Thread: Best vacuum cleaner????????

We have a Sauber which it is awesome but you pay for it.
The filter system is excellent and among the best for people with allergies.
We like the power head for carpets, it is easy for our bad lower backs.
The special head for bed and dust mites is excellent as well.

Defiantly not Miele. Gone back twice to dealer (Godfreys) once under warranty after nearly catching fire. Now it's out of warranty it cuts out when ever it feels like it. Over priced rubbish. The LG it replaced as the "house" vacuum is still going strong. Miele kitchen appliances how ever have been very good. Go for something with an emptyable bag.

Onto our second Miele Cat Dog vac. Have used them for over 10 years and they are excellent for long dog hair - we have two Golden Retrievers.

The Nilfisk that we had was excellent, but wore it out . Got talked into a Miele and so far after 2 years no probs.

Dyson,

Had one for about 7- 8 years now, last warranty work we had was at about 5 years. replacement motor - nil cost. Excellent vac, has the hepa allergy filters. Would not hesitate to get another if this one was to pack up.

Don't go Wertheim. I've had two. And we're talking houses with very little carpet.

Work great when they are working but wheels falling off, broken hoses, failed motor bearings....never again.

Two years into an overpriced Dyson....no issue, works great....just exie...

Most of the crap from Godfreys comes out of the same factory but they do vary a bit, our volta is 6 yo and falling apart but still has excellent suction. The hoover we just replaced it with isnt worth its weight in plastic yet i wont get a 2nd mortgage for a Dyson.

We used to have a Volta wet&dry at the house for 4 years, then we used it to vacuum the dust of the angle grinder used during the construction of 3 steel yachts.
It was working ok when we donated it to the recycle shop at the local tip.
The problem with them for us was the filter system to stop micro particles of dust and not power head for carpets.
