[blparent] looking for very powerful vacuum any recommendations?

Tue Apr 24 02:45:24 UTC 2012

 i would try the sebo it is german made and is very good. you can get either 
the model that automatically changes to different floor types by itself or 
you can get one that you half to manually change the floor setting. it was 
originally made for a hospital setting. it is very quiet as far as vacumes 
go. also it is very light. i can cary it with one hand with ease. also if 
you have pets it does a great job with getting up the dog hair. also i have 
had the vacume now for almost 3 years and i have just purchased my second 
box of bags. each box comes with 10 bags. however, you can't find this 
vacume in any wallmart, or target you need to go to a vaccum store.
