    How much carpet, upholstery, and draperies can YOUR vacuum handle?

    In the 70s and 80s, carpet, rich upholstery, and draperies, was not only a requirement, it was art.  It was awesome. It was everywhere and.... it needed to be vacuumed.   But, how did we survive back then considering how meager our Beater bar equipped vacuum cleaners were.

    Late 1960s Kenmore Auqua Air Central Vacuum, Ohio

    Some how it uses water to filter or separate. I'm not sure if it emptys itself but I think it needs a water connection to work. It's an interesting vacuum and rare. Ohio https://cleveland.craigslist.org/hsh/d/westlake-kenmore-central-vacuum/7104603677.html

    Would you buy these Singer Vacuum from a Singer Sewing Machine store

    An old ad at the 5:17 mark.   I've honestly never had a singer, nor seen a Singer vacuum in person.     Anyone have experience with these?  Were they so bad it caused the whole chain to shut down?

    The Ideal suction AIr Flow numbers for a Vacuum

    Has anyone/entity put together what the ideal suction range is for vacuuming?   What is the least (not good) and what is TOO MUCH (also not good)    Obviously those old canister vacuums from the 70s with a meager 1/4 or 1/2 h.p. motor were just not adequate.    But then the Hoover...

    My first Robot Vacuum- how was yours?

    So I made a big decision and decided to buy a new robot vac.     It's not the docking, self cleaning, camera-on-board, give your cat a ride, can run and do errands, type bot.  Still, there is the possibility this thing could ACTUALLY do what it's designed for, mainly...... to vacuum.  ...
