Hoover Duros Power Nozzle Canister Vacuum, Bagged, S3590
my wife had been looking around, for a good while at different styles and types of vacuums. she has tried the bagless styles and was very displeased with them. after many considerations (oreck, kirby and etc.), she chose to try this one. after using it for several weeks, she has stated that she was very glad that we bought his one. i, myself, was totally surprized at the quality of this hoover. it's very well built (not flimsy like most other vacuums at this price), very easy to move around, and has very strong suction power. my wife likes the way that the wands fit together easily, without the cord being in the way (the cord that dangles from most vacuums with the power nozzles) and the fact that you don't have to change one nozzle to another (rug to bare floor) to finish vacuuming, just push the bar from rug to floor and it's done. the only thing that my wife didn't care for was that two of the attachements tools are stored on the wand, which does at times, come off when...
I didn't think I liked canister vacuums
I bought one because we have both wood floors and carpeting. This machine does a great job on both. It's much more powerful than I imagined it would be. While the canister is heavy, you're really only dealing with the much lighter handle. Even the stairs are easier. I've had bagless versions, and frankly, I'd rather not deal with the mess. The bag acts as a filter, so you're changing the filter everytime you change the bag. I've heard that the canister style lasts longer. We have two long-haired fur balls at home, so we usually burn out a vacuum cleaner in a year. The upright models designed so that the mess doesn't go anywhere near the motor run about $500. The bags are available here and at about a hundred web sites on-line. Don't look for it at your grocers though.
Nice Vacuum
I almost bought a bagless canister, but all use a pricey hepa filter and are priced close to $200 up. So I decided I wanted a simple old-fashioned canister vacuum with bags and at least some metal. That's when I discovered the Duros had metal wands and I also noticed it was listed as one of the best reviewed vacuums by Consumer Reports. Although it was rated in the middle - I read every review I could find. I just didn't want to spend $400 on a silly vacuum. The Duros uses low price bags, has no hepa filters to worry about, and the two motor filters are washable that they recommend cleaning at least once a year. (Hepa or no hepa, as long as there is air for us to breathe - we will always have dust and allergens floating around.) I find less mess and cleaner emptying of dirt with the bags. This vacuum was less than $150. It has very good suction, and seems better built than some of the plastic $300 models I've looked at. The great thing is, the suction can be controlled along...
