Love it
By K. Johnson
We've owned this vacuum now for 5 years. I bought it b/c I was sick of buying "new plastic" vacuums every 18 months for $200. While this vacuum is expensive, it has never required repair. If you buy it from a royal vacuum shop, you get 5 or 8 year factory warranty and the shops usually offer free cleanings every 6 months.I drop off a full dirty vacuum and it comes back with the bristles cleaned and a fresh bag and a tune up - free!It's all metal - so no cheapie plastic parts breaking off.AND - it's suction and cleaning is absolutely fantastic.

By 71Stang
I bought my Royal in 1996 and it is still working. A year ago I had to take it tothe dealer and have the bushings replaced in the motor as it was starting to make high-pitched noise. Cost about $30. Other than that, its been great for me.Now here are the cons: My wife and daughters NEVER liked using it. Yours probably won't either. Why, because it is heavy and not pretty or trendy. Exactly the reasons that I like it. They are right in one respect: it is noisier than most vacuums and has tendencies to squeak or vibrate a little. So what?The thing you can count on: it has lots of power to clean the carpet - the primary reason to buy the thing. And it will last for two reasons: it is simple with no doodads; and it its housing and motor are well-built.My only real concern: my vacuum store guy tells me that the Royal company has been bought by Hoover and they don't really care to support the Royal line much any more. For instance, I cannot get the micro-type bags for it any more - which I must have to reduce the dust blow-off! So beware if this matters to you.

We bought our Royal Everlast in 2006. It has given wonderful service. This vacuum is well built. The quality is very apparent. The suction is so powerful that it lifts the carpet off of the floor and pulls it against the nozzle.At the time of this review, you can buy a new Royal Everlast on Ebay for [...] w/ free shipping.Some don'ts that I will offer for buying vacuums:Don't buy any Royal upright vacuum cleaner except the Royal Everlast or its commercial equivalent.Don't ever buy a vacuum cleaner at a garage sale. People have such a hard time finding a good vacuum cleaner, that almost noone sells a good one if they have one. My parents bought at least 20 garage sale vacuums over the years and not one of them, not even the old Kirby, was worth a dime.Don't buy a Dyson. The vacuum shop owner that sold me my Royal Everlast told me that he has been inside of thousands of vacuum cleaners to repair them and that the Dyson is built of parts that should go into a $100 vacuum cleaner. I asked him why he had several Dysons on his showroom floor. He answered that some people are just determined to buy a Dyson. If he could not talk them out of buying a Dyson, he would sell them one.
