Common mistakes when purchasing a vacuum cleaner

Being in the repair business we get to talk to a lot of customers with vacuum problems. Amazing as it sounds, the average American buys a new machine every two years! When most people buy a new machine, it's usually in a department store. They saw someone on TV telling them all about pet hair pick up, not really considering if the machine will be reliable, if parts are available, if it will last a long time, or where it can be repaired or serviced. The sales assistants usually know nothing about vacuums and the worst part is you can't try it out for yourself. So when you leave the store with a box in the shopping cart, you really have not much of an idea of what you have bought.

The best person to ask about most products is someone who repairs them for a living. At East Main Vac and Sew, we have spent over 20 years repairing machines and have a very good picture of what is good and what doesn't make the grade. Our new machines are on display and ready to use so you can actually try them out for yourself and see if your needs are met. Also you get professional expert knowledgeable advice.
