    I need a vacuum for carpet

    Any recommendations? Dont give me that Dyson bullshit because we all know its all show and full of shit. Everyone who has owned one has told me this. And the dyson ball is the worse idea ever. I'd rather have caster rear wheels.
    Ma che cazzo state dicendo? :|

    It isn't. I have one of the original Dysons and love it. But, I do not have wall-to-wall carpet.

      Ditto. I was the same thinking as you until I actually got one. Lot of really cool features. Granted, I got mine for $50 brand new on clearance. I probably wouldn't have gotten one otherwise.

      I saw a Bosch vacuum once that was all metal and badass. Not sure how well it worked though.

          Sorry dude, Dyson here to. We have 2 cats and a long haired dog. The Dyson fucks the hair up. Plus, you can look like a boss while vacuuming with the space ship looking design.

            regular style (not that ball crap) DYSON ANIMAL. when i got it, it was supposed to be the best for pet hair.

            damm right ot tears some pet hair up! you will also see a ton of nasty crap come out of your carpet in the catch can too.

            IIRC i paid around $200 7-8 years ago for it off of ebay. at that time they were in the $400-$500 range.

            when i brought it home, my roommate said "dude, what the hell is that? Superman's vacuume?"

              Orecks are nice! We have had three, sold the one and got a newer one off CL.

              Oreck pro is our other one we picked up off CL

              Oreck offers lightweight upright vacuums, bagless vacuums, convenient hand-held models, versatile steam mops and a family of air purifiers — products for every room in your home.

                    Dyson again.

                    I have used all of the variants, and they are top notch. All other vacuums are second.

                    I have vacuumed my office with a hoove wind tunnel twice, then ran over it again with the Dyson. So much extra crap was in the canister of the Dyson that the other vacuum missed, it literally wasnt even funny.

                        I have a Meile plus and it is without a doubt the most impressive vacuum I have ever used. The automatic cord reel makes it even better.

                          My mother has issues with dust and other air born particles. They have used everything from Electrolux to Dyson etc. Best one hands down is the Rainbow brand. Not only does it use a water system to collect dust and other unwanted bits. But it cleans the carpet like no other vacuum I have used. Only one better was the commercial grade one used when I did detailing(steam vac).

                          Granted it cost a bit over 1,800...don't know why I posted it here. Most e30s on here cost half that xD lol wrong forum.

                            I'm still waiting for a company to come out with a silent vacuum cleaner. I mean, if they can make a nuclear sub absolutely silent, why can't they do the same for a vacuum?

                              Because no one would buy one.
