    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    I have a newer version of the 3n1 you linked I bought from Amazon on a dirt cheap sale to use to clean up after my parrot and small touch ups.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.

    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

    OK, it does it's thing every morning about 2am and runs for 20 to 30 minutes getting everything it safely can. I set up a few virtual stay out boxes for the areas it can get jammed up with and to keep it away from Dobby my parrots area. I banged something close to his cage the first night...

    New Deebot 901 robot coming

    Showed up yesterday Well it is a nice little robot that gives updates in a woman's voice and works with Android and Apple phones or tablets. When you first fire it up it starts running along the edges like mowing a lawn slowly building a map of the room, then picks a direction and does...

    Odd little vacuum

    Xiaomi makes some decent robot vacs They make some very highly reviewed mapping robot vacs with lidar mapping and really good suction power so they do make some good stuff when they want to. I can't say how good or reliable that thing is but the concept is great. Would certainly be handy to...

    Royal Model M2028

    Really sweet looking machine. I bought a 12? Amp beat up monster that works because it had a box with most of the attachments for 25 bucks. I figured the attachments, even if it wasn't everything was worth it and if the vacuum kinda works bonus. Yeah they never seem to have the attachments so...
