid ~10% of the price! :/
@@thisman1999 means you're an imbecile.
Thanks much for the water-dumping tip! I just lost my housekeeper who had a Rainbow (and I have a lot of allergies, plus asthma); and had already seen an ad for the QuantumX, then this great review! Off to buy one now! You have a great product too that'll last you a very long time! Thanks much again!
Thanks for the tip on dumping the water. In the winter I hate going out. Yes I totally understand what you say, I owe a Kirby myself, but this is amazing.
I have a Kirby and do like it. I would like to see a Kirby and this quantum working side by side
Or dump it all down the toilet
When you clean in at the end, you have to reach in and pop the black insides out of the reservoir. You must dry everything before you replace and put back into the vacuum. This for sure has pros and cons. The cons are weight and all the parts and pieces that need to be stored but mine came with a nice bag for storage. Other than what I've listed, it's all pros. The biggest pros are it's cleaning power and not having to deal with filters. It's absolutely awesome for cleaning up kitchen floors (especially when you have a daycare), it can clean up food particles so you don't have to worry about bacteria and odors. I have two dogs and couldn't believe the way it picks up their hair from my hardwoods and carpets. It is made well. I would say the pros outweigh the cons.
Awesome review
I've been using Shark for quite a while. When I got the Quantum I was flabbergasted!! After vacuuming the water was BLACK! So much for the Shark having tremendous suction!! Second time the water was brown my only complaint is the weight (thank goodness I don't have to carry it upstairs since we live in a ranch) and the loud noise.
We bought one and the first time I used it I was very impressed with its cleaning power. Then the 2nd time the LED’s flashed and turned off. Then I realized the brush stopped turning. We reset it. It worked again. Then it shut off again on the 4th time. I think we bought a lemon. And a rather expensive one at that. The fact that there is no cord or attachment holder makes the whole experience for me that much worse. I’m on the fence whether I would just exchange it or go with something else
💥💥 Great review… The biggest problem is dumping the water. If you dump that outside somewhere over time it will become a.big mound of a mess since it will take years to break down. It won’t break down in a week or two like dog poop after a good rainstorm or two. Some people suggested getting a big strainer. You can dump the solid part in the trash but over time you will have serious plumbing issues if you dump the liquid down the drain each week. It contains sediment from the dust and dirt which if done month after month will stick to the drain pipes and eventually close them up causing reduced flow and them complete blockage. It’s the same harm as rinsing off grouting tools if you do ceramic tile work or drywall tools if you do spackling and rinse it down a drain. I’m a contractor of 3 decades so I know these things 🤟🏼🌟 Otherwise I would really enjoy buying one of these for myself since I have a dog and two cats.
Flush down the toilet
@@cr3062 The sediment and hairs will clog your drain over time but you won’t notice it right away. . That would be more of a disaster if you have a septic tank.
I used to have a Rainbow vac many years ago and loved it! I think my ex-husband took it in the divorce 😆 But I hate watching dust fly out of my vacuum especially during these times. I may check this one out👍
Which vacuum do you have where there's dust flying out?
Great review..... thanks made it easier to decide
I just got mine...so far so good! I do find it difficult to click canister back on...takes me a couple tryst. Other then that I'm really excited about it. Since I have 2 large dogs and need to good product that's has me keep on top of dog hair.
I love that there is no bag..I used one today work..super cool
Just used my new vacuun and love the way it cleans. It is heavy but I am glad I bought it.
Vacuun
I've read in other sites that its cheaply made, parts breaking off, loses suction after a few uses, there are issues that one would regret spending $500.
Great review straight to the point loved it
I do like the no filter but it is hard to maneuver. Also it is very heavy and doesn’t roll well on carpet or area rugs once it is turned off. It is also hard to clean out the water reservoir. I didnt think about disposing of debris, I wouldn’t have purchased the vacuum.
I just pulled mine out of the box....and LOVE IT. The only thing I'm trying to figure out is how to attach the hose....which is why I am here. I would buy this again. The motor is STRONG and my big rugs look better than they have for years...Lint and cat hairs, be gone. And, I just dumped the waste water outside into a hole in the ground.....It was nasty---that means it really picked stuff up!! (I've been using central vacs for years and they are wimps!) SOLD!!
I'm happy to learn there is an upright that uses water filtration. Does it have a switch to turn the power nozzle off? Is the water filtration as good when you clean under furniture and tilt the machine down?
