Introducing the lightest, full-powered upright vacuum cleaner in America. With its extremely strong, durable magnesium frame, the Magnesium® SP packs all the power you expect from an Oreck vacuum cleaner — so much power it feels like it's self-propelled on most surfaces. The two speed Quickswitch® on the back of the vacuum enables you to move smoothly across all floor types using appropriate power levels: high for carpets and low for hardwoods, and tile. It's even gentle enough for fine Oriental and Persian rugs on low speed. Additionally, the large high-performance rear wheels with cylindrical wheel bearings give the Magnesium maneuverability, making it easy to push through high-pile carpet. Best of all, it lies virtually flat for easy cleaning under furniture.
Includes the Ultimate Handheld Vac, a powerful, portable and lightweight handheld vacuum perfect for above-the-floor cleaning, includes a 20 ft. power cord, five specialized cleaning tools, and an installed HEPA filter.

The lightest, full-powered upright in America
Engineered for the way you live
Direct Suction
The direct suction and rollerbrush rotating at 7,000 revolutions per minute draw dirt right into the bag. The brush grooms the nap as it cleans.
Fast and Simple
The Saniseal® system automatically seals shut, locking the dirt in the disposable filter bag. Changing bags is effortless.
Furniture-Friendly Design
Magnesium SP lies virtually flat, has a wide cleaning path and a 30 ft. cord, making it easy to cover a lot of ground, quickly get in and out of tight spots and get up and down stairs.
HEPA Inner Bag
Magnesium SP uses a HEPA inner bag. As air passes through the HEPA inner bag, it captures at least 99.97% of particles as small as .3 microns from that air, such as pollen, dust, smoke, animal dander and mold spores.
"Easy Snap Cord"
The new 'Easy Snap' cord clip is the smart way to keep the cord where you need it ... not where you don't.
The Oreck Magnesium SP has received the Gold Seal of Approval from the Carpet and Rug Institute, the leading U.S. carpet authority, which certifies that it meets the highest performance standards.

In "A troublesome cat and a great vacuum," Kate outlines her 4 favorite things about Magnesium: it's so lightweight her kids can use it AND she can easily carry it upstairs; it's quicker than a broom on wood floors; and it lies flat to get under furniture or beds. Get the details from Centsational Girl. |

With Magnesium's low speed option, Anna can quit worrying about one of her pet peeves: accidentally catching a rug edge and sucking it up. "It even vacuums my shag rug with ease!" And although she's wanted a handheld vacuum for awhile, she's glad she held out for the Oreck Ultimate Handheld. See why this power team meets all her needs at askannamoseley.com. |

Sally considers the Magnesium "hands-down, one of the best homeowner tools I've ever used" and "an investment that you'll keep for years and years to come." She calls the handheld "a DIY-er's dream machine… with an attachment for every job." See why she and her family use both virtually every day at Exploits of a Military Mama. |

The Oreck Advantage: Direct Suction
Our direct suction design delivers dirt in a straight, efficient path right to the vacuum bag. It's a streamlined design that works beautifully with a smaller motor — and one reason why Oreck bagged uprights are so lightweight. Here's how: our upright vacuums incorporate a "dirty air system" in which dirt is pulled through a fan that breaks it into smaller particles that get sucked up into the vacuum. Oreck's smaller motor drives this fan, as well as the brushroll. Because these smaller motors sit closer to the floor they provide efficient suction and are able to spin the brushroll incredibly fast.

Saw product in store
Saw product in store when I went to get my tune up on mine. Like the fact that it's lighter, but what I really like is the wheels. Makes it easier to move from one location to another. Wish all your products had that. Also, need to change "push button" to a switch. That doesn't seem to want to "connect" as well and I bet over time will wear out. Will wait til new product comes out in fall before I decide to purchase. As we get older wheels sure are a lot easier. Never figured out why the other models didn't have them.

Magnesium
Got it home and when we tried to vacuum, it kept shutting off and the front light then kept blinking. Note: This is only supposed to happen when you pick up a sock or thread or something. However, we just had our carpet cleaned and nothing was picked up.
We examined the roller to make sure and nothing was wound around the roller.
Obviously, a defective product, which means quality control at the factory was poor. We are taking it back to the dealer for a refund and to get our old XL back that was working fine and was in for a tune-up only.

