The other day while making my rounds to my local Kirby dealer I found this Oreck XL insight. I know most people either love or hate Orecks but I must say I'm pretty impressed with this machine. For $20 I really couldn't go wrong. I currently own five Orecks in my collection and have never paid full price for one, nor would I ever because I do believe they are overpriced. That being said I would like to know anyone's opinion on Orecks newer design. This machine is very similar to my XL 21 which I do believe was a much better design on Orecks part. The brush roll really does groom the carpet nicely and the low speed feature is really convenient, considering my house is mostly hard floors and area rugs. I know this is not really a "deep clean" machine but so far I have been using this thing almost every day since I've got it. Anyone else have one of these or one like it? If so please share your thoughts.

No need to apologize, the "deep cleaner" noise is for those without imagination. You said it perfectly, we are collectors who usually buy used vacuums for a fraction of what they sold for new, and judging our acquisitions on what price they originally were marketed is just an abstract conversation topic. I love Orecks, a vacuum designed to do one job very well. That is, clean LOW PILE carpet as easily as possible while still doing a good job of it. Hotel maids, the elderly, and myself all agree, the often copied Oreck design works just as intended. The brand offered a few oddity models worth looking into, the twin motor upright and PT commercial canister line are two I still am hopping to find. | ||