Does the cord get in the way? One of my vacs has the cord coming out of the machine AT THE FLOOR! I have to always hold it to keep it out of the way. Hope someone will respond to this as I can find a vid that shows this issue for me.
I Love this vacuum. Does it have a cord winder I could buy
How do I change belt I borrowed my moms vacume I wanted to see is it worth the price omg I love it butt now the things not turning on bottom so I'm assuming the belt is broken
Love my Quantum but now I can get it to stay running. The motor starts but stops soon after. Checked the cord..... any advise for service?
My question is, how the water works to sucks the dirt? The way i see from the video is this think dont't have any seperator mechanism to push the dust to the water.. If This mechanism is not there, is impossible to get good filtration,yaa off course you don't need any filter or etc, how about the output? Because if sucks as much as that but also blow the residue back to the air again, what for you using the Vacuum? Is that any test that measure how much dust that goes again back to the air?
I have had Rainbows with water filtration and I have kitties so I pour the water through a strainer in the toilet and then toss the debris in the trash. ❤
How do you store the power cord? There isn't a place to wrap it around like other vacuums.
I never got samples?when I bought it??I can’t seem to open the part that holds the wet and dry hoses
I like mine, it does a great job. But the big cons for me: you can't just vacuum & put it away, because if you don't clean out the water canister, it STINKS bad (and that was just waiting overnight). And if you have pets, you need to be sure to clean out the inside of black 'S' curbed insert - it can hold a lot of wet hair. Last - for the money it needs a cord keeper & the attachments are not mounted. So when I was downstairs & realized I wanted to use the hose, I had run up & grab it. Would be nice to have them right there.
That's awesome how you can get under things now being disabled it sucks to try and vacuum! But I have a feeling it's out of my price range 😓
Between $329-399.
where did you buy it with all these attachments included
I just got my vacuum and I thought the bottom was already extended so I connected it to the bottom but it's not on right and I can't remove it. I called for help but can't get through to anyone. Help!!!
Thank you!!!
I have a Rainbow that I absolutely LOVE because it literally DOES EVERYTHING! It even has other attachments you can buy for washing floors and carpet cleaning. I love how tough my Rainbow vac is. It takes a beating sometimes. It’s definitely heavy duty. I even use it as a small leaf blower on porches after I clean the house I’m cleaning. This one looks good, but compared to the Rainbow, doesn’t come close. How many times do you have to dump that water when cleaning a whole house full of dog hair or a lake house with windows that have longjaw spider webs everywhere? The amount of water my Rainbow vac water basin holds, makes it where I only have to dump it one time without refilling on a large house that is well kept and dump twice to refill once on really messy dog-hair houses or deep cleans that have bugs everywhere. This water basin seems small and would need to be dumped and refilled multiple times. How fast is the psi? The Rainbow psi is like 60mph. I’m not a Rainbow salesman either. A customer showed me this vacuum and thought I’d check it out. I guess for a backup, I’d have this vacuum over a Shark Apex. I’ve used almost all brands; all models of Sharks (the Apex is the best one), most models of Dyson, Hoovers, Dirt Devils, Bissels, Kirby and Eureka and I’ve done all kinds of cleaning jobs. The Rainbow is the ONLY vacuum that meets to my OCD standards. It too makes the air fresher, but I don’t use synthetic fragrances, I use a few drops of essential oils. The newest Rainbow, E2 series also doubles as an air filter on the lower setting. I would be curious to try this though, just to see how it performs. I have been thinking about buying a backup, especially for the house because when I’m off cleaning, my teenagers don’t have a vacuum to clean my house with when I am at work. I am also currently pregnant and carrying my Rainbow up stairs is becoming challenging, maybe this could be my backup for multiple story houses and when I get really far along in my third trimester, something more lightweight and easier to carry might be good to have. How heavy duty is the hose? Does it get clogged easily and if it does, how do you unclog it? With my Rainbow, I just switch it to the blower side and it blows the debris that’s causing the clog, right out of the hose, hence the reason I found out it doubles as a small leaf blower for porches.
But the rainbow is thousands of dollars more!
If you clean homes/apartments for a living or a side hustle, then it makes sense to have a dependable thousand(s) dollar machine. Believe me, if I could afford one, I wouldn't hesitate getting a rainbow.
If you can afford a rainbow, that is great. Many of us cannot. So, to get a machine that will do a satisfactory job at a much lesser price. Well, it's a bargain and a blessing.
How is the crevice tool on dryers
The black insert in the water canister comes out for easier cleaning.
I used to have the rainbow. Do you think it work more or less the same?
