Q:How efficient are vacuum cleaners in preventing the dust and other dirt that they suck from escaping through the air outlet. I'm using a Khind branded wet and dry vaccum cleaner model VC 3661, priced about USD 60, manufactured in 2004. The type that is shaped like a bucket and has its air outlet facing upwards and a removable, washable cotton bag inside. I notice that it has only two layers (slices) of dark -colored Sponge like material when I remove the air outlet cover. Is that sufficient to prevent dust, dirt and most importantly bacteria from coming out form the cleaner itself. It could be releasing the bacteria and spreading it all over the place.

How much bacteria do you think is in your house??? This is NOT something you should be worrying about.... If you clean properly, and regularly, and then do extra when someone in the household is ill, you're fine.

Q:I just got a dyson ball vacuum. What happens if it runs over a nail or something metal, will it screw it up? Or can it handle it just fine?

Q:are canister vacuum cleaners good brands?so where are they for sale online

Not worth buying an expensive vacuum. I like the Kenmore brand. $250 and it comes with all the attachments and you don't have to order it online you can go to the store and pick it up.

Q:I have never bought a hoover or a vacuum cleaner and need some recommendations. Dont want to spend too much money on it. Will mostly use it to vacuum my carpet. Please provide links for recommendations.

Kenmores are great vacuums and they're cheap. I bout a used one from Craigslist for $40 and it was $200 brand new. So if you want to get a great vac for cheap, go through Craigslist. Just make sure the vac runs before u purchase it.

Q:everytime i turn my vacuum cleaner on ,my dog gos nuts starts barking and trys to bite it, ?? why they do that

Your dog is probably thinking oooh goody a toy play play play play!!!! he/she might also be thinking, Oh no that stupid and loud vacuum cleaner is on again, or What is that thing? Its invading my territory. What if it pees and marks its spot? aah!!!! I would suggest putting your dog outside when you vacuum. It wouldn't hurt your dogs ears as much (because he/she wouldn't hear it) And if your dog does have a territory in your home, and your dog is inside, don't vacuum so close to it unless your dog could really care aless or he/she is outside! I really hope this helped!

Q:what's the difference with this 2 vacuum cleaners

The okorder /... P.S. this is the zoology section, unless you categorise a question yourself, the system decides for you based upon certain words (shark !).

Q:This includes toasters, cyborgs, vacuum cleaners and magnets.

Probably because of our sweet hair-cuts...

Q:are all motors the same size in kenmore canister vacuums?

I would think not. Look at the specs for vacuums you might be interested in and compare the amps or watts or whatever electrical spec is in vogue this year for vacuum cleaners.

I use to be afraid of them too when I was little. I didn't get over it until I was five when my mom asked me to help vacuum. What scared me was the sound and when my mom would vacuum up part of a rug she would freak out and then the house would smell kind of odd and it made an extra loud noise.
