[@kalebanoe6176]

Thank you so much for doing a review on this. I never thought I would actually see my own comment and see you review this vacuum cleaner. thank you so much for this video I will definitely not be ordering this vacuum cleaner and buy a Zero g instead because of what I saw in the video.

[@PerformanceReviews]

Thanks for watching and commenting again! I think the Zero G is a much better value.

[@resigningstars]

Thank you for posting this!!!

[@gaylestevenson1877]

The cord is to be wrapped into a circle and placed over the handle until later use. With this vacuum, the hose tool needs to be used on hard floors. Two hose pieces are included to attach to the hose to make it long enough to comfortable vacuum hard floors. I LOVE this vacuum. NO DUST. It's the best ever if for no other reason. It vacuum is heavy and I had to get used to it and still am but it is beautiful, it works, it produces no dust, and I can add good smell to air as I vacuum. Did I tell you I LOVE this vacuum? I do.

[@enescohuntejr]

May need to jump in the review game. Thank you I was struggling with this cord.

[@yolandahoward7610]

Wow thanks for the review I seriously wanted this machine

[@PerformanceReviews]

Glad I could help

[@PRSITES]

I have one of these vacuums, and the craftsmanship leaves plenty to be desired. The rubber flap on the collection bin fell out, to their credit they replaced it no questions asked. And the second issue is the brush drive motor. The pressed on gear has a collar on it that exploded and resulted in the motor mount being damaged, leaving the vacuum unusable. I contacted their support again and was informed that because I opened it they would not support their product short of me paying out of pocket for all the repairs and shipping. My advice is steer clear of this as the quality is not near what they market as.

[@mikearrigo5674]

I have the Quantum canister cleaner, it's actually really nice but sounds like they really went down hill with this upright. I have a lot of the water based cleaners but don't use them much anymore, I use my central vacuums more than anything now since they clean the best.

[@MaryB_TN]

I sure wish there'd have been a professional review like this 14 months ago before I got one. I know I'm in the minority, but I do believe in the water filtration vacuum concept. I'd wanted a Rainbow for 30 years but was not paying $4,000 for a vacuum! I really liked this upright version and I got it September, 2021. Luckily I spent less on a certified like new refurbished model. When I first got it, I thought it was the cat's meow. It really did clean extremely well. But over time, the cracks in the facade started showing. This thing is HEAVY with no carry handle at all, so it's a huge struggle trying to carry it upstairs and downstairs ugh. Then a piece broke. So, I got a Sirena about 2 months ago and I am so in love with it. Huge difference in performance, quality, air purification and it has a HEPA exhaust filter as a backup. Hoses are sturdy, a canister is MUCH more beneficial and it has a ton of useful, versatile attachments. Wish I'd have never gotten the Quantum X 😔 I know you're not a fan if water vacuums but for those of us like them, what are your thoughts on the Sirena?

[@warzshadow9701]

With your Sirena, do you have a difficult time using the carpet power head? Is it hard to push on carpet?

[@nonelost1]

Thank you for doing this video. PR! I had been considering getting one of those, but not anymore!

[@piezoman79]

That looks like a whole lot of fun having to clean all that gunk out of the vacuum every time I’d use it 😂 Think I’ll stick with my bagged sebos!

[@craglabrake6802]

I know I always thank you for doing these videos, yet I can't explain how helpful these videos are! I would much prefer sticking with my Oreck, Miele, or 1970s Electrolux canister vacuum over this! Fantastic job!

[@UWDawgMom]

I totally agree. My weakest vacuum is a Shark Stratos Ultralight Stick and it picks up far more than this vacuum.

[@Catalina0918]

Recently saw the commercial for said product. When looking at anything, I do research from regular people, not the company, before purchasing. So glad I found your product review as I really liked this sweeper. Thank you, I will NOT be purchasing. Keep up the great work!

[@PerformanceReviews]

An alternative that actually delivers would be the SEBO Dart or FELIX

[@skywind007]

Fantastic review. It's an interesting concept that needs some big refinements.

