Rug doctor acquired by Bissell?

From my experience, I never had a problem with emptying out a cyclonic central vacuum. I just wrap a garbage bag around the bin, dump it, let the dust settle for a bit, then take the bag out and wrap it up. Plastic liners can work, to me I don't necessary need them. If I could, my ideal central vac to have for my next house would be a bagged central vac hooked up to a cyclonic separator like MD or VacuMaid for example. But they're definitely expensive. I'm better off to just get a true cyclonic Vacuflo instead which I certainly wouldn't mind having and could probably end up getting for my next house. I also never had a problem with the filtration on the ClearTrak. Sure it doesn't have many layers but it's a design that's been around for decades and honestly I've seen alot worse from newer modern vacuums that I wouldn't touch. If I didn't had a central vac and if I could only use bagless vacuums, the ClearTrak is the only one I'd ever use that I wouldn't mind having which I actually have three of them myself (one is technically a CMS 1000) and they're one of my all time favorite vacuums.

Not to sound rude, but you're kind of proving my point with you emptying a bagless CV like that...

As for the Cleartraks, like I said, I can't speak on their filtration (or really anything about them for that matter). At some point I'd like to get one for myself. I like their looks and stuff, and they seem like solid machines from what I've seen. One of those, a 2009 DD Breeze with a red handle, A Fantom, a Twin Chamber Windtunnel (besides a Dual V, which I already have), maybe some 2000s to 2010s Bissells, and other oddball bagless machines are probably the only ones I'd want to have in my collection.

I know you're not trying to be rude. How would you know you're proving your point? You haven't even seen me how I empty out a cyclonic central vac before. They're probably the cleanest bagless vacuums I've ever maintained that isn't water filtered like my three Rainbows I have (two D4C and one E2).

From thread: 31327 about cyclonic central vacs. He also hasn't had any complaints about emptying out his Vacuflo.

I'm surprised to see this being discussed years after the fact.
