I noticed this while looking at Simplicity's lineup. Apparently, their bagless upright has the same handle as the Bissell AeroSwift. This leads me to believe that some of the Simplicity line is made by Bissell, or their manufacturing company. Tom Gasko, is there any truth to this? The first pic is the Simplicity's handle, and the second pic is the Bissell's handle.

some time late last year/early this year taconys contract to use the fuller brush name expired and was never renewed so simplicity is going to be the brand of cheap bagged and bagless vacuums that where fuller brush and the premium machines are going to be exclusively riccar. Unfortunately imo the premium look that riccar had over simplicity is being discontinued for the simplicity styled machines and most if not all of the tandem air machines have lost there color in favor of a black and gold scheme that does not look good at all. It also looks like the models of each series have been paired down. I heard that tacony was having some changes in management so it could be that has something to do with the branding changes.

I'm one of the casualties of Tacony's new management. I can tell you ALL the horror stories of what's going on at the factory, and all the people they fired. Suffice it to say it's NOT the same company it was two years ago. I dislike them so much, I won't carry any of their products in my new store. Come talk to me, I'll tell you the whole story.

Tom, unless you are under a nondisclosure agreement, you should just tell the story here, I'm sure we would find it interesting. I'm guessing the new management wanted to cut costs and they did so any way they could, getting rid of employees and sacrificing the quality of their products. It will hurt them in the end, if it isn't already. Mike |
