carpet brush does not turn off

I gave the vacuum as a Christmas Gift. The suction is really good, however the carpet brush will not disengage to do bare floors. I selected this model primarily to do both types of floors. I have been having trouble getting in contact with Eureka, but will keep trying.............more later
Excellent Vac

The Eureka Boss works great! Do not hesitate to purchase this product. It does everything it says it does, great suction. It's a little difficult to put back in its upright position, but this is the only downside I've seen. Great price for the quality!
A great vacuum!

I bought this after researching on consumer reports and I'm so glad I did. It works great, has lasted >3 years so far with no decrease in sucking power. Gets the dog hair out of my carpet and makes it look like new - easy as pie! I'd have to agree with others about 2 small flaws: foot lever is tough to use and hose could be longer but really I couldn't ask for more!
Great vacuum for pet owners with carpet

I replaced my Kirby Legend II with the Eureka 4870 Boss after having severe problems with pet hair fouling the Kirby brush roll. The Eureka absolutely devours dog hair off carpet. We have short and medium pile carpet, plus some hard floors. The switch for the brushroll is handy when running the vac in the kitchen, however, the air blowing out the HEPA filter in front of the vac scatters hair and dust. The suction through the hose is adequate (though nothing like the Kirby or a good canister) and it reaches a fair distance. Using this vac for a year has shown a couple of bad points. The hose falls out of its storage clips and gets in the way. Handling is awkward and the bags are small, filling quickly with dog hair. Minor issues. The Eureka 4870 is a darn good value for its price, and seems to be built well enough to last a few years of regular use.

I have been using an oreck which is advertised as having the most suction power, but it wouldn"t pick up dog hair. I found your web sight and after reading Consumer Reports on this vaccum, I was ready to give it a try. WOW, one swipe and all the dog hair is gone from the carpet. I have a white German Sheperd and boy does he shed. My husband was leary of the vaccum claims, but boy did he EAT HIS WORDS when he saw the results. I recomend this vaccum to anyone who has indoor pets. You can"t go wrong.
