    Why Collect Vacuums?

    The reason I collect vacuum cleaners is because I have always been fascinated with washers/dryers/dishwashers/vacuums/shampooers since I was 5 years old. I am currently 36 years old. Mechanical things always intrigue and relax me.

    Made in the USA, does it matter? What is truly built to last?

    Made in the USA, does it matter? What is truly built to last?

    IMHO, Kirby/Rainbow/Filter Queen/Thermax/Aerus Electrolux/TriStar/Riccar/Simplicity are equal in build quality and reliability. They are the best vacuums currently being made today.
