Kenmore DU2015 Bagless Upright Vacuum – HEPA Pet Hair

Kenmore DU2015 Bagless Upright Vacuum: Reliable Multi-Floor Cleaning for the Modern Home

Kenmore has been a trusted name in home appliances for generations, and the Kenmore DU2015 Bagless Upright Vacuum upholds that reputation with a well-engineered, practical design suited to households with carpets, hardwood floors, and the inevitable presence of pet hair. With a dual-motor system, HEPA filtration, and a versatile attachment kit including a 10-foot hose, the DU2015 offers the kind of comprehensive cleaning capability that makes it a reliable everyday upright vacuum for a wide range of home environments.

Dual-Motor System for Consistent Suction Power

At the core of the DU2015 is a 2-motor system that separates the suction motor from the brush roll motor, allowing each to operate at optimal efficiency for its specific task. This design means the vacuum maintains consistent suction power regardless of the brush roll load—so even when the brush roll is working through thick carpet pile or tangled pet hair, the suction motor doesn't compensate by working harder. The result is reliable, sustained cleaning performance across all floor types. The built-in suction control feature allows you to adjust airflow for different carpet weights and fabric types, preventing damage to delicate rugs while ensuring deep cleaning on heavier pile.

HEPA Filter System for Cleaner Air

The enhanced HEPA filtration system in the DU2015 captures 99.7% of dust, allergens, and microscopic particles that pass through the vacuum. For households with allergy sufferers, asthma patients, or anyone sensitive to airborne particles, this is a meaningful feature—the vacuum doesn't just collect debris from the floor, it also prevents fine particles from being recirculated back into the room's air. The HEPA filter works in conjunction with the dustbin seal to ensure that what goes in stays in, contributing to a genuinely cleaner indoor environment after every cleaning session.

Lightweight and Maneuverable with Swivel Steering

Weighing under 14 lbs, the Kenmore DU2015 is on the lighter end of the upright vacuum spectrum, making it easier to carry between floors, maneuver around furniture, and operate for extended periods without fatigue. The swivel steering mechanism allows the vacuum head to pivot smoothly around chair legs, furniture bases, and tight corners, reducing the stop-and-readjust interruptions that slow down cleaning with more rigid uprights. The combination of low weight and swivel steering makes the DU2015 significantly easier to use for daily cleaning than heavier, less agile competitors in its class.

Wide Sweeper Path for Faster Coverage

The DU2015 features a wide cleaning path that reduces the number of passes needed to cover a room, making it more time-efficient for larger floor areas. Combined with its multi-surface design, this wide path works across both carpet and hard floors without requiring manual adjustments or floor-type settings—the vacuum senses and adapts automatically, which simplifies the cleaning process considerably.

10-Foot Flexible Hose and 4 Cleaning Attachments

One of the most versatile aspects of the DU2015 is its 10-foot flexible hose, which enables floor-to-ceiling cleaning without moving the vacuum. You can clean ceiling fans, high shelves, vents, and under furniture with ease. The four included attachments expand the vacuum's capabilities significantly:

• 3-in-1 Combination Tool — functions as a crevice tool, dirt brush, and upholstery brush in one
• Upholstery Tool — designed for sofas, cushions, and fabric surfaces
• Pet HandiMate — a specialized tool for lifting pet hair from upholstery and fabric
• Rotating Brush Tool — ideal for cleaning floor transitions and awkward surface changes

This range of attachments makes the DU2015 far more capable than a standard upright, effectively serving as a complete cleaning system for the entire home—not just the floor.

Bagless Design for Low Ongoing Costs

The bagless design of the DU2015 eliminates the ongoing expense and inconvenience of replacement bags. The 2-liter dustbin provides ample capacity for most cleaning sessions, and emptying is straightforward. For households that vacuum frequently, the absence of replacement bag costs adds up to meaningful savings over the life of the machine.

Ideal For Pet Owners and Multi-Surface Homes

With its dedicated Pet HandiMate attachment, the DU2015 is well-prepared for the specific challenges of pet ownership. Upholstery, stairs, car seats, and pet bedding can all be addressed with the included tools, and the strong suction handles embedded pet hair on carpet without the repeated passes that weaker vacuums require. The multi-surface floor head transitions smoothly between carpet and hard flooring, making this an excellent choice for open-plan homes where different floor materials meet.

A Trusted Upright with Proven Track Record

With nearly 4,000 ratings and a solid 4.2-star average, the Kenmore DU2015 has earned its standing as one of the more trusted bagless upright vacuums in its price range. The breadth of its user base—covering pet owners, allergy sufferers, and general household users alike—speaks to the versatility and dependability that Kenmore has built into this model. For buyers who want a reliable, well-equipped upright vacuum from a heritage brand, the DU2015 is a well-proven choice.
