Buying a Vaccuum

wait for a refurb dyson to appear on woot and purchase

I was going to say get a Dyson until I saw your price limit. For less than $125 you may be able to get a Hoover or something

I saw on Facebook that a couple of my old high school friends recently got suckered into spending thousands of dollars on some vacuum cleaner from a door-to-door salesman.

Idiots.

Even the lowest end miele that lasts for decades is better than a new $100 vac every year imo

Whatever you do don't buy the cheapest one at Walmart. I bought it one time and I would rate it has a 2/10 and it burned up in less than a year. Go to Home Depot and get the Hoover that costs about $150 and it is pretty decent.

I think you can get an oreck pretty cheap these days

I am 24 and moving out of my apartment and need a decent option for a vacuum. I currently have one but it's pretty much broken. Before I buy one, I was wondering if any of you have a good recommendation since I literally know nothing about vacuum cleaners. I am looking to spend like 125 or less.

Thanks

It sounds snooty but buy a good vacuum, frick being cheap on it. The day I got my Dyson, I ran my old shitbox Hoover over my rug a few times and then ran my Dyson. I literally filled up the entire reservoir with dog hair and dirt after running the Hoover a few times. Add on top of that the fact that cheap vacuums are built extremely cheap now, buy a good one now and never have to deal with buying another one again.

Go to a-1 vacuum on florida blvd in the hood in br and buy whatever that guy recommends. I am on my second vacuum from him in twenty years. First one was a $150 one that lasted 14 years until he couldn't get a part for it when a piece finally broke. Second one I paid $400 and it is on year six without any issues at all.

Clean the guts of your old one and it will work like new
