That wasn't my claim ya strawman spewer. My claim is that they are overrated BY FAR.
Strawman your left nipple. Buying used does not support a company, the point you missed.
As for being overrated, that is an opinion your video fails to support. Stipulating a closed backing on installed and an open back on rugs may be true in Manchester pommyland, but what I see here is open backing on installed and tight weave, or latex, or enclosed canvas backing on rugs.
The vehemence of your answer makes me wonder if the local Kirby pimp ran over your cat or off with your wife?
I happen to like my clunky dinosaur. My cat is fine and Herself is still around to feed it.
