How long will it last? We've been in our house 12 years so the central vac is at least that old, if I were to guess its probably twice that old but I don't know for sure.Had a Kirby door to door salesman stop by a few years ago, didn't know they still existed before that, he did the "lets test our super vacuum against yours." My central vac at least kept up with his machine which I would expect, mine is bigger. The little robot is for sure convenient but, especially on carpet, its leaving a lot of "stuff" down there. Oh and it can't vacuum your bed. Seriously, vacuum your bed, its great... -Curt

For $200 you can have a Eufy that will not only pick up all the stuff but it will do it at a scheduled time every day while you are elsewhere. What the robot lacks in power it will more than make up for in persistence. The area under it's time vs suction curve is huge because it makes the time factor - it vacuums more than you ever will.

The Hoover Constellation was used instead. I suspect it was either a crappy system or was poorly designed. Put it in the house we built in Wisconsin and it was wonderful. Especially nice for a two story house. The system would suck paint off the walls if you let it. I highly recommend. -D > On Dec 2, 2018, at 7:37 PM, Curt Raymond via Mercedes < mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > Agree 100% once you've had central vac you'll never consider anything else.Curt > > Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android > > On Sun, Dec 2, 2018 at 4:11 PM, G Mann via Mercedes<mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: Yes: > > Whole house central vacuum.
