Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this machine after seeing an add on TV. I got the machine home, and was actually excited about vacuuming. The UV light on the vacuum seemed to do a good job at destroying all the dust mites in my carpet. I have to say it looks very cheap, and doesn't look very durable. Within a month and half of receiving this machine, I began to have problems with UV light. It would turn on sometimes, and sometimes it would not come on at all. Finally it stopped working all together.
I was able to find a local repair shop who is a warranty station for Halo vacuums. I dropped it off over 3 weeks ago, and the owner of the shop keeps telling me he is waiting on the part. This is very frustrating as I know have to go back to my ultra-heavy 15 year old Kirby which I kept only for the basement.
My experience with this Halo has been the vacuum is great when it is working, but the service after the sale has left a lot to be desired.

Equipped with ultraviolet-light technology, this full-size vacuum cleaner kills potentially dangerous micro-organisms and pathogens living--and reproducing--unseen, in carpets, mattresses, and other home fabrics. Germicidal ultraviolet light, or UV-C light, provides the most effective way to eradicate unseen and unwanted pests without the use of chemicals. Simply run the unit over carpets like with a normal vacuum, then activate the UV-C bulb with the trigger on the handle to instantly and safely deactivate the DNA of dust mites, viruses, bacteria, fleas, lice, and mold. The unit also provides HEPA filtration, which removes 99.97 percent of harmful particles from the air, plus an odor-reducing carbon filter to keep the air fresh.
Furthermore, the vacuum cleaner offers energy-efficient operation thanks to two strategically placed motors: one to generate powerful suction and one to drive the brush bar. Because of this dual-motor design, using the brush bar does not compromise the vacuum's performance. The motor generating the powerful suction provides 35,000 RPMs and the dedicated, strong brush-bar motor spins at 5,000 RPMs. For above-floor cleaning, a 13-foot detachable hose, crevice tool, and dusting brush come included for cleaning stairs, furniture, and fabrics. Other highlights include five different height levels for various types of floors--from carpet and rugs to tile and wood, a 31-foot power cord, and a lightweight design at less than 17 pounds for easy maneuverability. Four dust bags come included. The vacuum cleaner, with its powerful suction and germicidal action, measures approximately 14 by 12 by 45 inches and carries a one-year warranty.
