I know this might seem like an odd question, and this might be the wrong community (if it is, pls tell), but I’m currently looking for a reliable, but very cheap vacuum cleaners.
For years my family just bought the cheapest name brand vacuum that they could find in the nearest store, but they all suck (pun intended) these days. I think most of companies just whitelabel asian vacuums and sell them for as much profit as possible, and the end users end up with vacuums where random plastic clips break and the vacuum just not turning on, directly after the warranty expired.
Our new Philips one just kicked the bucket, and now we try to not repeat our mistakes. Is there any secret brand for our purposes?
We practically vacuum the whole house daily because of the dog hair. We’ve had bad experiences both with bagless and non-bagless, so that doesn’t matter, as long as the bags are reasonably priced. The budget is pretty much what the cheapest supermarket vacuum would cost, and probably not much more.
The vacuum needs to be available in Germany.
I hope theres some good household tech out there anymore, god I love capitalism so much
If you have any questions, let me know
I agree. I maintained a dyson (I think it was a V6) for a couple of years. They are generally designed so well, it literally pokes your eye where they made the materials extra thin to break earlier (for example the pipe connection mechanism and the electrical connectors)
I gave up when the main body started to break. Using a Philips now. Better in many ways but still far from perfect.
The availability of spare parts is really good though for dysons. Lot of cheap stuff on Amazon and eBay. Buying a spare battery for the Philips for example is much harder.
