There are so many vacuum cleaners on the market today. Choosing a vacuum cleaner or any product, you must try to ensure that you are making the correct buying decision. Often buying cheaper vacuum cleaners will eventually cost you more money in the long term.

Major vacuum cleaner manufacturers today will deny the fact that a lot of vacuums and appliances are specifically developed to break down after a predetermined time, which is called \’planned product degeneration\’.

The vacuum industry market is full of underhand methods to maximise profits. This shady policy of pre planned goods degeneration is more common than you may think, and is a real earning strategy for the companies involved, as these machines/vacuums will also gradually decline in popularity as well.

Today, consumers are deliberately forced to buy more products more often, and the temptation of a newer or better vacuum model is just too much to refuse. You do not need to look far to find these sub standard products which are cheaper than the rest, but at the end of the day you will most likely pay more as you will need to replace them over time.

New vacuum cleaner break down is very common in the industry/market, because the number of relatively new products that fail are under one year old, and this is just unacceptable. Unfortunately there are large amounts of vacuum cleaner consumers moaning about bad workmanship and the very high breakdown rates of vacuum cleaner machines after only short periods of minimal residential use.

There are plenty of methods to avoid being sold an inferior vacuum cleaner if you do a little homework. Today we have only a handful of quality vacuum manufacturers that are so confident in their merchandise, that they can afford to issue long warranties or guarantees on them. But as the old saying goes – \’you only get what you pay for\’, seems very relevant when buying anything today because these type of goods are more expensive but will last you for years.

The vacuum cleaner manufacturers I am referring to often offer 5, 10 or even lifetime warranties on the motor which is a great deal, if you can afford the vacuum. Do try to get as long a warranty as you can, even if it means negotiating with the sales staff if you are not buying online. Adding to this advice, watch for exactly where the warranty applies to – because it could be the motor, labour or components/parts.

Naturally some people are correctly sceptical about the consumer reviews and reports on the internet and in magazines, but they still offer very good information to you before making your final buying decision. Further more, they give you the in-depth information that the typical manufacturer would probably hold back from you.

It\’s wise not to fall for any sales hype regarding any product or latest vacuum cleaner. This may seem fairly obvious but these experienced sales staff do know how to close a sale, so it\’s always best to do a little studying first on your intended purchase before you do anything drastic, such as getting your credit card out.

Purchasing cheap is probably the only guaranteed way to find yourself in a few months/weeks time, staring hopelessly at your broken vacuum cleaner and regretting not buying the more expensive mode,l that would have lasted you much longer and provide better cleaning performance too. My opinion is that buying an inexpensive vacuum cleaner is a complete waste of your time and money, as you will have to purchase a new vacuum quicker than you thought you would.

Eco friendly Energy Star vacuum cleaners are more expensive than the rest, but they are quality products that have very long warranties. They are also more energy efficient which means that over a length of time, you will save money on your electricity bills. Germans have the best attitude to buying or investing in household appliances. They have a \’Buy Once Attitude\’.
