Q:Dogs, toddlers, or women?

My cat Barney is PETRIFIED of vacuum cleaners.

Q:I've had my Dirt Devil bagless for only a few years. It was running just fine before we moved to our new house. Our new house has berber carpet. My vacuum does not move well on this type of carpet with a lot of dragging. What is a smooth flowing vacuum for very low carpet?

I've had my Dyson Animal for 3 years now and have not had any problems with it whatsoever. It picks up everything! We bought ours refurbished from OKorder and paid about $400 with shipping, which was a big savings then. I'm not sure how much they run now, but well worth the money!

Q:Here is the question:Inside all vacuum cleaners is a high speed fan. Explain how this fan causes dirt to be picked up by the vaccum cleaner.I am a tutor but dont understnad this so just give em the answers and ill choose your answer, for the kids.

the fan causes the vacuum cleaner to suck-in the air. as the moving air passes by the dirt particles, it's the INTERACTION of the moving air and the dirt that causes the dirt to be drawn along with the air. basically, the air molecules bash into the dirt particle and impart energy (momentum) to the dirt, and this is what makes it move. if there was no air motion over the dirt, then the dirt particles would not respond to the vacuum cleaner.

Q:i need something cheap too

With allergies, buy any one in your price range as long as it has a hepa filter. They filter finer particles than a regular filtered vac. For a reasonably priced name for a starter vac, check the Dirt Devil brands

Q:Is Dyson the best vacuum or are the bagged vacuum still actually clean better, we just put in laminate hardwood floors last year and this year we are replacing all the carpet and want it to last!

Hi okorder and you can check our the performance of our vacuum cleaners, the technology behind it and also see the testing that our products go through to ensure they are durable and easy to use. You can also visit the store and use the left hand panel to filter the range down to machines that are suitable for your particular needs. I hope that this information is useful to you.

Q:I have bought several vacuum cleaners for wood floor and carpet. But non satisfied me. It seems like I just push the pet hair around the room floor with my vacuum cleaner. Please help me which brand is the best for pet vacuum cleanaer?

Are you cleaning carpet or hard surface floors? Based on my experience an up right cleaner is best for carpet, and a canister for hard surface floors. And, in either case to manage pet hair consider a bag-less cleaner. This allows you to clean the receptacle frequently and maintain good suction. Another pointer, to clean on the first pass, push slowly. This seems to be a big help with pet hair on carpet. My hoover windtunnel has stood up well to the challenge of multiple, hair-manufacturing pets. I also use and love the iRobot as a supplement cleaner. I have a programmable version and it runs every night through the main living areas of my home, both carpet and hard surfaces. This has been a god send and improved my relationships with my dog and cats. And, by the way, the best prices for both of these are likely through Costco, on line or in-store.

Q:hair cut for long periods of time just to buy a new one???

Um, I think it's called mental retardation. WHY the hell would you pass up getting primped in the salon just to suck up old pennies and dog pubes off the floor? Jesus, sometimes I wonder about you.

Q:Because gladiators would want something that is versatile, more powerful, and easy to use. Attachments are more easy to change for when cleaning for furniture or stairs and switching from carpet to bare floor can be done at the handle by turning off the power nozzle, then switching to the bare floor tool. Easy bag and filter change.

Any clever gladiator Would choose a Bissell

Q:I just moved into my first apartment and there is rug all throughout the house, I don't really know much about vacuum cleaners, but I need to get one, I want a good one but for less than $100, can someone please help me!!!

Be sure to get one with a beater bar for best cleaning. Check at a local independent vacuum dealer. Often they take in trade-ins on new ones. Otherwise, try Craig's list or your penny-saver local weekly paper. Last time I checked consumer reports, they liked the Eurekas. I also have some Power-Flite equipment for my business and they regularly run commercial uprights (like for hotels and restaurants) for $129.

Q:I'm shopping for a Good-quality vacuum cleaner for my home.I'm replacing the worn-out bagless / upright Dirt Devil(r) unit that my sister bought for me sometime ago. lt;-I find that this unit simply does not CLEAN as well as I want / need it with the suction pulling-in from the side of the beater-brush. (I find that this unit only quot;cleansin 2-inch lines at the intake-side of the brush-head. :-(Considering my shopping (location) options and unit brands; I find HOOVER, DIRT DEVIL, and SHARK at my Wally World at a price-range of $49.00 -gt; 285.00I am considering to also shop / browse at my local KIRBY location.Am I correct to presume that a vacuum cleaner with suction from the Center of the brush-head cleans better than a unit that pulls from the side - or should I expect a unit with a stronger brush-head to clean my carpet and tile surfaces better?And how VALUABLE is a detachable hand-held pipe to my new vacuum cleaner when I have no indoor upholstery?
