Vacuum Sweepers

Post by RuthE. » Wed Jul 22, 2009 10:53 am

I know this isn't sewing related, but I really need your opinions. I want a vacuuming sweeper that's easy to use. One where adding the attachment to get cobwebs, etc. is easy to get off and on. Also one that is has an easy container to empty. I seem to pinch my finger or break a nail. And of course one that's not too expensive. Thanks gals, I know quilters are like me, wanting to get back to sewing and not vacuuming all day. Thanks.........

Dyson Ball vacuum if money is not a factor. I bought three Bissel floor vacuums $20 at Walmart last Christmas, I keep one in my bedroom closet, DD's closet, and one is my sewing room. It has great suction, bagless and very lightweight. I have carpet in my sewing room and big area rugs in the other rooms and I am very pleased with the inexpensive Bissel.

I've got a Sears canister vac that really has power, an extra long cord...I can cover most of the house without unplugging. And all the attachments ride along to be used at any time. The only complaint I have is that the attachment cover is a bit flimsy. Try it out in the store.
