Home and Auto Simplicity Vacuums = Awesome - Page 3

I realize that vacuums are not a huge topic of concern with folks on this site, but after doing quite a bit of research (and testing), Simplicity Vacs are incredible.

We needed a new vacuum as our old Hoover finally died. The Kirby guy came by the house and demoed his product and we finally got him down to $1250 bucks, including a "trade-in."

We tried out the Dyson Animal and it was pretty good as well, and much less than $1250.

While getting something else repaired, we stopped by the tiny local vacuum store downtown and chatted with the guy. He showed us the Simplicity line. The top-end Simplicity blew (or sucked?) all the others away. It had around twice as much power as the Dyson or even the Kirby. It was on sale for $299 (or $399, I honestly can't remember) and was made almost entirely of metal (stainless steel parts, etc. Very little plastic at all). Even better, these things are all made in St. James, MO.

I doubt any of you need a new vacuum, but this thing would certainly be worth a look.

In honesty i already have been researching into getting a new vacuum cleaner.

With Simplicity and Oreck currently as our final choices.

Both around $230-299 price range.

A $70 vacuum mostly just makes noise and picks up dirt from the surface. A good vacuum cleans carpet thoroughly and increases the appearance life of your carpet, and new carpet costs a lot more than a vacuum cleaner.

For real, there is a difference.

It seems logical that for a very expensive vacuum to clean more thoroughly, it would have to be more invasive into the fibers of the carpet. If so, does it not follow that being more invasive causes more damage to the carpet?
