Is this a HEPA vacuum? Does it have a power head attachment for carpets?

yes, it's a HEPA, but doesn't have the Turbo Plus Power Nozzle. It has an attachment that is designed for low pile carpets or bare floors.If you have medium/high pile carpet, this won't really do the job. It will pick up surface dirt.

I just bought this vacuum based on these responses. The HEPA filter does NOT come standard but you can purchase a HEPA filter that can replace the Air Clean standard filter separately. It does not have a power brush.

This is a hepa vacuum but does not have a power head. The power head is available however is not necessary in our home. No carpets.

Yes for HEPA (and even sealed, which most aren't); but no for the power attachment; you need to go a model higher or buy separately.

This model is a vacuum cleaner only. There are other attachments needed to shampoo carpets. Otherwise, this a fantastic vacuum!! I always loved Rainbows ever since I sold them in '85...wouldn't use anything else!! These are the ONLY way to get ALL the dirt out of your house!!

It does have an attachment that is supposed to steam clean carpets. I think I used mine once on an area rug.

No it does not come with a turbo head nozzle attachment, I have not used it to vacumn a room, but have used it in concentrated area's that have carpet and it does a good job. As for food I would think it would depend on the food product and size. I like the unit very much and have used it quite a bit in my home, no regrets buying it.

This S2121 Model is a model best for floors vs. carpets. It DOES come w/a power head (as shown) which does an excellent job on small, area carpets w/low pile.

The power head has 4 different height levels from hardwood to carpet, it does come with a small brush head which attaches to the main handle, separate from the power head

It does come with two heads. One has an air powered, powered by the suction, not powered by a motor head. The other head has a stationary brush. The air powered head creates a horrid noise and stalls immediately when placed on low , stiff pile carpet. The rotating brush is valueless on anything other then hard surfaces. This is sold as a hard floor vacuum and that is all it is appropriate for. I would not recommend this vacuum if you intend to maintain carpeting with it. I don't reccomend this vacuum regardless of purpose. It is nothing special and over priced for hard surface exclusive use. No HEPA filter, tips over when pulling. The cord is too short, I can go on and on. It is cute though. It does come with two heads. One has an air powered, powered by the suction, not powered by a motor head.

It does have a hepa filter. Hose and head is all you need. Power head is recommended.

It is NOT equipped with a motorized power head. It comes with an "Air Powered Floor TurboBrush."

You can use it without the power head, but then it just sucks, as it were. Needs the power head to be effective on rugs.

Hi, Beverly! No it doesn't, it's very simple vacuum. I bought it as a gift to my friend ( she has a huge 1 badroom apartment with carpet in the badroom and living room plus stairs; also she has a cat) So since last November she gratituded me many times because she really likes this vacuum. I have another Eureka vacuum almost for an year and also very happy with it. Have a great day.

I have no trouble with attachments. The power head does slow down or stop on heavy carpet or if you push down but it's great for low pile carpet. The vacuum is great for hardwood or laminate floors. Not the greatest if your entire house is thick carpet. You would need a vacuum with an electric power head for a lot of carpet. The power head on the numatic is air powered.

Are the attachments included with the vacuum. How does it clean on very thick carpets and is it hard to push. I have a hoover self propelled uprigt now.

It does not have a powered rotating brush, if that's what you're asking. I find the brush floor attachment works well at "combing" out stuff from rugs, which you then have to clean out from the brush. If you have a lot of high carpeting, I would probably say go with something else.

It is too powerful for carpet plus it does not have an attachment for carpet. I tried to buy one but was told not available. This vacuum has the most suction of any I have ever owned, it will suck throw rugs right up into it!!! Great for auto and hard surface floors such as wood or tile.

The turbo-head attachment that came with mine has a rotating brush inside the head. it works on a suction basis and is not powered (like my old Kenmore was) Be warned though, it will bind and or stop on thick pile carpet.

Rita, Yes it is. It is just as good on carpet as any of the much larger machines that I have owned. There is a slight trade off with the self adjusting head in that it doesn't pick up large pieces (dropped peanuts for example) without some maneuvering to lift the head. I do not find this problematic as the unit more than makes up for it by being able to go directly to bare floor cleaning without any adjustments.
