Recently bought a Hoover Windtunnel Cyclonic, amazing the dirt and grit that this machine pickups. The Dyson did not pick up this this machine. |

David, You are 100% correct. I do not like many of the newer vacuums on the market, but that doesn't make them JUNK. It simply means that I don't like them. I have friends who swear by their Bissel, Dirt Devils, Regina's ect. While I don't like them, they seem to. We all have difference's in collecting, how we collect, what we collect, brands we collect, but what is important is that we consider all vacuums (good or bad) as a part of the history of our hobby. There have been many brands go under, like the Byson, Cadilac and I am sure there are many more, but each of them has added something worthwhile to the overall performance of many vacuums. Duane's Ida Lee that he brought to the St. Louis convention was one of the most interesting vacuums I have ever seen, I can not tell you if it was a great cleaner, but the over design concept had my complete attention.

Karl, I just received for my birthday a new Oreck XL21 complete with the canister. Overall, I think it is a great vacuum. My sister has one and if it can survive her, it can survive anything. They may not be a great deep cleaner, but they most certainly groom the carpet well. Consumer Reports did rate them better than the Dyson even in deep cleaning. For someone like myself, who has area rugs for the most part, the combination of the upright and canister work great. Of course, when I want to know that things are really clean, I get out my Royal, Air-Way or Miele. Repairing them is so much fun. A total of 8 screws and you can take them completely apart. I have put my share of them straight into the dishwasher...looks like new when the come out. I have never been brave enough to place the motor in the DW, but I do know some members here have. The new Hepa Bag they offer seems to be of great quality and the bad docking system seems to work well. David Oreck is very good at what he does, ADVERTISING, APPEARANCE, along with offering an American made product, a descent warranty, and using TV as much as possible. Just my thoughts. Morgan |
