Consider Buying a Used Vacuum Cleaner Instead
Have you ever considered buying a used vacuum cleaner? Dont worry, most people havent. They havent because people have become accustomed to buying things cheap and throwing them away when they break. Most of us get into this cycle and dont even realize that there is another way.
The idea of buying something like a used vacuum cleaner is often the furthest thing from peoples minds when it comes time to replace their old unit. They simply assume, wrongly, that the pretty new one with all the bells and whistles at the store is a better investment for their hard-earned dollars.
In reality, as in used cars, if the vacuum cleaner was a quality built unit and has had a reasonably easy life, it can be expected to outlast a new low quality, inexpensive unit that was only built to have a short lifespan. As with cars again, these quality used vacuums can often be purchased for the same or less money as the cheap new ones.
When I say, high quality, I dont mean a used discount store vacuum that is in good condition. I mean a unit that was very expensive when purchased new from the dealer like an Electrolux, Miele or Rainbow. Everyone understands that these vacuum brands are of the highest quality and are far superior to the cheaper units found at the store. They are also known to be substantially more expensive than the discount brands.
Any one who has sat through an in-home demonstration of one of these high end vacuum cleaners is aware of the quality as well as their superiority to the cheaper units in the store, and almost everyone would like to own one themselves. Unfortunately, they are very expensive when purchased new and this keeps most people from being able to own one.
The people who do buy these units are almost always lifelong fans of the product and often will end up upgrading after a few years to a newer model so they can have some new feature or attachment. This creates the opportunity for the consumer who would love to own one of these vacuums but isnt in the financial position to make the substantial investment to buy it new. They recognize that a quality made used product is still a quality made product with a little of the new worn off.
A used vacuum cleaner can be a wise investment as long as you are careful in your purchase. Just like buying a used car, you should always try to verify that the unit is in good shape and has been taken care of. Also you want to make certain there isnt some major problem looming just over the horizon. As with a used car, purchasing from dealer instead of an individual will often give you a little more protection as well when buying a used vacuum cleaner.
