    How not to sell a vacuum.....

    lack of prep and knowledge of product....no excuse. this is ALL they do....sell products...id be pretty agitated, even tho its live tv and things happen..at least look like you know what your doing. sometimes the illusion is as good as the real thing.

    Help Hoover Windtunnel Aniv

    i believe there is a sensor that light is wired to....follow wires from light to it and poke around...could be dirty/loose.

    Bagless Kirby Conversion

    and i said thats why you can make it yourself..for ones self..real cheap...no market...no niche.. no nobody. what a person does to their kirby is there business...if you own it you can do what you want..freedom of choice, its a simple rubber hose that goes over the part that the emptor connects...