How does it work with hair on hard wood floors?
Does anyone have experience with the brush seizing to turn? I’ve already cleaned it. Please and thank you.
Hit the Reset button on the right of the head
I don't see how the hose attaches to the vacuum and how is it stored on the vacuum , the pictures don't show the hose at all, that's why I clicked on the video, and again, big mistake, do you just carry the hose around while you vacuum ? or do you have to attach it every time you need to use it, which I do about 50 times while I vacuum
0:39...Dang, no appliance attachment with which you can vacuum underneath the stove and the fridge? One of those three plastic wands could have been made flat with holes to suck up all the dust off the refrigerator coils.
I ordered this..in colbalt blue..saw all this. I received mine today. Was put off because I didn't have an option of purchasing a cord storage. Didn't know I needed it until I paid for and 2 weeks later received the vacuum. I purchased the extra packages..but I have no way to store the cord. 🙄😳
Try 3M hooks in opposite directions so you can store the cord on the vacuum itself.
So does it clean with the water or does the water just stay in the tank and catch the dirt?
Amy Glanister it just catches the dirt
It does clean well,but I have a real problem with taking the tank off and replacing it. My hands aren’t strong enough..arthritis..and it is really heavy.
The 3 year warranty is concerning. The concept is amazing but I don’t think the suction is that strong and the quality is not there or the manufacturer would be confident to give a 10 year warranty like other water vacuums.
dcentral The only other water vac is The Rainbow and it didn’t come with a 10 yr warranty I don’t know anywhere that gives 10 yr warranty anymore How many years does a Dyson have since that line is very expensive
ValerieW Dyson is an absolute garbage company that runs on brand name recognition. Their vacuums have been pulled by Consumer Reports for bad quality that they no longer recommend them. Rainbow does come with a 10 year warranty as does Sirena vacuum.
@@valeriew5934 Valerie, Aerus Electrolux does have a 5 yr motor warranty on the Aerus Classic, 10 yr motor warranty on the Aerus Legacy, and the Aerus Guardian Platinum has a 15 yr motor warranty. In the past, Aerus Electrolux had a 25 year motor warranty on the first Guardian introduced in 1999. Also, Sebo has a 10 yr motor warranty on the D4 canister, and Miele canisters come with a 7 yr motor warranty on ALL their models, including the Chinese made lower end models. You can find vacuums from reputable manufacturers with long warranties. The one thing most of them have in common? They are NOT made in China, or if they are the components are made elsewhere and the body and final assembly is done in China.
How do I get the hose off
I notice the air suction tube is no longer submerged in the water when unit tilted or laid down. Where does the dirt go when this happens????
I have my vacuum a few months I just discover the brush is not turning? I'm so disappointed I paid alat many for.
oh my god it’s the everybody loves Raymond vacuum
No, that's the one and only Rainbow 🌈 this isn't the Humm Vac but an imitation of it.
Axl XA there is a higher quality rainbow clone called the Sirena designed in Italy made in China. Ironically it’s actually quieter than the Rainbow E2 even the black model. For those that want the real deal, schedule a demo on the rainbow website, haggle the seller into giving you the lowest price possible, give them your money, and enjoy your new Rainbow SRX.
@@davidperry4013 thank you for the tips! I appreciate it! 😉
Yes!!!! That's the first thought that came in my mind after seeing this!
It states in manual, you can dump dirty water into toilet.
0:18 was try to get a hold of parts replacement
I used tons of different vacuums and I can tell you the best one I ever had is the Rainbow even know I spend $3k on it it’s worth it. Made in the USA and will last you your life time. They have 12 month no interest payments and that’s how I paid for it.
Many of us would disagree with you about the Rainbow being worth $3k, and there is no guarantee that it will last your lifetime without expensive repairs. I know of people who had Rainbows that did not last even 10 years. I'm amazed at how many fairly new Rainbows I see for sale on Facebook marketplace and other local sale web sites. I'd like to see Rainbow give buyers 30 days instead of 72 hours to cancel the sale, but it would likely kill 50% of their sales. If I were to buy, I would purchase used from a reputable vac store that offers a warranty through their shop. Rainbow vacuums are extremely noisy, and I don't like the power nozzles. I actually think the E-2 black model is better than the gimmicky new SRX.
I couldn’t even push it. Omg 16 lbs. it went back
Nice..
