Q:the one I have now is very noisy. thanks for any info on this

Try the Sensor 12, or Sensor 15, German made HEPA vacuum cleaners that trap 99.97 per cent of all the dust/dirt it vacuums up. I bought mine at a janitorial supply store. One is 10 years old and works like new, the other is 1 year old and is left on a job site where it is used 2 hours every day. Wonderful machines. Hospitals, hotels, motels, use this vacuum extensively.

Q:I am currently doing house cleaning and using my clients vaccums, but I am wondering if I should get my own, because they mostly have area rugs and their vacuum cleaners are just too strong, it's almost like the vacuum's are trying to eat the rugs! So I was looking at the Eureka, The Boss, and was thinking about getting that, because I just don't want to be liable for a ruined vacuum, or rug!What do you think?Would you rather have someone use your own vacuum which may be too strong, or their own which may be just right?

I may be in the minority here, but I would prefer that a house keeper, cleaning person use my own sweeper rather than one that has been used in someone else's home. It's one heck of a good way to transmit some not very nice things from one home to another. Things like fleas, bed bugs, dust mites to name a few. We have several throw rugs that the vacuum tries to eat and we just clean those with the hand attachment. Yeah, it requires a little bending over and such but oh well. They are laundered on a regular basis so it's more for pet hair removal than anything else here.

Q:I have a 700 square foot apartment with carpeting and a cat...

I would get a bagless one. Less costly in the long run, you don't have to worry about running out and buying bags. Mine came from walmart - works great 5 yrs later. I have a dog.

Q:Is there a vacuum out there it is a certified air purifier? I recently learned that vacuums blow out dust, even ones with expensive hepa filters leak some form of bacteria into the air.I'm looking for facts only, not opinions. Sources preferred.

When you only run the vacuum for 30 mins a week it doesn't make too much of a difference if you want cleaner air you must purchase an air purifier. IQair is said to be a very good brand though spendy.

Q:I live in a 35ft Fifth-wheel Camper and i'm struggleing to find a Small vacuum that dose a good job taking care of my carpets.

You clearly do not understand the nature of that which you speak. You are insisting in applying human terms to that which is not human. On human terms space is a vacuum, which by definition contain nothing. But in physics terms space is a something through which all things, including energies, must pass. In this case space can indeed be bent by a sufficiently large gravitational force. When this happens anything which passes through this space will follow a curved path with respect to the curvature of the space but will follow a straight path with respect to itself. This fact has been proven using the light from a distant star, and observing the curvature as the light passes beside a nearer star, the gravitational field of which bends space, causing the light from the distant star to bend. Thus, the image of the distant star appears in a different (but predictable) position than it would have had the near star not been present. However, bending space cannot be done by scientists, because scientists cannot generate gravity. The bending of space can only be observed as it occur naturally, when space is 'bent' by the gravitational field of a star.

Q:How do vacuum cleaners work?

well if u loook at the brand and try to find the website and you know like yahoo search it u can try and find out how ur special vaccum works

Q:I am needing to get a new vacuum. I have a dog and cat, so I want something that is going to pick up the fur and not get clogged easily. Which vacuum do you recommend?

Years ago vacuums were mostly metal, with plastic used sparingly, as in bumpers, trim, etc. Nowadays vacuums are 98 % plastic, with metal used sparingly, such as in the motor, wheel shafts, screws, etc. Bissell has traditionally used a cheaper plastic, similar to the stuff they used to make those cheapie little toys out of. It doesn't stand up to rough use very well, cracks easily and breaks. Eureka has been in the vacuum business longer and I feel, makes a moderately good product. I'm not aware of any Eureka u/r's that allow for agitator shut down while running. Panasonic makes an u/r with that feature, as does Riccar and Simplicity, all in the $300-$500 range. Bagless machines require more filters to catch the dirt that the bag normally stops, so require that you purchase filters regularly instead of bags. It's a trade off. Also, when you dump the dirt container there's always that little puff of dirt back into the air, which you can frequently bypass with a bag. Consumer Reports rates bagged units over bagless units, nearly every time. One of the best vac's for the money is the Hoover Windtunnel u/r. If you have trouble with your arms or wrists they are available in self-propelled models, if not get one without. They all have great suction and a good agitator system.

Q:In a fit of rage over something that happened at work one day, I came home and it was in my way. I picked it up, beat the hell out of it, and tore it apart with my bare hands. My wife was vacuuming the floor at the time. With hose still in hand, she looked at the mangled remains and exclaimed, 'FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, HON, what the hell that vacuum cleaner ever do to you?'Within 5 minutes, Federal Marshalls, accompanied by a special task force of FBI agents, arrived with a squad of vacuum cleaners from the S.P.C.V.C.:quot;Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Vacuum Cleanersquot;I was arrested per the little known 1982 Vacuum Cleaner Assault Act, taken to Langley, VA, and forced to attend Vacuum Cleaner Anger Management classes. The place was packed.

Wonderful memory, warmly told, great, dry humor! Wish I could give you 10 stars for sharing it with us! PS I lived near Langley once! Always

Q:I have tried duct tape, bounce sheets, rubber gloves, lint rollers and vacuum cleaners. The only thing that has worked is picking out the hairs one by one. We recently moved and the owners gave us a game chair and its like the pet hair is embedded into the cover. (Its just the cover.) I'm afraid to wash it in fear of the hair transferring to the washer and dryer (prior experience) and the clips on the cover may tear it up.

I found good links,sites and advice on all pets.We have a pet rat and they had alot of good sites

Q:What did people do before vacuum cleaners?

Used housemaids.
