I AM GETTING FED-UP! (how often do we hear ourselves yelling this mantra when that Life-long warrantee on the oven means quot;the life of the Productquot;?)I am feverishly shopping to replace the DYSON(r) vacuum cleaner that I bought and used only a few times. - Is this common for Dyson (stand-up) vacuum cleaners to clog-up the air chamber commonly with the dust, debris and whever-else I clean from my carpet?Does the Dyson vacuum technology surpass its predecesor (bags)? - If so, how / which debris SHOULD I clean with this unit so it will work without my having to totally-disassemble the entire unit to wash it out so it will work?
I like the SHARK brand of sweepers today........they make all types and give you choices.......and made light weight which is a good thing. good luck. I like bag less also.......saves on some other purchases.
Why. Would you get a $500 vacuum when I can get a $40 bagged Bissell that does ten times better
I have been happy with Kenmore (Sears) canister vacuums, having bought two of them over the last 33 years. Fairly easy to get replacement parts for them.
i sympathise with you... i have also had more and more issues with appliance lifespans... i have not had a dyson vacuum cleaner, but have used another bagless model at my mom's... the dust-filled air is pulled through the filter, and the filter gets clogged almost immediately... i took the filter outside and used a brush to clean the pleats, but the filter was permeated with dust... instead of catching the dust in a cheap bag which can be thrown out, one has to replace an expensive filter... i shall always choose a bagged vacuum that also includes a hepa filter... consumer reports 2017 buying guide listed reliability of upright vacuum brands in this order: kirby, shark, dirt devil, kenmore, bissell, hoover, eureka, riccar, oreck, simplicity, dyson, miele, and electrolux... reliability is based on reported consumer experience... however, among bagless uprights the top test results went to shark, dyson, and hoover... among bagged uprights the top test results went to kenmore, miele, and hoover... it seems the vacuum that works the proper is not always the longest lasting... below is another buying guide... good luck...