[@dgwriter478]

I didn’t even open the package and will be returning it tomorrow. I wish I would have seen your review first.

[@antoniogonzalez3317]

Thanks for the information

[@scottd1432]

I'm really glad I didn't end up buying one of these. Was tempted a few times but sheesh, it would have wound up at goodwill!

[@tonyrobinson4434]

So this machine is a modern high-tech failure. I guess if the designers had created an App for the users to install on their smartphone may have improved it.

[@joehannell1280]

Thank you for your review. I was debating about buying one, but I wanted to see what other customers are saying.

[@michaeld954]

Here's something funny watching your video a commercial for the actual vacuum came on

[@PerformanceReviews]

I love getting paid by the company I did the video on.

[@carolinabarbershop]

How do you clean the beater bar? Or access the hose in the power nozzle?

[@AfterDark33]

I don’t know what it is, but anyone who makes a water filtration vacuum always seems to be some kind of hack company. The Quantum X website looks like something I just got redirected to as a scam product, the Prolux CTX has terrible website too. The Sirena system tries to sell itself with other appliances for some reason. The H2O vac (if you remember that thing) was As Seen on Tv-Tastic. The Rainbow is the only one with a cromulent website, but you have to buy the damn thing from a salesman!They all try to sell their products as some sort of cleaning revolution despite it being more of a gimmick than anything. Not to mention that they’re all built like pretty much crap and are all just trying to clone the Rainbow, which as far as I can tell, is still the only water vacuum worth buying, but even then, it’s price tag is astronomical!

[@FrenchFryCheese04]

Send death threats to them then

[@bridezorko9031]

I have one of these, the nozzle attachment part busted and the customer service as been non-existent, like that they don't answer their phone AT ALL. I've been trying to get a hold of them for months to replace the part so I've been stuck using my cordless vacuum on my carpets which is nearly useless. I'm sick of vacuum's with cheap parts, my electrolux broke in this same place 3 separate times which they sent replacement parts until the last time because it was discontinued even with a valid warranty!

[@timconnell5878]

Nice review.

[@lyscottrell380]

Thank you. I was going to buy one. But not anymore.

[@IWishIDidntExist2333]

You have no idea how happy I am about this. This is an insanely quirky machine, I wonder how It will do. edit:typo

[@Dankcatvacs]

Sweet! been curious on your thoughts on this one. Seemed questionable. I wish you would put more debris down for mess test. Hard to see. edit the second pickup test was better... Wow even worse than a shark navigator 😵‍💫😄😯

[@Upper_echelon_exotics]

So glad I watched this before I even seriously considered getting this. I am not happy with our current vacuum but I'm not sure what is better. So I guess I'll be watching more reviews. Not super excited about that but it's better then wasting money.

[@PerformanceReviews]

This video might be of help kzbin.info/www/bejne/oavLdZKdqbKohK8

[@timothyfosberg6408]

I read the reviews on this vacuum, they were horrible. Thanks for the review Alex, Iam sure you helped a lot of people run from this piece of junk.

[@jmdennis1967]

One thing I did not know about when I bought it was they tell you not to use it if you have cats. I guess because of the cat litterl I like the idea of not having filters but having the water doing the filtering but glad to see the honest review.

[@PerformanceReviews]

Waters about as good a filter as air. If you have cats I'd highly recommend SEBO,Miele & Lindhuas all of which will handle cat litter with ease.

[@ItalianMetalHED]

I’ll stick with my navigator pro duo which has barefloor feature that slows the rolls which half are felt and nylon plush

[@les2998]

Gets some screws install cord hooks. Then get a container for the water. screw it on the handle. Drill a hole in both dust bin and water tank. Get a hose and put the hose in the holes drilled. Then zip tie afilter on exhaust or maybe duct tape the filter on. Then you'd have a cfos.

[@PerformanceReviews]

Pure genius! 😁

[@MinecraftPro97k]

nah, fill the machine up witb gasoline instead of water.

[@jennifersetser9091]

You have been watching the Red Green show way too much.

