Whats yours? my best would be, odly enough this cheep shark sweeper that I got in '06 or '07 for 20 bucks. It is the lowest end model without edge cleaning, easy empty bin, or backsaver handle but despite a very rickety handle and a cracked dust bin, it still works and I still use itto this day! My worst would have to be this stupid knock off of an electrolux stick vac that I got from walgreans a few years ago and the problems include, short batery life, useless hand vac, horrible filtration that blew the dusty exhaust right up twards you when in use as a stick vac, but when in use as a hand vac it blew the dust right onto your hand! YUCK! And most recently the entire filter system has failed and now what ever dust you suck up IS comming out, so its bassicly trash now, even more so than when it was new. So whats yours? It can be as old or new as you like.
Thanks!
Scott

my best would have to venture from a dirt devil cordless accucharge or a electrolux, and my worst would have to be a eureka and a shark cordless vacuum... (not a sweeper) and this is unrelated to the topic, but can you try to post a picture of the walgreens clone? thanks!

My best would be a Shark "Sweeper" rechargeable thing. It is the bottom of the line model, and I got it about 6 years ago probably. It still works great, and is great for bare floors and rugs. My worst is a Dirt Devil thing. It's red and "cyclonic" with a fold down handle. The battery sucks and the suction is very weak.

What about the original 1979 version of the Black & Decker Dustbuster, and its more-powerful Dustbuster Plus?

Worst is the westinghouse unplugged where they took a bad vacuum ( fantom wildcat ) and made it worse. I really don't know the best or worse, I just hated that thing lol
This isn't in any way a bad post about fantom just that model.

For floors, my vote goes to the cordless Swiffer Vac.....very, very easy to use, and the Swiffer pad picks up all the electrostatic dust that can't be removed by suction or even by a bristled floor nozzle. A really ingenious design for cleaning floors....
