I had subscribed to Consumer Reports WWW page when I was looking at 
cars.  Since I got a 1 year subscription, it's still available, and it 
only makes sense to use it for vacuums.

So I did so, I went out and read up on current vacuums, and thought 
their "Best Buy" for upright vacuums, the Eureka Boss Smart Vac 4870, 
seemed like a decent choice for me at $140.  Everything on the planet 
is on sale right now, so I went through ads yesterday looking for one.

Hahaha!  Not a chance.  They're not sold.  I could get one on eBay...

So then I looked through their ratings for the under $200 vacuums that 
are being advertised.

Hahaha!  *None* of them are reviewed.  Nothing very close to what's 
being advertised is reviewed.

Consumer Reports really isn't very helpful this time around.
