Oreck austin

This model tended to suck in the rice, crush it up, then leave it on the carpet, rather than actually collecting it. It did even worse on the fluffy carpet, taking over 10 passes to do a barely passable job.

The Oreck did even worse at collecting flour, performing poorly on flat carpet and receiving one of the lowest scores of all our tested models. It didn't improve on fluffy carpet, doing the worst job of the entire group. For the cereal test, the Oreck also delivered a subpar performance. It did poorly on the first pass, once again crushing up the debris and spitting it out, rather than collecting it. It did about the same on the fluffy carpet, still leaving some residual debris after 14 passes.

For the oatmeal test, more of the same subpar results. It took over five passes on both flat and fluffy carpet to get somewhat clean, with plenty of debris left over.

The Oreck XL did an alright job in this set of tests, scoring just barely above average. We compared how easy it was for each model to transition between hard and soft floors, clean in close to edges and under a sofa, the maximum reach, and noise level.

The Oreck XL doesn't have any option to adjust for a hard floor, low-pile, or medium-pile carpet, so it lost some points. This model did alright at cleaning in close to edges but faltered in tight corners. It also didn't do the best at getting debris right in front of it. When cleaning under our simulated sofa, the Oreck did quite well, reaching 11"" in our test. This model also has a decently long reach, comparing favorably to others in our lineup at 37 feet.

However, it's unfortunately on the loud side, measuring in at When it came to maneuvering, this model was quite mediocre. It's light enough to easily push or pull with minimal effort but doesn't swivel like the higher-end models. And, despite a decently light weight, this vacuum doesn't have an accessory hose, making it exceptionally difficult to clean a flight of stairs.

The Oreck XL delivered a somewhat disappointing performance here as well. We again tested with flour, oats, cereal, and rice, but this time used a section of laminate wood flooring as the test surface. The Oreck did alright collecting rice, getting the vast majority of it with only two passes. Tuneups 5 Warranty 5-year limited warranty. Tuneups 3 Warranty 3-year limited warranty.
