What is Oreck Discover Upright Vacuum?

The Discover is Oreck's answer to the weight problem with upright vacuums. At 7.7 pounds excluding the cord it weighs roughly the same as a gallon of milk, which is what makes it practical to carry between floors instead of keeping a second vacuum upstairs. Oreck describes it as one of the lightest full-powered swivel-steering uprights sold in America. The SlimSwivel steering lets it turn on a spot and the low-profile body lies nearly flat to get under furniture, which is where most uprights give up. A floating nozzle adjusts automatically between hard floors and high-pile carpet with no manual height setting to remember. Oreck backs it with a 7-year limited warranty, considerably longer than the industry norm.