How about use the toliet. Your own body waste goes into the toliet.
because the sediment will clog your pipes overtime
The top just pops off to pour out the water
I have a client who insusts I use her Quantum X and I honestly have to say I HATE this vacuum! It's HEAVY, coming in over 25 pounds with water added. There is no ability to turn off the brush head for hard surface floors. The suction is garbage. I ran this vacuum over a rug 3 times, and my Shark Stratos Ultralight Stick still filled its canister with pet hair! And the way you attach the hose has no guarantee you won't lose even more suction.
Who carries these for sale
Amazon
If it scatters the debris, it is because of the brushroll not powerful suction. Smh.
I believe because it is clogged..you need to pull ot apart and takes out the debris..I t can clogged according to your carpet that's is it used on but the solution is to take it apart..very easy to do.
DUMP THE WATER IN THE TOILET.....
I’m getting ready to buy one
The guy said that dumping the (unfiltered) dirty water down the toilet is likely to create a toilet clog down the line. One commenter mentioned to use a large dedicated tea strainer to filter out the large chunks, throw them in the trash, then dump the remaining dirty water down the drain, which could include the toilet.
It isn’t worth it
@@LifeInADay-July I wouldn't have a problem dumping it down the toilet! Treatment plants can break down hair and fiber's! And you wouldn't be picking up anything that could break it! I'd have to then rinse it in the tub! Cheap apartments with no utility sink!
@@me4654 You can dump the dirty water but definitely strain it if you have dogs. The dog hair it picked up was a solid mat of hair. It definitely would have caused some issues in our plumbing. I put that in the trash. I love the idea of a dedicated strainer that someone recommended. I am going to do that!
absolutely do not do that
front light don't work. and no where to hang cord. i am not buy the Extra one they offer
How much do these costs
I've seen $399 as the usual price
This is the worst purchase I have ever made. It has never worked right and they keep sending me parts back and forth And it gets expensive. It simply does not pick up dirt and the water stays clear. I did a lot of research to get a good vacuum because I have a lot of health problems. This has just caused frustration.
Where did you buy yours ??? I’ve been trying to buy one, but it’s kind of scetchy ! I’m not sure if it’s a scam ! The website has 2 different numbers and different advertised prices. Once I put payment info in it shows a blank page and I get no email confirming my order. Please help ! Could you give me the phone number of the company you bought yours from ???
online states Walmart and Bed, Bath, and Beyond sell them.
I Hate Mine Heavy and hard to use
Automatically defeats the purpose once you go under something.
Es muy pesado
Bathtub! lol dump it down any drain should be fine.
EXTREMELY HEAVY, DIFFICULT TO PIVOT AND MANEUVER - I AM RETURNING MINE
I am a 74 year old male and do not find this machine difficult to pivot or maneuver at all, and very easy to push and pull.
I agree that the vac is a little heavy. The center of gravity is higher than with other vacuums and because of the oval shape of the body you do have to learn to control it in a different way. This is emphasized when it is extended. I feel like I get an arm workout in addition to a clean rug.
Why would you use only water to clean pet stains ? That is not going to kill germs. A cleaning solution is required.
You are correct that you would need to clean the urine. These water filtration vacuums use water as the filter medium. The water doesn't touch the carpet, it just absorbs the dirt. You could use the vacuum to suck up the urine before cleaning the carpet with your pet urine enzyme cleaner. This is a vacuum not a carpet cleaner.
This is actually the worst vacuum I have ever owned. Not only does it not pick up any anything, it actually leaves dirt behind, particularly pet hair.
Just wondering you probably checked and double check that everything is hooked up correctly.
Ya same with mine. Doesn't grab pet hair at all
You’re better off with something like a Sebo felix. Large HEPA bags which you can fill up tons without losing suction. The brush is aggressive enough to pick up pet hair and can be switched off or the whole head changed for hard floors. It’s super low profile and will fit under most furniture and it’s made in Germany so you know it’s quality.
bruh
I haven’t had my quantum that long, and it’s already broke down so I gave it a thumbs down
Dump the dirty water in the toilet. Don’t be ridiculous. It can handle a turd going down the toilet I’m sure can handle a little bit of dirty water. I
it's not just a bit of dirty water it's all the sediment that's in your carpet as well skin .pet hair ..
the suction sucks
Boi
It's a gimmick, sorry...
fuck off
@@FrenchFryCheese04 🤣🤣🤣
Way overpriced,stopped suction within six months hose brroke within a week.very cheaply made.Shark 100 percent better and lasts😢
Is very heavy,heaviest vaccuum I have ever had.not good for a bad back
