subject: Some Ideas For Choosing A Vacuum Cleaner [print this page] There are lots of different styles of cheap vacuum cleaners such as the Numatic Henry HVR200A on the market nowadays. Choosing the right one in your circumstances is not always as easy as it seems.
Whether you want to just get your home cleaner, clean out your car or whatever, there will be one just right for what you need.
Before choosing your version there are two basic things you need to make your mind up on.
the use that you intend the new one to be for.
budget the amount of money you have available to buy it.
Then you have the function and the price so you can start seriously looking for the most suitable one.
You then have another two choices. You can search around the online reviews sites of which there are many or you can go and walk around the electrical outlets. Personally I like to see and feel what I am getting so I do the leg work first and then go online to find the cheapest price for that model.
It is good idea to understand a few of these things before you start.
People will often say they are going out to buy a hoover. Hoover is actually a brand name but is one of those which has become synonymous with vacuum cleaner. Bissell carpet sweepers predate Hoover by about twenty years however.
An upright cleaner containing a bag for rubbish collecting was how they used to be. A flat version called a canister is another alternative. A wet vac works by water, there are some which use steam and then we have the normal dry vacs.
Lots of versions have come and gone but one that has stood the test of time now is a Dyson. It does not have any bags and the air circulates by cyclone technology to collect the dirt and dust in the bagless cylinder itself.
One other popular model is Henry which is made by Numatic. Other major manufacturers include Oreck, Electrolux and Bosch.
A hardwood floor will need a special attachment. Other attachments are available for things like cleaning out the corners or the chairs and curtains or for using in the car. These are normally detachable from the main cylinder and are used at the end of an extension hose. It always amazes me how many different features such a simple tool can have.
If you just want to do some small jobs such as cleaning crumbs off the table you can get a hand held version like a Dirt Devil. Leakages of liquid onto a carpet can be cleaned up with the water vacs.
You should now realise that you will find what you want as there is such an enormous choice of cheap vacuum cleaners out there.
