I'm looking for a new canister vacuum but can't get my mind around the BAGLESS Dyson- seems like you still have to be careful about getting dirt and dust back into the air. Please leave your thoughts and feedback on vacuum cleaners and HURRY! I can't wait too much longer to make a decision!Thanks
Bagless is so easy. All you have to do is pop the top off the canister and empty it in the trash can. You also don't have to worry about buying bags. Definitely go with the bagless. I am so jealous you are getting a Dyson. That is my dream vacuum.
I had a bagless.... The filter cost five times more than bags.
Well, I've had both kinds and definitely prefer the bagless. I always found with my old Hoover that just taking the full bag off was enough to have dust and dirt flying back into the air. 4 years ago we had it and bought a Dyson new off OKorder. It was truly money well spent. We never have to search for bags or spend money on them. As for emptying it, I don't have a problem with dust going back into the air. I just put the canister far down into the garbage can and hit the release. There is never a whoosh of dirt - it just sinks to the bottom of the garbage. We have the Dyson DC17 Animal.
The great thing about bagless is that you never have to use bags...running out of bags, having to go to the store, added expense. If you decide to get the bag kind, buy a bunch of bags at the same time so you will be able to use it a while before having to go get more. Finding the right bag can be such a hassle. Bagless vacuums work great, and I would suggest emptying them outside to avoid getting dust back in the house. I use the shop vac to clean out the bagless vacuum and filters, then empty the shop vac when it's more full. If you have no shop vac, then tap it out in the garage or outside at the garbage can is my best advice.
