Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Hi,

I noticed an ad by a particle counter maker in  a trade magazine. I've seen one used in an online air quality pitch for Miele and wonder if the folks in vacuum sales here see them as being of any real benefit.  They could help buyers better decide on which make or model to settle on.  Meaning, on a scale from one to ten -- dust blower to super filtration -- could a particle counter be an aid in helping consumers find which models might be a good buy if  "top-of-the-line" won't fit the budget?  Does anyone feel particle counters are reliable enough to be helpful regarding making a vacuum sale?

Thanks,

Venson

I would love to have one but cannot justify the cost at this time. I think it is a great sales tool. I do have to disagree about air quality, while not such a hazard to adult developed lungs small children are affected. You disturb the dust from 2-7 hours when vacuuming.

In answer to your second question:
I don't think a Counter would be helpful in sales for cheaper models that leak and spew dust. A consumer is not going to be impressed with something that "not quite" as unhealthy as another product that is "more unhealthy".
