The word "Eureka" is Greek for "I have found it." Many people shout it to celebrate a discovery. Fred Wardell, the founder of Eureka Company thought that the word Eureka would encapsulate the way his company would create new and exciting products and change the world. Eureka is one of the most recognized names in the vacuum cleaner industry and is sold in over forty countries around the world.

Fred Wardell founded Eureka in 1909. In 1915, the Detroit, Michigan company won the Grand Prize at the San Francisco International Exposition. One third of all of the vacuum cleaners being sold in the United States was a Eureka vacuum cleaner by 1927. In 1945, Bloomington, Illinois became the headquarters of Eureka. It has been there ever since. The company was purchased by Electrolux Home Care Products North America in 2004. As one of Electrolux's four brands, Eureka still manages to dominate the market with its line of uprights, canisters, handheld vacuums, home built-in systems, stick vacuums, battery-powered vacuums, wet vacs, steam cleaners and home cleaning systems.

All of Eureka's models have a HEPA filter. A HEPA or high efficiency particulate air filter captures almost 100% of dust and allergens from the environment down to 0.3 microns. HEPA filters are ideal for allergy and asthma sufferers. When you use one, the air quality of your home changes from full of allergens to cleaner, purer and sweeter. Eureka offers a wide range of cleaners that you can use to solve every cleaning dilemma.
