Poor filtration on new vacuums

I haven't seen any bagless vacuum with acceptable filtration except the Dyson if I am being REALLY honest... Even the most similar one (Vax) has dirty filter within like a week or two! Maybe even after a few uses!
 
Filter Queens and Silver Kings have decent filtration, but since they have disposable filters that are replaced when you empty them, they're practically "bagged". I guess you could say semi-bagless.

For pure bagless, yeah, Dyson filters pretty well, and not many others do.

I think every 5 minutes, it gets clogged. Dyson, hohoho, don't get me started. LOL Shark on the other hand I like but, a bit on the expensive side. I would buy a Kirby Avalir for $500 in Orange City, IA."


Please elaborate on your Dyson filtration/clogging issues. I would also like to hear about where you can buy a Kirby Avalir for $500. $500 would seem to be a real steal.
 
I was just at Lowe's so I looked at the new Eureka Suction Seal. It has the foam pre-motor filter. But it has the worst post-motor filter ever! It's just a very very thin charcoal filter.

That Eureka

Looks a lot like the Eureka AirSpeed Unlimited Rewind I used to own. Mine had that same pre-motor filter. The post-motor filter was very similar to the one in your pictures, but didn't have a layer of charcoal.

These days, I question Eureka's contemporary quality.

Well,

I had a few people come in complaining that it smalls bad. The filters are the main problem, and they are messy to wash, leave it to dry for 48 hours, its just, bleh. I just don't like the filtration on them. I'm sorry Dyson lovers, I just don't.
 
Oh,

well there is this guy who sells you a brand spankin' new Avalir w/ EVERY ATTACHMENTS for at least $500-$600. This guy lowers his prices every year the Kirby Com. makes a new Kirby.
 
I just used my Hoover Fold Away. I think it's filtration is worse than the AirSpeed. It is covered in dust, and the post motor filter is so filthy. I have had it for ten years so the motor has to be coated with dust
