Query: Maxima 12A Up Vac

My husband bought this vacuum for me for Christmas because it is light weight an easy to use. At first I thought it was a wonderful machine because it would throw dust & hair/pet fur around and I thought this just showed how bad my past machine was. Also it was amazing to see just how much dirt was being picked up after just having used my old machine. That was the 1st time.The 2nd time I realized that it was the bad design of this machine and perhaps all other Eurekas that cause the hair/pet fur/dust to go flying around. THE FAN IS ON THE FRONT OF THIS MACHINE NEAR THE FLOOR BLOWING DOWN ON THE VERY SPOT THAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO VACUUM! Although this machine does a good job picking up dirt, it takes me THREE TIMES the normal time to vacuum than it did with my old heavy machine...not good. I've never owned a Eureka vacuum before and will not own another because of this major flaw.
