Don't buy this - There is no difference at all. They already stop making this model because of all the problems. Macy's and Sears drop the line.

I bought the item thinking it was the best and it has proven to be so. It really is a fantastic unit . My floors can be done in a very short time and I can move on to other projects .

I had the Electrolux Oxygen. Was in the trash after year one. First, it's not a real Electrolux, but is a Eureka....it's all plastic. Mine had to have the entire handle replaced at about $100 because the electrical wire running through the inside of it shorted out. I hear they have a lot of electrical problems. Next is has very very small bags!!. I bought mine at Lowe's. The only good things about it...it was quiet, and had a huge floor brush about 14" wide. Still, I highly discourage anyone from buying it.

My parents had the lower priced alternative. We really liked it, so we bought one for our family. I chose the more expensive one because it seemed to have a more powerful and more importantly, quieter motor. It also seemed like the more expensive one was a little bit more heavy duty and would last longer. Hope this helps. Either way, you will be happy with the result. So good.

I contacted Hoover and was told this, for anyone else who wants to know. The only difference is the 7411 is plum and the 7412 is black. Thats a pretty big price difference for wanting the same machine in a different color!

The difference between Shark Lift Around Vacuum model# NP320, NP318, and NP319 are all the same unit, the differences are the accessories included. They all come with the detachable tool caddy, dusting brush, upholstery brush, crevice tool, flexible hose, telescopic tube, and the shoulder strap. NP318 only has all the tools mentioned above. NP319 has all of the tool mentioned above plus a power brush. NP320 has all of the tools mentioned above and also comes with a power brush, a straight suction floor tool, and a floor kit handle.

I think the physical vacuums are the same but the HEPA or $495 vacuum comes with the HEPA bag/filter/screw kit. I bought the the HEPA version just about 6 months ago and it was $368, so it was definitely cheaper to buy the HEPA version outright instead of the HEPA accessory package and the vacuum separarely. Now it seems it's $100 cheaper to to buy the vacuum and HEPA kit separately. Don't forget you also need to buy the foam filter to use this as a wet vac, it is not included and don't think of using this to vacuum joint compound dust without the HEPA kit or you'll kill it. It is an amazing quiet powerful vacuum, just irritating you have to buy everything separately.

Hoover Linx is great as a second vacuum. It's light weight and does a good job if you don't have a lot of carpet. The problem I had with it was that if you don't lock it in an upright positon and it falls, the handle breaks. This happened and I bought Linx to replace it and it happened again. This time I called Hoover and they sent me another handle.

For me, I like the Hoover Linx because it has one speed for carpets and one for wood floors. My dad said always trust a hoover. I have bought other brands, but end up burying a Hoover.

Signature has a more powerful vacuum motor. I think it also has upgraded firmware that allows it map and clean a room more efficiently.

Someone answered that the difference is that the platinum was a full upright with a cord....then why would it be called cordless? Would love to have the correct answer too.

I can't tell you what the differences are as I am not acquainted with those models. However I love the one I have. It has plenty of power and is very user friendly. Switches easily for different cleaning needs. I have no regrets with this vacuum.

According to HP, the Platinum editition is 6X faster than the regular one. While this might be true, it is however not worth to pay 50% more. The traditional one exceeds my expectations anyway. After all, at least for myself, an average user of this calculator would not notice the speed difference under normal circumstances. So, my suggestion would be, stick to the older one and save about $23.

I bought the Easy Clean 71B (Yellow) and am very happy with it. It is over 1 pound lighter than this Rapid Clean model with only slightly less power. Overall I have been very impressed with the suction power, the ability to turn on/off brushes and the long cord and crevice tool. I would recommend it due to the lower weight and lower price.

As far as I can tell the main difference is that the 918 model has a heating mechanism for hot water, and removable scrubbers for easy cleaning of the machine. I have been told by my vaccum guy not to get the ones with heaters, as everything in the machines is plastic and the heating mechanism is just to hot for all the plastic and tends to break. I never had that problem with my old machine and it had a heater. The one i have now doesn't have a heater, I just put hot water into the tank and it works just fine. I hope this helps. I love my machine, does soooo much better than my Bissell. I have had a couple bissells and the Hoover is alot better as it sucks the watere/solution from the carpet very well, the bissell always left the carpet very wet.
