Central vac
#1

Hello everyone,
My name is AJ, French native (please forgive my English). My husband and I just bought a used Newell. I am a little obsessed with cleaning. I was super excited to know our new to us Newell came with a central vac. The ex owner told us they never used it. So my question is do you use your central vac? If not why not and what do you use to clean?

Congratulations on your Newell!

We use a Dyson cordless vacuum as it is easier to take out and hang back up. It is stored in the closet with the solar equipment.

we never use ours either. a portable vacuum. the hose takes up a lot of space and you still have the powerhead. and it isnt very powerful.

You have not obsessed when cleaning until you’ve used the Dyson with the green light on the head and vacuumed in the dark…or so I’m told.

Brad, you are not kidding. We have two of those. One for the house and one for the coach. That stupid light sees everything and keeps you vacuuming into obsession! I think they are overpriced but there is nothing on the market that does a better job. It has replaced out corded vacuum.

Yes we do not use the Newell vacuum but have a Shark which goes nicely where the clothes hamper was.

Here is a Sniglet (a word that isn't in the dictionary but should be)
"Carperpetuation"
The act of running over and over a thread while vacuuming until you finally give up and pick it up with your hands.

To answer your question. I just started using the onboard vac and store the hose over the stack washer and dryer. At home we use a dyson vacuum from the house.
