Best Vacuum
Can anyone shed some light on the best vacuum out there?

I really loved my Oreck because it was so lightweight and I also thought it cleaned very well, but it only lasted for about 6-8 years and for $300 (I'm sure it's probably much more now as this was several years ago), I thought it should have lasted longer. The electrolux is also a great vacuum if you don't mind hauling around a canister vac and they are pretty pricey too. I have family and friends who have Dyson's and love them, especially if you have pets. I hear they pick up pet hair like no other vacuum. They range in price from about 300-600+ and they are very heavy, so not the greatest for stairs or people with bad backs which I have. One of my brothers got one and took it back because it was just too heavy. Kirby's are also good, but again, very heavy and pricey. Right now I have a plain old Hoover and it works well. Nothing fancy except a hepa, allergy filter and headlight. What I really love, but only use for a quick pick up is a Shark rechargable stick vac. It won't do the deep cleaning, but is great every other day in between really vacuuming weekly. HTH and good luck with your decision!

I have an Oreck and it's ok. I have heard Dyson's do the best job sucking the dirt up from your carpet but I have also heard that some carpet companies will void their warranty if you use a Dyson on the carpet as it can ruin some so check with your carpet company before buying one.

I, too, love my Oreck!! I'm on my second one... first one lasted over 10 years.

LOL!! I was just coming to post a similar question!! Our hoover windtunnel has bit the dust So we need to be doing some vacuum shopping as well! Pet hair is a big issue in our house, and while I'm already sold on a dyson, my husband isn't..... Looking forward to hearing more comments! Thanks for starting the thread Kim

My husband is interested in the Kenmore Progressive Direct Drive - does anyone have one of these?! It's half as expensive than the dyson but rated highly. Thanks! (Sorry to be highjacking your thread Kim!! )