Great vac!
The Magnesium floats seamlessly from my carpet to my area rug. {There is a low power setting for even more delicate rugs, as well as hard surfaces.}
I love to clean, but big, bulky vacuums are really rough on me. The Magnesium is very easy to maneuver, and doesn’t hurt my back.
It is so light, none of my kids have to miss out on the fun {yes, the fun} of running the vacuum!

This is best looking vacuum
This product isvery light
The bags easy to change
and it looks great!

MindBlown
This is the most amazing vacuum i've seen on the market to date. My daughter just started crawling and I've been looking for something to easily clean a variety of floors and do it efficiently and quickly. It picks up all the dog hairs that get trapped in those pesky corners and picks up all the dirt that my husband tracks in from work. Lightweight, easy to store and clean and its pretty! What more could you ask for?

Seems Flimsy
A little too light to do a heavy duty job on my carpets
July 10, 2012
Easy & efficient, needs attachments
I love the lightweight ease and powerful suction of this upright. My complaint is that it has no attachments. The shoulder-held canister I received for ordering this has the attachments but is 3 pounds heavier, filled with design flaws that make it awkward and cumbersome to use. Its bag also fills quickly. Upright - great but incomplete.

Love the light weight
I live in a 3-story house and was lugging an 18-lb vacuum up and down the stairs. This vacuum has been a godsend. It does the job well and is extremely easy to use. My other vacuum cleaned a little better, but I hardly ever vacuumed because it was so heavy and difficult to push. Plus it beat up the carpets pretty badly and this one is gentler.
I think combining the power selector and on/off into one button is unfortunate. Why make us press a button twice to turn it off for the sake of minimalist design? It lost a star rating for that.
July 8, 2012
Very poor design
I took my Oreck XL in for service and fell for the sales pitch on the Magnesium. Since I had had problems with the belt on the XL, I made the switch. The Magnesium is a real disappointment -- the power switch is very difficult to use; the power cord coming from the bottom of the machine gets in the way (either dragging in the step of the user or the vacuum); there is no storage pocket for papers related to the vacuum of supplies such as scented tablets; it is difficult to cover the tracks of the vacuum. Wish I had my XL back!

Light in Weight, yet Amazing Power
I'll try to address something others have not. Which portion of our carpet wears out first? If you're like me, it's the stairs. The Magnesium is so light that I can hold it to move over each step by grasping the handle in my left and the neck of the handle in my right. (Note: people without a good sense of balance should be very cautious in attempting this.) The difference this made on the stairs was incredible - and I'd tried (with much more effort) the same approach with other uprights. The slight downsides are: (1) in high speed, this is *noisy*, and (2) on my carpet, at least, the high setting left "grooves" in the plush carpet - these are no doubt the result of suction that no other unit provided, but it was a surprise. In our case, getting the stairway carpet clean was worth the price.

Revolutionary Clean
At several times per week, we vacuum way more than the average family, so I’d say we’re a bit of “experts” in that category. Plus we have owned enough vacuums to open a store.
Revolutionary. That’s what my husband calls it. And it truly is. Why?
It is durable, lightweight and virtually indestructible (not that I would know, ahem). You can actually hear the particles entering the vacuum, so all you’re left with is a superior clean!
It feels so easy to operate and maneuver, even with a one-finger touch.
Its flatter than average head, thin profile and twin LED lights allow it to go where no other vacuum has gone before – under low-to-the-ground furniture.
It automatically shuts down if it accidentally picks up a sock or shoelaces (again, not that I would know, ahem).
And check out the easy fit handle – it’s higher than Oreck’s other vacuums, making it especially great for taller individuals.
Some things that would make it absolutely perfect:
1. Though the Magnesium has a boastful 30-foot cord, our previous Oreck vacuum (the Edge) has a 35-foot cord, which we especially love. That vacuum also had an onboard wand for light cleaning, so that I didn’t have to get out our handheld canister vacuum for a quick clean-up job. However, I understand that to make it low profile and lightweight, there has to be some give somewhere.
2. Our first Oreck (the XL) had a nifty little pocket to hold the warranty and tune-up information. This one does not.
3. I wish it had a way to start on the low power setting. In order to go to that low setting, you need to push the “on” button twice, as it starts on the higher setting.

