Vaccum Cleaners

[abemom2]

We just purchased 2 air purifiers for the bedrooms (Rabbit Air). I noticed that all purifiers recommend vacumming them, every month or two and some of them also the filters, to clean them.

We don't own a vacuum cleaner, so I'm wondering what to get. We don't have carpets, but I can always use it on the wood floor, instead of daily sweeping, and to clean the couch. We don't have any pets.

I know NOTHING about vacumm cleaners.
What Very Good vacuum cleaner is there for the middle price range?


I see the Dyson recommended a lot. How do you deal with the bagless part of it? When you empty it, the dust doesn't spread all over?

Thanks for any advice,
Ana

we have 90% all wood floors as well and we have a miele and we : LOVE : it. seriously. i didn't think it was possible to love a vacuum cleaner, but we do. they are not cheap, but are made to last 25 years.

Count us in on the Miele club! Love it. We've had ours for six-seven years and no problems!

we have a central vac so I'm not much help with recommendations but a big portion of our main level is ceramic tile and I vaccum it with an attachment that is used for non-carpeted flooring. It's a good way to get all the crumbs and such up.

Those Miele vac's look pretty cool! I'd probably choose between that and a dyson.
