Such a chore to push around that I make my friends help. They all get a turn with the boat anchors. But they all clean well...

Too much plastic! Here’s some real weight, and to some extent I believe they are heavier than a Kirby G series!

The powercast was probably the heaviest domestic vacuum i've come across.
I also recall the advance carpetwin as being super heavy. |

For vacuums that are heavy for me to push on carpets, that's a tough one. There's not one that would come up in mind. Although I would not like using any vacuum that are hard to push on carpets. But for vacuums that are definitely heavy to lift, there's a couple that comes out of mind that I do like. They're both wide area vacuums. One is a Nilfisk Advance Carpetriever 28XP and the other one is a NSS Pacer 30. If I had to pick one that would be my favorite overall, it would be the Pacer. Love the switches on the handle, very simple to service or repair, dual suction motors that's like using a central vacuum all in one, and it's built like a tank.

I have that. Mine is 1984 one of last produced. I'm thinking 27 lbs was it's weight. It's so close to a tradition but the cord is commercial and bag is too quality. It's easy to push I vacuumed a week and a half ago with it. I'm currently needing to put brushroll in it I just serviced. Bearings were tight but bristles are basically new. It does have led light and amodel fan. It's a beast.

Les,
According to this 1970 brochure, the Super Sweep actually weighed 16 pounds. ~Ben |
