Years ago I thought I saw a demo (Electrolux?) where the sales guy put a sofa cushion in a plastic bag and sucked all the air out until it was flat. The thought being that all the dust would be pulled out of the cushion. Anybody know if this really works? | ||

I doubt it. You need some airflow to get the dust moving into the vacuum. All that did was smash the dust flat in the cushion. | ||

I think it is a demonstration of suction, not an effective means to clean anything. | ||

It's call the Cushion Crush. In theory, the plastic bag will contact the surface of the cushion, and all the air inside the cushion is finally forced out (along with the dust). I say "in theory" because I've never seen the water get dirty during a demonstration of the Cushion Crush. But it is an impressive demo, that can be done with any hose type vacuum cleaner.

Then this could lead over to the Kirby test of a Kirby lifting a Volkswagan filled with steel ball bearings-over other vacs picking up boweling balls! | ||
