Atrix VACBP10 HEPA Backpack Vacuum with Additional Filters, Premium Bundle, Black

I am extremely happy with this purchase, these units come well appointed and I was pleasantly surprised. They seem to work quite well and have good suction and Power. And with all of the attachments, I can pretty much tackle most jobs with it. The HEPA filter works perfectly And that is always a good thing! I would recommend this little unit to anyone interested in buying a good backpack Hepa-vac that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg! Lol.

We just received our first Atrix vacuum. We own several models of Proteam backpacks for our cleaning company. We decided to try something different and more economical because we are constantly having to repair our Proteam vacs, mainly switches (every year) and occasionally EXPENSIVE motors, among other small problems like our side filters constantly getting blown out of the filter doors. Our cleaners often complain about how cumbersome Proteam vacs feel when they are advertised to be easy to use and ergonomic. (I also use these vacs and know them like the back of my hand. And In my experience, it seems that the ergonomics break down pretty quickly with use.) These issues led me to seek out another alternative to meet our cleaning standards and cleaner needs.I set-up my Atrix vacuum today and gave it a test run. Immediately, I noticed that the backpack mount and ROBUST velcro waist band is a huge support. The vacuum felt light, and I was able to easily move around. I really appreciated the handle that attached to the hose and above the pole attachment. It made for a natural experience. The vacuum didn't rotate/shift on my back what-so-ever. (It was a contrast I wasn't use to.) Suction and power seems very good (tested on carpet and hard floor). I used the spinning brush attachment on durable hard floor in the kitchen. No noticeable debris kickback for random crumbs, a popcorn kernel or 2, and other small bits. The vacuum is on the quieter-ish side when compared to the power it seems to have. I sent the vacuum off with the cleaners to use today.Attachments for this model look okay and haven't been tested. I will probably purchase their Pro-grade hair brush tool. I am throughly happy that this vac came with a spinning floor tool and all-purpose floor tool without an additional cost.The construction seems solid. I am curious how it will handle the ware-and-tear of moving from job-to-job. (We own a residential and commercial mobile cleaning business. Every couple hours or so, we are on to the next job.)Anyone who operates backpack vacs knows the problematic extension cord issue. Vertical hanging clips don't always hold in place, and cleaners end up stressing the vacuum, power cord, and extension cord by tying the extension cord around the power cord. It's a huge no-no, but it happens out of necessity and annoyance when the extension constantly breaks free from the power source during use. Atrix has created a cool solution by permanently mounting a horizontal clip that provides (so far) the best support and tension I've seen. The extension prongs fit very, VERY snugly into the power cord.Lastly, I really appreciate the cloth-like debris collection bag. The interior of the vac seems very well sealed to prevent dust from escaping and infiltrating to the internal parts.In conclusion, so far, so great! However, I still have a lot of observing to do. Proteam's vacuum uses a very durable plastic body construction that can take some beating. I don't know if Atrix plastic body will hold up or not. It appears more ridged. Time will tell. Power/suction seemed good during the test run, but how will it hold up over time? How/when will it deteriorate as the bag and/or filters fill? How long will the rotating spin brush hold up? (I had issues with Proteam's attachment dying on me fairly quickly.) What will the suction be like when using the attachments? I will update my review once we've spent a little more time. That said, first impressions: I'm impressed!

I’ve had this backpack vacuum for about a year now and it’s been a solid investment. It’s lightweight and super easy to carry around, which makes cleaning large areas or stairs way less of a hassle. The suction is still powerful after a year of use, and everything feels durable—no frayed wires, nothing broken (except one thing, which I’ll get to).I really like the retractable hose—it gives good reach and stores neatly. The only issue I had was with the rolling head attachment, which broke within the first couple of months. That was a bit of a letdown, but the vacuum itself still works great without it.Overall, if you’re looking for a reliable, lightweight backpack vacuum with strong suction, this one’s a great choice. Just be aware the attachments might not be as tough as the vacuum itself.

I just started my own cleaning company and wanted something that was light weight to carry with me to jobs that also wouldn’t kill my back and this vacuum is perfect. The only flaw I can find is where to put the attachments. I know the belt has small loops in it to stick the attachments in but I worry I’ll lose them. The suction is great on this thing and I do love the number of attachments it came with. I’ve used in both residential and commercial settings with low pile carpet, plush carpet and hard floors and it works great in all settings.

Great value, good for commerical or personal use. Not to loud, suction is great. You need to buy a extension cord.

Pros- It’s super convenient having the backpack and it does a good enough job on solid floors. Cons- literally everything else. The attachment arm constantly falls off when using it. It is the most frustrating thing ever and makes me want to smash it! I have to hold the stick part of it because it is absolutely pointless to hold the handle, it will fall off every 10 seconds… literally every f****** 10’seconds. The brush attachment moves around in circles so much you have to go over the area (desk, dresser, chair etc) multiple times to get the spots it missed because it just flips around in circles. The carpet attachment doesn't do anything really. I tried for about 2 minutes, different angles and pressure to suck it up just a little piece of leaf and it did nothing. I’m not even sure how this is justified as a carpet attachment, it’s Pretty much useless. The attachments in the holster fall out every time i bend over, of even just move, so I don’t even bother putting them in anymore. The floor attachment…. Careful, this will 100% scratch your floors depending on what flooring you have. Overall this was a huge disappointment, I hate this thing and I wish I would’ve returned after the first use but I thought I’d just get used to it. If you’ve read this far and still considering buying one I’ll sell you mine for $100, you pay shipping. If this is what professionals are using to clean rugs and carpets I’d be pretty upset as a client.