[@My1985Toyhouse]

The vac head does not swivel, which makes it harder to get around things.

[@anthonys808channel7]

The part where they showed the two people measuring the vacuum, you can hear the guy on the right getting frustrated as he says fuckin thing. 😂😂😂

[@nancybaker4005]

Thank you for the info...it looked good on the ad with the water, but I have really long hair...so when I saw the roller I got bummer out, also it was very load...why don't they make a vaccum w/o a roller so everything gets suckered up...thanks again, Nancy

[@nancybaker4005]

I meant sucked up...

[@PerformanceReviews]

They do make vacuums like that. I would look at a Miele C3 HomeCare or a central vacuum

[@nattamused9074]

What’s your alternative recommendation? Do you have another water filtration machine of comparable cost and performance?

[@PerformanceReviews]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/oavLdZKdqbKohK8

[@mattheviewer]

Quantumvac does have a website listing history, price, tutorials and a whole bunch of testimonials (won't provide link but simply type QuantumX vac into a search engine and you'll find 'em). It sold for $579 but is currently listed at $349 (limited availability).

[@MaryB_TN]

They're using deceptive advertising practices. They keep saying, "Buy now at $100 off" or "$150 off"," but the truth is the price has never been the fully-listed price. $399 is the max I've ever seen it offered. And they even have a "countdown clock," making you think you need to hurry and otder it or lose the "sale price." Total high pressure tactic. They should ethically be showing the listed price at the $399, then if they do lower it to $349 for a sale, it's truth in advertising

[@robertlenahan5375]

Thanks for the review. So the filter medium is water? I've never heard of that! Was wondering how all that water got in the dust bin. Gross!

[@lsaez479]

Is there a similar vaccum you would recommend? I have 2 dogs 2 cats and adults kids. I need something heavy duty. I have a Dyson I'm not impressed. I love the idea of water filtration I can just dump. Any help greatly appreciated.

[@PerformanceReviews]

[@user-ns5ux5sr1x]

Where does the hose go

[@vincemajestyk9497]

I was just given one new in the box, never opened, which I didn't even really want. They were bugging me for almost a year to take it. I KNEW it looked like hokey garbage and wouldn't work the minute I saw the 'water' filter. Just like those trashy Rainbows. My old man sold those Rainbows in 1978/79 and even he said they were a scam. People would just look at the trash mixed with the water and were mentally horrified that all that 'dirt' was in their home. My friend's Mom got ripped on ShopHQ for $349.99 for this garbage. I'll just stick with my Dyson DC41 and Oreck for a back-up. This thing sounds like some real half-ass engineering with no brush shut off. I just opened the box and looked at it and put it all back in. It's pure insanity to deal with cleaning all that trash and nastiness everytime you vacuum. Rip-off city. Never ever heard of 'Quantum' before so I knew it sounded sketchy.

[@acclaimedhousecleaning7555]

I have wanted one of these for quite some time. Thank you for this review as I honestly couldn't justify paying the price for such a gimmicky unit. If some company could create a good water-based upright unit with hepa filtration I would consider it. This one just is not that! Thank you again!

[@MaryB_TN]

The Sirena water filtration vacuum actually has a HEPA filter in addition to the water basin for added filtration. It's not an upright. It's a canister but has a lot of attachments to use on literally anything in the house. I got the Quantum X in 2021, and it fell out of favor with me pretty fast after the initial excitement wore off LOL. It's not worth the high price. The Sirena, on the other hand, is high quality to me. Very sturdy hoses and useful attachments. The additional HEPA filter at the exhaust gives me peace of mind that I'm not polluting my air. In fact, it also has a separate air purification and aromatizing feature that I love. The price is only 1/5th that of Rainbow, and they sell refurbished ones also at a lower price. Sirena is the first canister vacuum I have ever owned in 40 years of my "adulting" and I'd never go back to an upright for my main house cleaning. Hope this helps!

[@jimgargas2480]

I really think people see the disgusting water and think it’s doing a great job; irrespective of the amount of cleaning required. A bag vac is so much simpler and yet way more effective.

