How efficient are vacuum cleaners in preventing the dust and other dirt that they suck from escaping through the air outlet. I'm using a Khind branded wet and dry vaccum cleaner model VC 3661, priced about USD 60, manufactured in 2004. The type that is shaped like a bucket and has its air outlet facing upwards and a removable, washable cotton bag inside. I notice that it has only two layers (slices) of dark -colored Sponge like material when I remove the air outlet cover. Is that sufficient to prevent dust, dirt and most importantly bacteria from coming out form the cleaner itself. It could be releasing the bacteria and spreading it all over the place.
vaccum cleaners are for cleaning toenail clippings and dirt out of the carpet. If you are worried about airborne bacteria check out the Ionic Breeze.
Time to get into the 21st century----if you or a loved one has allergies, you may want to look into a Dyson.....they are the only vacuums out there that truly clean the air and do not pollute it with what you suck out of the carpets.......especially if you are renting. They run between 300/500 dollars- yes, pricey, but they last a lifetime.......there's no bag and the $500 picks up dander and dust mites.........I know, I bought one because my daughter is severely allergic.......so, if you can't afford a dyson yet, go for a bagless model- one where the dirt is sucked into a bucket- which you empty-- that has air filters you replace, and clean it every time you use it.....there are some for around 100 and do a decent job.....but cannot get rid of dust mites, dander or fleas........

Incidentally, when vacuum cleaner manufacturers talk about the life of a hepa filter, they are basing it on one hour of weekly usage. A vacuum cleaner usually works by having a power head attachment to a canister or integrated into an upright, which has some rotating brushes, which first of all loosen up the dirt on the carpet.
That whole mess is probably flying everywhere. It's probably hard to find a vacuum that won't do that because no matter what you have to change a bag or filter.
