A pack of replacement vacuum belts for use with the Eureka 4870 Upright Vacuum / 1 Belt per Package

Customer Rating:
Summary: All reviews considered, a useful life of 3 minutes is still brief
Comment: The belt that came with the vacuum was tough and worked > 1y till a week or so ago. I replaced it a few minutes ago with this product, using two on-line versions of directions plus common sense, and I didn't even cross the room before it broke again.
Two floors, three vacuums, all Eurekas. If only the belts were as strong as an O-ring....

Summary: The Belt Will Work for a Long Time If Properly Adjusted
Comment: What can one say about a belt; it either works or it doesn't.

I've noticed complaints about the belt breaking frequently on the Eureka 4870. I think that is due in large part to the manual operation of the height adjustment.

The height should be adjusted to the highest level that actually works on the carpet being vacuumed. If it is adjusted too low, the resistance from the carpet versus the powerful motor on the 4870 stresses the belt too much and it breaks.

I've used the same belt on my 4870 for well over two years and it seems to be as good as new. I have a fairly thick carpet and adjust the height to the next to the highest position for most of the carpeted areas of the house. We have some rugs and other carpeted areas where I need to drop the height down, but usually the third level down from the highest works well on those. Properly adjusted the 4870 cleans very well, fluffs up the carpet, and extends the belt life.

The bottom line on this is if you don't stress the belt by adjusting the height too low for the carpet; the belt can last for years.

Summary: More belts...
Comment: For some reason my Eureka upright has been going through belts on a regular basis. The vacuuming is nothing out of the ordinary but the previous belts that came with the vacuum just shred apart. Hopefully this new batch will more staying power. I can't rate the new belts since I just installed one so the 5 star rating is for the quick shipping.
