What Vacuum cleaner should I buy
« on: October 20, 2010, 12:08:38 pm »
Hello,
I'm new to the industry and just purchased an existing business but the previous chap didn't vacuum the carpets, I'm going to and wondered should I buy a Sebo or are Dyson's up to the job?
Any advice much appreciated

James is right. Get a Sebo BS36.

BS 36 for its versatility

If a Kirby could clean edges very easily like the sebo then I would say a 2nd hand Kirby.

Same problem with the Royal though, Dave
If you want to do edges its a bit of a bind, except more so with the Royal then the Kirby.

Get yourself a pile lifter and you will no longer need that gym membership so it will pay for itself. ;D

We use them on every job.
Superb piece of kit but knackering when you have to carry them up 3 flights of stairs.

When I used to work for someone we had to use them on every once did a job up a spiral staircase!!

I'm surprised that sebo haven't brought out a brush roll that is covered in bristles.

I have the Chemspec pile lifter vacuum, great piece of kit, no longer available now. I do not use it all the time due to  the weight , so the BS36 comes out on 98% of jobs.
