Yes, with the reduction of vacuum sales and service stores that I’ve noticed occurring all over, younger generations are not going to know about them and the higher end models that exist. If their parents are buying plastic disposable vacuums at big box stores and throwing them out when they fail, clog, or wear out and just go to the big box store to get another and only see Dyson as the highest end brand then that’s all they will ever come to know for vacuums. Unfortunate. But in the end, someone will do, like Dyson did, and want to build a better longer lasting vacuum. And also one that’s serviceable. The cycle will repeat itself and I feel that it could be soon. I do think the companies that make these higher quality higher end products should up their advertising to better educate the public of their existence otherwise they will die their own slow death due to failure to educate the younger generations.
My niece didn’t have a vacuum for the longest time...just a broom and a dustpan and those annoying swiffer pads. There was something she needed to clean better and finally said she really felt like she needed some sort of vacuum but is on a tight budget. Her Mother gave her an extra she had and I told her to use it because then she wouldn’t have to waste money on those disposable swiffer pads which just drag and push bigger dirt around and still needing to go back with a broom and dustpan...the vacuum gets both the dust and dirt for a quicker more thorough clean up. Plus she can now clean the little area rugs she had rather than having to shake them out outside.
