Equipped with a powerful yet quiet 12 amp motor, this upright vacuum cleaner provides exceptional cleaning results and improved indoor air quality. The unit automatically adjusts to the proper setting for just about any carpet height, while its HEPA filtration system captures 99.97-percent of dust, allergens, and small particles, so only clean air gets expelled into the home. The vacuum's motor-protection system channels dust and dirt particles directly into the vacuum bag, promoting long life and more efficient cleaning for the fan and motor. Quickdraw tools rest in a side holster on the vacuum, ready for immediate use. The included stretch hose, two standard wands, dusting brush, and crevice tool ensure fast, powerful, above-floor cleaning. Connect the dusting brush or crevice tool to the vacuum's 12-1/2-foot attachment for easier access to hard-to-reach spots. Other highlights include an ergonomic handle, a foot-step handle release, a headlight, a 15-inch cleaning path, an integrated carrying handle, and a 24-foot power cord. A single touch activates the cord-rewind mechanism, making storage easy and convenient. The vacuum cleaner measures approximately 12-1/2 by 15 by 44-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Love Dependable Panasonic
I'm glad to be back with Panasonic. I had a Panasonic vacuum that lasted at least fifteen years. Less than two years ago, in the process of blowing insulation into the walls, from the inside of the house, my beloved vacuum died. Needing one quick, I went to Consumer Reports, and, based on their recommendations, purchased an Eureka Boss. BIG MISTAKE! Pain to use, tired of getting hit in the leg with the hose, when not in use. When you needed to use the hose, you had to stop what you were doing, move the dial -- hose -- then move the dial back to vacuum regular. Tools falling off. You get the picture. Hated to have to vacuum!
Even though I take good care of my things (especially now a days, when nothing seems to last), the Boss broke in two, less than two years later. So, I came back to Panasonic and am VERY HAPPY I DID.
The UG471 is GREAT!
I have two non-stop shedding Siberian Huskies. This vacuum works great picking up their hair on hard...

Initial impressions
I was shopping for a vacuum lately and see this on sale at Fry for $39 !!(refurbished? didn't say but I know Fry is kind of sneaky)
I thought it was used or floor model but store clark told me they have 4 in stock and I can pick 1 that I like. I realize that contrary to the latest vaccum cleaners which are uniformly bagless this one still uses a bag but the price is just too good and I actually prefer an "oldfashioned" vaccum that uses a bag because a lot of reviews I read about bagless vaccum were complaining about how messy things can get when emptying them.
The setup was very simple -- I don't even need the manual. Out of box only 2,3 pieces need to be hooked to the main body and you are ready to go. The hoses and tubes are still in sealed bags and there was no sign of usage. if this is a refurbished machine then they did a very good job.
Pros: Very strong suction (the most important), coil rewind, a nice headlight, HEPA filter, VERY EASY to roll/move...
Heavy and can't be operated on bare floors
We had previously owned a Panasonic vacuum cleaner and our experience with it was wonderful over the years. In between the time it finally "died" we purchased other makes but kept the brand in mind for future purchases. We needed a new replacement vac which had onboard tools like a crevice cleaner and we have bare floors. Though the vac is self adjusting, it won't adjust for bare floors meaning you can damage it during operation. What was Panasonic thinking when it designed this model? That everyone has wall to wall carpeting in their homes? There is no information about this on the Amazon page! It's one heavy "mother" to lug around the house especially when you have to move it upstairs to do floors there. The design of the handle is not good given its smallish shape and because of the weight of the unit and the fact that you have to put pressure on the muscles of your wrist, it will grow tired as well. I wonder what effect prolonged use will eventually have on your hand? I don't...
