I've had the same one for 8 years and it still works as new. I replaced the sponge filter once.Fr_Tom wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 7:33 amWe have a Shark and like it.Bruyere_Royale wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 7:20 amWhen the time comes to buy a new vacuum you should check out Sharks. Great product.

Well, if our vacuum is going to be launched through the air every time somebody gets pissed about something, I will be buying a less expensive one. Miss the days when the only thing you had to deal with was a paper bag and the occasional belt. ✔Bruyere_Royale wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 7:20 amWhen the time comes to buy a new vacuum you should check out Sharks.

Then you'll be buying more of them or you can go old school with a wood bristle broom.✔Dr Uhaha wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 8:34 amWell, if our vacuum is going to be launched through the air every time somebody gets pissed about something, I will be buying a less expensive one.

That's amazing! It was exactly the same with the mysterious cell phone flights!Dr Uhaha wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 7:05 amWell, I can't be sure, but I believe I heard an angry swear word a full second before the crash rather than afterwards.MikeDennison wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 2:00 amI've had cell phones mysteriously fly across rooms and strike hard surfaces. Anything like that?

Today I learned that buffing wheels can and will scratch the crap out of vulcanite, especially if the compound in them is hard from being in a cold shop. So I am now hand buffing out some scratches I just added to a couple pipe stems.. So the public service announcement for today is 1. warm up your wheels before hogging away on something you value. Or, 2. Just man up and polish the stems by hand from now on, like I will be doing, and you won't have that problem.

Or, [mention]Dr Uhaha[/mention], you could obtain one of those old battleship Electrolux, cast iron, self-propelled jobs. They can't be thrown down the stairs because they can't be picked up off the floor. And if it get's shoved down stairs, it won't break...though it may bust up the sheet rock a little.Bruyere_Royale wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 9:39 amThen you'll be buying more of them or you can go old school with a wood bristle broom.✔Dr Uhaha wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 8:34 amWell, if our vacuum is going to be launched through the air every time somebody gets pissed about something, I will be buying a less expensive one.