[@MaryB_TN]

Very true....that is their big selling point. I got one in 2021....before this review 😔. And yes, the water basin was pretty yuk after using it. But it's starting to fall apart...poor quality. So, I got a Sirena water filtration vacuum last September. It's a canister, high quality, great attachments, and also has a final HEPA filtration at the exhaust. I don't like bagged, though. I'm mentally stuck in the 70s and 80s, when bagged vacs clogged quickly, lost suction, and polluted the air with dust and odors. I do know there are great bagged options now like Miele and Sebo, but I personally like the purified air smell from using a water vac. The Quantum X just was the all-around wrong choice. I'm hoping to be able to sell it and recoup some of my money

[@Ca31_Buff]

I’ve never heard one of these before. I honestly though it would have sounded similar to a shark or something, not that loud deep motor sound. 🤨

[@BluePearlAcupunctureofVirginia]

We have this vac. I like it but it's VERY HEAVY! Not a vacuum you could easily haul up/down stairs. So, I'm using my Kenmore canister vac upstairs and this one downstairs. Also, there's no where to coil the cord which is a drag. I do like that our house doesn't smell like dirty dogs when I vacuum!

[@PerformanceReviews]

Vacuum cleaners should never have an odor coming out of them.

[@mitchellj5212]

I would've used distilled water as a safety thing since it has no calcium in it

[@royalfourever]

Have you ever reviewed the Mach V1 ultra? It looked promising, my only concern is that there’s no hose. I bought and took back the bissell cross wave due to lack of hose and it wouldnt pick up dirt and debris in the corners and edges of my house. So no hose concerns me.

[@user-ml8xu1es9f]

Guess ill keep my rainbow. It is great. And easy to clea after use.

[@PerformanceReviews]

Canister vacuums are much easier to maneuver anyways. Just make sure you change your HEPA once a year with your rainbow.

[@281cu6]

Oh crud! I dropped the bagless canister and got disgusting water everywhere!

I keep getting the question what vacuums do I recommend here's a video on what is recommend. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oavLdZKdqbKohK8

@@PerformanceReviews thank you for this review. I wish I would’ve watched this BEFORE I purchased it but like I said, as soon as they bring it, I am telling them to return it. I’m not even going to try it out or open the box. Thanks to this review. 👍🏻

[@dianag7904]

I’m a bit late to seeing this video. What a waste of money! I can only do partial areas at a time because of the weight of the vacuum. I also was unaware of having to disassemble each time it’s used. Since purchasing I have gotten two bad shoulders and have to rest in between doing sections of the carpet. Can you recommend an upright cordless vacuum that is not heavy and does a good job?

[@MrMarcoboano]

I actually did the same test and for some reason mine worked beautifully.. what’s your reason behind shitting on this ?

[@PerformanceReviews]

Really, did you get the same working vacuum numbers? Overall it is a pretty horrendous machine to use compared to anything else in the market. Sounds like you're looking for a purchase validation rather than reality.

[@maebee5032]

Why would it need an exhaust filter?

[@PerformanceReviews]

Water's not good at filtering particulate.

[@maebee5032]

Good to know, thank you.

[@larsthorwald3338]

"Water vacuum?" Why? Seems daffy.

[@One-Day-After-Another]

I feel like their canister vacuum looked so much better. Cleaning this does look like a pain.... I don't think water/separator filtration + upright are a good combiation...

[@UWDawgMom]

I clean houses for a living. I have a client who insists I use this vacuum, and I HATE it!!! It's HEAVY. It's difficult and slow to move when off. And the water canister falls out easily. The suction is weak, and there is no way to shut off the brush roller for hard surface floors. Do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT spend the money on this.

[@PerformanceReviews]

Thanks for your feedback!

[@user-wm4mi5qd9d]

The vacuum seems to work well. The customer service is terrible.

[@anthonys808channel7]

I would have poured that vacuum container container out into the grass and wash it out outside.

Stay away from water vacuums. Just get something normal like a SEBO or Miele.