Wonderful Light Magnesium vacuum!
I read reviews on the magnesium before I bought, people stated it looked and felt like a toy. I agree but in a positive way. It does feel like a toy but the suction is fabulous. I turned it on just yesterday and it almost started running away from me before I even pushed it! Have a dog and cat and feel like the rug is clean after vacuuming. The weight does feel like a toy, but that is also fabulous. I cannot believe how better I feel after using this vacuum as oppused to my old upright that was very hard to push and manuevuer. I do miss the on board tools but it that's what makes it light, I'll use the littler hand held for other things and just vacuum with this machine. I don't believe you'll be sorry with this vacuum cleaner. Its my first Oreck and hopefully my last!
June 4, 2012
wonderful
absolutely love this machine, the low power works great on the hard floors and it is so easy to use it nearly does the work itself
June 4, 2012
AMAZING
This vacuum is by far the best we've ever had. The light weight of the unit makes it easy for anyone to use. It's light, easy to use and the fact that it adjusts to carpet height on it's own makes it a dream to own. We just got ours today and our carpets haven't looked this good in years. I recommend this vacuum to anyone that is in need of a new vacuum. Thank you ORECK for producing such a great machine.

Magnesium Rocks
We picked up this machine today for quick, everyday cleanup. It is very user friendly for children which was the focus of the purchase. To my surprise this little thing packs a lot of power. After trying it out in our living room - I can honestly say it equals the ability of our Oreck Edge. It picked up dry cleaning powder from the weekend project, even after being vacuumed a couple times prior by the bigger Edge upright. I under estimated the power and functionality of what we thought was a light duty vacuum. Way to go Oreck! We are pleased with the products and equipment purchased this month.

By far the best Vacuum EVER!!!
This is by far the best vacuum Oreck has ever made. I have had 4 Oreck vacuums over the bast 10 years. I have never loved a vacuum before, but I love my Magnesium. It goes from carpet to wood floors with no problems. Unlike other Orecks it DOES NOT shoot dirt behind it. It actually vacuums just like its supposed to. The only complaint I have, is the location of the power button. It is on the back of the bag. Would have liked it on the handle. But by no means does that change my opinion. Still a 5 star machine. If there was an option for more stars i would have rated it much higher.
May 16, 2012
Very lightweight but difficult to manuever
I usually like to wait until I've tried a product often enough before reviewing and It's time.
The magnesium wasn't my first choice but because of the weight difference I gave in to the sales hype. It is extremely light and the cleaning seems excellent even without the edge brushes. On regular speed it is almost self propelled.
The absolute worst feature is the on/off switch especially with arthritic hands, the power of the machine pulls it away when trying to lower the suction or turn it off.
My previous Oreck XL was powerful and outlasted other family member machines 3 to 1 so it is well worth the money. If the Magnesium does as well the price is good.
Storing is not a problem as it is slender and easy to lift in and out. Just wish they had put more thought into the switch location.

If it's not broken...
I LOVE the fact that this is lightweight but for the money would have hoped for at LEAST a spare bag...
The performance is decent but my older Orecks BLEW this away IMO...HALO was the BOMB but discontinued..
The warranty is good to have BUT anytime I tried to take one of my old vacs to Oreck in Chicago, they couldn't fix a vac that was ordered "online" HUH? and gave suggestions as to the "new" one you could buy for a trade...
I have owned Orecks for almost 20 years ... sadly this will be my last!

This vaccum is the best cleaning and easiest to use vaccum that I have ever owned.
My carpet has never been so clean. You can actually feel an increase in density of the carpet after cleaning it cleans so well. Is is so lightweight that it feels like I am pushing a feather around the room. Another excellent feature is that it automatically adjusts from carpet to bare floors so no manual adjustment need be made. I love this vacuum. It is the best vacuum I have ever owned. I would never buy another brand vacuum.
May 10, 2012
Light and powerful
So far so good. The Magnesium seems to be all they say it is. It is the best vacuum I've ever had the pleasure to use.

