I mean really, vacuums are so simplistic. Motor, suction, bag to catch the crap. The whole thing of the trash you suck up passing through important motor parts withstanding.

But really, who disliked the bags of vacuums? It hid how much filth you'd let accumulate. I've never had a bag rip or pop open..and if it did, easy peasy to vacuum it back up. What was the problem? Really?

Obviously, I'm pissed as hell that after the death of my old reliable vacuum late last year, I was forced to purchase the "bagless" wonders that were the only thing available at Target. And I hate it!!!!

Emptying it out is a hassle and has the peril of spreading dust and dirt and god knows what all over your floor. Not to mention into your lungs. Top it off that they don't come w/ replacement filters and that thing gets gunked up amazingly fast in just a once over of my itty bitty place (mona, pt, sixersfan, you know how little real estate I have). I can't imagine using it for an entire home. It would be full after one moderately sized room.

Really, what was the damage? Or is this a ploy to sell more product? I can see the filters (that I've never seen on a shelf in a store, mind you) flying off the shelves much faster than the old roomy bags. I can see bagged vacuums making a reapearance in a couple of years and people flocking to buy them to replace the old ones.

Maybe it's a conspiracy to make us all wish we were rich enough to have housekeepers.
