Commercial vs Residential Vacuums
« on: September 26, 2017, 06:39:09 PM »
Trying to decide which one to buy. Basic research tells me that the simple pros and cons are:
Pro               
More powerful
Durable
Long lasting

Con
might be too powerful for certain carpets
Heavy
Loud
No special attachments (arms/hoses)
Wheels might not be built for hardwood/ceramic floors

Sebo Vacuums do have the pros of both residential and commercial but their cheap models are super expensive.
Just trying to get an idea of the differences but more importantly, to here the forum's opinion. Can someone help enlighten me,
TIA

For exactly which model I would speak to the local frum vacuum store if you have one and they would know which comes with the best goup of attachments. My experience was that they had better pricing as well.

Aint gonna get better than miele. Doubt that Dyson is on par. But i get your budget issue. I bought it because I got 10% (or maybe 20%) cash back from the CC charge IIRC. I thin it was Discover first year double cash back deal.

I doubt all the Dyson hype. Have you ever seen an American product that is better than a German engineered product. Those Nazis really know how to make stuff.  >:(