Lightweight in more ways than one, perhaps?
I have only used this vacuum once and purchased it because of the great reviews. It just arrived today. It IS very lightweight, which is super because I have several levels. The first vacuuming was adequate, didn't knock my socks off, you know. I was so shocked at the cheap appearance that I had to write right away. I had to remind myself that this is actually an Oreck. I bought an XL ( about 8 years old) that I love, but it needed repair and local shop failed to fix it properly. Anyway, the on/off button got caught the second time I pressed it and I wasn't sure I was going to be able to turn it off without unplugging. The button is very cheap plastic. This looks like a toy. Because--- and only because, it is an Oreck---I will try it a few more days before I throw in the towel. I worry about durability because it looks so cheap and the fact that the button stuck the very first day is a concern. Repair of Orecks isn't that easy where I live. I have not yet been able to get the handle to stay on. Maybe I have a lemon? I am nervous, but I had such great luck with my last Oreck, I don't want to believe this one, especially because it is not the least expensive one they make, is a piece of junk. I just had to give you my first impression, which was not all that great. I was expecting more for what I paid and the brand, which I have trusted. This particular vacuum is not made in America. :(

Greatest
This is really great. I have a bad back and almost 70. Very easy to use and cleans very good. Wish had ordered sooner!!!

Very disappointed....
I have owned an Oreck for the past 13 yrs. I just recently purchased this product. I am not happy with the performance of this machine. The up right seems cheaply made and I can see dust and carpet fibers all over the casing and up the handle after the first use. The hand held machine's strap broke on me the first use. It is made of plastic. The extended handle is too short and I am 5'2 and I have to bend to vacuum?(WHAT?.?) The hose has no curve to it my wrist stung while vacuuming. I took the older models handle and hose and floor attachment and have put it on the new machine. It worked better after exchanging parts. I really don't like the upright either. I have to turn it on and off a lot (double click) just to move a piece of furniture I have to turn it off. You can't just set the handle up and move it ,you have to turn it off??? I don't like the 2 speed button it is annoying.Plus you have to put your foot on the front to get the handle to release. I loved the older kind where you just pulled it back and it came down. Less steps to do, to vacuum. Over all I just want to return it and purchase the Oreck that looks and acts like my older ones.

Powerful Suction! Super Lightweight !
This Machine replaced an old Electrolux- Its simple and powerful grooms carpet and rugs nice- gets pet hair up first pass. Very cool design and quality built. Bags beat bag-less for less mess!
April 20, 2012
Easy to use, right out of the box.
Can't say it enough, it's lightweight and easy to use. I vacuum more now than I every have, and I don't hate it.
April 16, 2012
I'm thrilled with my Magnesium vacuum cleaner. Works like a charm.
I'm 76 years old, raised five children, have 9 grandchildren, and I say say without reservation that my Oreck Magnesium vacuum is the very best I've ever had. Also, your customer representatives are outstanding for their courtesy, knowledge of Oreck products and overall professionalism.
April 11, 2012
Can't believe it got even better!
Just traded in my Oreck XL. It could have been repaired but decided to upgrade instead. Love that it is even 2lbs lighter, can you believe it? Same great power and ease of use, it's everything I loved but even better. Only thing I don't like is the light - not very useful.
March 28, 2012
So easy to use I vaccum more often!
I've never had a vaccum this nice before, and I'm sad it took me this long to know what a good vaccum feels like. The magnesium is so effortless to use, I hardly pick up a broom anymore. The vaccum is so light I can carry it all over the house and just start cleaning. It's pretty much self propelled so I don't feel like I've had a workout when I'm done. It moves so easily and I can get under all of my chairs and tables without having to move everything around. This vaccum is great for people with little strength to push around a cheap clunker. I love it so much I've purchased one for my 63 year old mother because it's just so easy and light.
March 27, 2012
Wonderful value for money.
Sooooo lightweight.
Like two power levels, low-slung profile ad two-in-one brushes (carpet & hard-floor).
March 19, 2012
I love my new Magnesium!
I am shocked by how light this vacuum is...it almost moves by itself. Its super easy to use and the zip pouch for the bag makes for an easy and clean process for changing the bag. I highly recommend it!
