    Swift I still dont think even if you maintain it still doesnt cut it. Your neighbor might think that it is working but it is not getting top performance. The weight isn't that bad though.

    Oreck XL Handheld

    Yes... Many people I am sure will follow that. What about Orecks competitors? They sell more models in stores than Oreck does in stores. If they did sell Orecks at more stores and more models I am sure they would make way more proffit than internet. What do you think?

    Oreck XL Handheld

    Orecks are... Orecks really are not that powerful though good cleaners. They dont do good with deep cleaning which many people dont think about. Many people like I said just buy whatever they find without comparing models.

    Oreck XL Handheld

    Maybe? Well yes indeed, but many people run to the store for a vacuum and buy one. But like you had mentioned there are also online buyers. It probably will be stable enough for them. I just dont see the bagless units taking off for them though. After all the people that Oreck had convinced to...

    Oreck XL Handheld

    Oreck says I emailed Oreck, last night I forgot to mention. They said that they make bagless vacuums to bring in a bigger amount of sales. But if they only have 2 models sold in stores where are the sales then

    Vax Swift These units arent swift at all. Just ear ruiner cheap vacs. I wouldnt even buy this vac for $10! The filters are another thing. NOT WASHABLE HERE! You have to purchase a washable one, they get so dirty and clogged the vacuum has barely and airflow

    Oreck XL Handheld

    Yea The Oreck Touch just I dont see being worth it. Very cheap design! Small bagless capacity. I heard the stretch hoses were known to tear

    What about... These units are really ugly and CHEAP!! My aunt had one of these and it literally fell apart after a few years. The are very loud too. I cant use these Dirt Devil uprights like this one. They hurt my ears big time. After I would use them though my ears would have like a ringing in it.

    Oreck XL Handheld

    Many collectors.... Many collectors HATE the Oreck vacuums! I being a collector myself do like them but a TON of other ones don't. The tube that leads to the bag is very narrow and can clog easily. The free canister vacuum is probably better than the upright itself many would say. However I...

    Oreck XL Handheld

    Well... They ALWAYS advertised bagged being better though. Hoover never really did that until the had bag less technology. Oreck was wide open to bagless but they decided to stick with bagged.

    Hoover W2 I think the Windtunnel 2. They are very bulky and the self clean filter does not do its job. I heard many complaints about it. Now if Hoover made a bagged version of it they must have knew that the bagless one isn't that good. Or else just about every Hoover would have a bagged or...

    Oreck XL Handheld

    Oreck Bagless The bagless units I just don't get. Oreck spent YEARS trying to tell people that bagged was the way to go. Then they totally turned around and made the bagless unit. From the way it looks the dust cup capacity is very small. Also the bottom head is the same as the magnesium...

    Oreck XL Handheld

    Yup! Well when you do get the Oreck Magnesium you will know how bad of a machine it really is. It is terrible with deep cleaning. I would rather have a Miele S4 than this Oreck.

    Dirt Devil I totally forgot about those. Yeah they are heavy and ugly too

    A face only a mother could love...

    Well... I obviously collect vacuums and use various types so upright or canister doesnt bother me. But the Vax like I said is too bulky and big to roll around while cleaning.

    Vax I have no problem with a Vax but for a Daily Driver is no for me becuase they look too bulky.

    A face only a mother could love...

    I still... I still just in my opinion do not like the Vax cleaners. I would prefer a Shop-Vac.

    Oreck XL Handheld

    Yeah... I dont like ANY of Orecks newer models. The Oreck magnesium (pictured below) is the WORST vacuum cleaner I have ever seen!!! The thing is about 6 pounds and is all made in China. Now there is nothing wrong with it being made in China but many people think it is not. All of the other...

    Oreck XL Handheld

    I seem to like the white ones better than the black ones but I dont know why. Do you also have Oreck XL uprights in the UK too? I would think so
