    Shark Stratos cordless

    I got a decent deal on a like new/open box Shark Stratos vac on eBay after deciding it sounded like a better version of the Shark duo Clean cordless with the Ion battery. The old one plugged up constantly where the vacuum power head to hose connected and I would have to pull the head and suction...

    What happened to the OnePwr?

    Just ordered a 3 gallon wet/dry onepwr. Like title says just got it from Woot for 69 shipped and already got a 6.5 chinese battery for it so different versions are still out there. Been finding a small wet dry vac would be handy around here and we have birds so always messes to clean up...

    Ecovacs Deebot Ozmo T8 AIVI Vacuum & Mopping Robot

    I recently got a 901 and I'm loving it. It has learned the house and vacuums every night at 2am. 1400 sf and it does maybe half of it because of things here and there that it can't really get to and tight spots, plus stay away from Dobby the parrot.I'd love to be on Vine, maybe someday... That...

    What have you done since Stay At Home ???

    We are going into phase 1 Friday. Sister goes back to work at the restaurant Saturday and Sunday till things pick up. I'm doing chimney cleanings now after 30 some years doing the tuck pointing and brick repairs on all the roofs. We both get unemployment plus the bonus so we're doing fine. I...

    possibly my next vacuum

    My Salon uses something like that. The gals just sweep the pile to it and tap the switch. Pretty cool for those type of shops.

    TWO ON EBAY RIGHT NOW!!!!!!

    I have a newer version of the 3n1 you linked I bought from Amazon on a dirt cheap sale to use to clean up after my parrot and small touch ups. I probably got it 10? Years ago when I was living in the old long term rental. It started smelling hot so I stopped using it and then all the cordless...

    OH YES- Even More Daily Drivers

    I think I had that Kenmore vacuum as one of the first ones I used back when I moved to my own rental house. Pretty sure I paid 10 bucks for it at a garage sale. I remember the power head worked pretty good but the case was cracked so it spewed dust a lot. I eventually got a almost new Royal 413...

    Just bought an Oreck XL on eBay

    My lil sister gave us a XL and I was pleasantly surprised how well it worked on our medium pile carpet. My Mom spotted it and claimed it and I think she really likes it seeing how it's light and easy to push around.

    Coronavirus (COVID-19)

    Well the rocks have subsided pretty much with the vitamin and mineral thing and I get a checkup every year and no major issues. The ones I have are under control with the prescriptions. Plus one of them is known to cause a dry cough for some people that take it.

    Coronavirus (COVID-19)

    Well I got the flu shot early this year but who knows. I was very stuffed up and finally did Tylenol and Ibuprofen and 12 hour decongestant nose spray because what we had wasn't cutting it and I was hearing some rattles as I was breathing. It lasted almost exactly a week and I didn't get a fever...

    Coronavirus (COVID-19)

    I always have a occasional cough between what I do for a living and maybe the few prescriptions I take. I don't think it was much worse than normal. My litter sister is now convinced she had it and will probably take a antibody test. I will take one eventually I think as well. If I did get it it...

    Coronavirus (COVID-19)

    I have been off mostly for close to two months but my side of work was slow already, then non essential businesses got shut down. I also got a bad cold for about a week just before we shut down and was on unemployment so they didn't need me and closed up. Couldn't smell anything and even got a...

    Royal

    I loved the 413 Royal canister I got about 91 for 200 a year old or so. I eventually found a 4650 with a bad power hose for 25 after I bought my house about 2013 and I got another complete hose set up for it. The powerhead on it was way better plus the variable motor speed and brush shutoff on...

    New Deebot 901 robot coming

    Well today it was on the charger but I had picked it up to empty it and clear the main brush and so it stopped charging and didn't automatically clean last night. I had it go to the charger till it charged up and started a manual automatic clean. It said new location found and built itself a map...
