Upright Electrolux models better than the cheap cleaners from Walmart

[ronni]

Thanks, Andy. I do think Tom makes a valid point that Lux uprights are not sealed and will therefore always leak some dust particles through their edges and openings. Other brands that are sealed and have height adjusters for deeper cleaning would outperform Aerus (Electrolux) cleaners based on those criteria.

That being said, I still think that given the fact the overall style of the '80s-era tanks, uprights, centrals, shampooer/polishers, and accessories (along with the '50s-era combination tools) have changed so little is a demonstration of their quality, reliability, longevity and customer satisfaction. I also think that Aerus (Electrolux) products provide ample performance for those who use and maintain them properly, add filtration as you have, regularly vacuum, periodically shampoo, and do what they can to prevent ground-in dirt and soiling.

To Dysonman1, I meant to ask if the it where the Discovery II that outperforms the Walmart products, not the other way around. I was using a passive voice, but thank you anyway for the info on filtration.

To other people who posted comments on this thread, I'll put my previous comment in detail. One of the things that I like to do is to ask dumb questions to other people that can be answered with a big "DUH", even if I know the answer, just to see how other people would react to these questions, especially the ones that involve the comparition between expensive-but-great-quality products with the cheap, shoddy and disposable products like those we could see at Walmart. I wasn't serious about comparing the upright models from Electrolux and Aerus with the Walmart stuff. I only posted this thread as a joke.
