I loved mine a few years back, the bags are huge the only problem was picking up weed smell and having it reek, they have pellets for that.
The vacuums about 8 lbs but after using it it can get real heavy with the bag filling up.
I got some bags over 15 lbs.
My motor went out after 1 year, idiots sucking stuff they shouldn't.
Real easy belt replacement.
I figure I going to go thru vacuums so my nv80 as long as I can get them at Home Depot the week of Black Friday for $128 I'll stick with those.
I used a $50 Amazon Gift card I found on my desk yesterday when I cleaned it. I got it two years ago.And I get great deals too.
Looks like Asian porn.
Another gem from Oreck.
But they're too light to vibrate the carpet to get any heavy sand up. Go back and look at your bags you tore open. Was there any sand buildup in them like there would be in your Royal?
remember this thread ?

If your upright vacuum is any good it will suck up a moderate amount of soil without an edging tool along the edge... so what remaining jobs need to be detailed with an attachment or accessory vacuum for me I would say it's about 20%

hmmmm.......why do I feel you're asking this question because your new "mystery vac" love affair doesn't have an easy pull-off hose/tube like most uprights?
..L.T.A.
That's where the Royal is King. It rumbles the carpet at the edges prior to passing, loosening dirt prior to reaching that area. At the moment can't remember the correct term.
