We have Oreck upright and canister.  Both are very nice and relatively
trouble free.  I might try a Dyson so long as it fits under the counter.

 Thats a weak argument, the cord is less of a thing than lugging a weighty 
vacuum cleaner around. If you put lots of ports you can have quite a short 
hose. We have one port but our house is small.I also don't need to think about 
finding an outlet, I don't have to manage the cord, the bin gets emptied once a 
year if I think of it or 2 years if I don't. Any dust from the bin is easily 
contained, its got a great big filter since I don't need to lug it around. I 
don't trip over it, its not taking up a closet and its got wy more 
suction...
If you've never used one you need to try before you condemn it.

Re: [MBZ] OT: rechargeable stick vacuum cleaner

2018-12-03 Thread Curt Raymond via Mercedes 
 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...

makes the time factor - it vacuums more than you ever will.

Re: [MBZ] OT: rechargeable stick vacuum cleaner

2018-12-02 Thread Meade Dillon via Mercedes 
While I have no experience with the Dyson "stick" things, I do like our
Dyson Ball vacuum.  Lightweight and quiet.  Look for a sale - the normal
prices are really too high for what you get.  Take a look at Dyson's
cordless, might be spendy but I'll bet it works pretty good.  We've got a
Swiffer vacuum for our hard floors (tile / wood) and I really like it but
the battery only lasts for about 1.5 rooms.  It's also very noisy.

I think the bag-less part is rather gimmicky, the clear container that
fills up with dirt makes you think you are really cleaning, really getting
something done, boy-oh-boy look at all that dirt and hair and stuff!  But
then you've got to empty that container and wash out the parts, and if
you're OCD like me you end up wasting an extra twenty minutes cleaning the
darn container and special vortex-generating parts.

Re: [MBZ] OT: rechargeable stick vacuum cleaner

2018-12-02 Thread Kevin Kraly via Mercedes 
The thing I really like about our central vacuum is that it exhausts outside 
the house! It is a bit of a chore dealing with a hose, but I am OK with that. I 
had an issue where my powerhead clogged up with dog hair that got sucked up 
behind a napkin which got stuck in the pivot point on the powerhead just below 
where the wand connects, and I had to blow it all out from the top with the 
shop vac which was a bit ugly but did the trick!

Beg to differ. 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

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.
