    BrandSpark Canadian Trust Study of Vacuum Cleaners

    I’ve taken the liberty of analyzing your so-called “scientific methodology,” and frankly, it collapses faster than a Hoover bag under hyper-compression flux dynamics. You keep tossing around the term science, but what you’ve produced isn’t science — it’s a garage experiment contaminated by...

    Favorite cordless stick vac’s

    Just curious if anyone has a favorite, I have a few of them for simple pick ups on my hard wood floors, but my favorite one is my black and decker off Amazon. It works super well, it’s light, and it’s simple to service. I’m not a big fan of cordless stick vacs but I do like this one. -Jack

    Dirt Devil Broom Vac

    Hello, I saw a free dirt devil broom vac from the 90's for free on Facebook marketplace. So I decided to pick it up. I haven't gone to get it yet, but I had a few questions. The first issue is it has no charger. I'm Hoping there's a generic one in my bin of random cords that will fit. The...

    The last kirby has left the building

    All of this is pure opinion, not fact. If you think Kirby’s and other vintage vacuums us collectors cherish are so bad. Stay out of the vintage section of the website.

    The last kirby has left the building

    No, I mean Kirby’s deep clean better. Dysons are fine for quick pick up’s. But there not ment to be your main vacuum.

    That’s not true, The tenny tiny stick vac motors will never out clean a Kirby. I know from experience.

    What to do with this Kirby Classic Omega 1-CB?

    People are just referring to the cosmetic condition of the machine. These Kirby’s are built like tanks. So it most likely works fine. I use my vintage vacuums daily, and display them.

    The cordless stick vac formfactor

    I have to disagree. When you measure suction and airflow directly, Dyson machines consistently fall behind Sanitaire units. Beyond raw airflow, Sanitaires also deliver far superior agitation, which is critical for dislodging embedded debris from carpet fibers. The combination of higher airflow...

    The cordless stick vac formfactor

    Well explain this, how come when I vacuum with my aunts Gen 5 then go over it with a 4 amp Sanitare it picks up much more than the Dyson? What’s some of your “science” that can explain that?

    Shark Navigator Lift-Away Speed Pet with Zero-M (ZU561)

    That's normal, I'm pretty sure it's the suction release valve. The filters are clean right? Oh also speaking of filters! I have some shark filters you can have for the price of shipping if you want. I no longer need them. -Jack

    $7 eBay metro vac hand vacuum.

    I saw this on eBay and thought I’d buy it for fun. It looks like a pretty solid hand vac, I hope it’s not a scam. Thoughts?

    Can anyone identify a vacuum by a handle?

    Reminds me of one of these Hoovers, I’ve never seen one in red though. It’s a mystery!
