i love allllll my appliances!!! except i have never been happy with the vacumn cleaners i have had......none of them do what i think they should do well. i finally bought one of those tank-type thingys that most people use in the garage.....sorta shop-type thingy......i use it in the house too......it is just great.....just empty it out when needed.....no bags.....the best part is there is great suction so cat hairs and dust and just general stuff just disappears when i use it......the lack of necessary suction was always my biggest complaint.....no longer.....it think the shop vacumn works great inside the house.
