What's a decent vacuum cleaner?
#34
In France, I HAVE three....all Vax wet-or-dry variants.
One was bought off ebay for £10, and promptly burnt out the motor, so I exported a new motor for £29 and fitted it myself, and now it sucks well again.
Interestingly, Vax declined to help me source one on health and safety grounds as "You might not fit it correctly and it might, then, be dangerous....."
I got one off ebay.
All three are fitted with cloth bags and I have one spare, so when one gets VERY dusty/dirty, it gets the clean spare and it's bag goes in the wash.

I've got a industrial vacuum cleaner.
It's awesome! It has lots of suction massive power lead, metal pipes, can use it to suck up fluids comes with all attachments and less the £100
So much better than them crappy plastic style icon hovers that cost a fortune.

BUT the new ones are only 600watts
Somone needs to do a direct comparison, as unless it uses a fancy turbine or high speed DC motor the latter must have less suction - I looked on the numatic webpage and they are very vague on it, which suggests to me that the new 600watt Henry does have inferior suction to the old "banned" model.
But FWIW, I think our DC04 had better suction than all the cleaners Ive used or tried. With the exception of a giant twin motor Numatic the size of a wheelie bin.
