LG Electronics Kompressor® Plus  $399 at HOME DEPOT

Description

Pick Up More, Empty Less. LG is introducing its first ever line of vacuums in the U.S. Market. LG patented Kompressor® technology utilizes the world's first motorized compression system and a larger bin to compress the dust intake to hold more household dust than non-compressor models.

This has been talked about here and appears to have finally made it to the USA market.

Hi Carmine,

Yes, I saw it the other day. You could have knocked me over with a feather. Sears usually asks more than $320.00.

Then SEARS sellng new DC14 for $219, a 50 percent discount, must have knocked you out!

Hiya,

Hiya,

You bet it astounds me. I still can't get my head around why Sears just doesn't adjust its everyday prices to more attractive levels. However in regard to the DC14, maybe they are merely trying to deplete their stock for that model? They're carrying the DC28 and other more current standard and ball models.

Hi Venson:

Yes indeed.  Lowes selling dysons at 30 percent off of MSRP.  Bed Bath and Beyond at 25 percent off.  DC24 at $ $299.  DC25 Animal $399.  DC28 $449.  If I recall correctly so is Target at 35 percent off.  How low can they go!

I luv it!  Beats the king size bed bugs one bagless maker use to use years ago.  My 4 grand daughters will enjoy this video too.

BTW, I note that most big box retailers are selling the LG 300-B for $350 before discounts.  A decent price.

BEST BUY stores is advertising and selling the LG 200 upright [with auto cord rewind] on sale this week for $250.  A $50 savings from MSRP.

If my vacuum can remove even one spec of dirt that yours misses, then mine is better than yours - even if there's no proof that mine would have picked up as much dirt as yours...

To anyone who has used the LG vacuum, how does it compare to Dyson products?  Is it a good copy or is it a clunker?  

The smart tyrant writes his own story to ensure that it is favorable.  The lazy will repeat lines from the book without fact checking.

Hi Severus,

There's no copying going on. I actually have both the LuV200 and LuV300 in my possession. The high-end LuV400 is basically the same cleaner but has a couple more bells and whistles plus more attachments.

I feel the best in show is the LuV300 which has a decent attachment set-up though it sacrifices a cordwinder that offers 30 feet of cord for a 40-foot cord that you must rewind by hand. As I'm pleased at not having to worry over spots where I can plug in every 20 feet or so of travel, to me that's no big deal though it may be a tragedy to some.

The LG vertical cyclonic system is blessedly simpler and easy to maintain. A foam pre-filter is at the frontlines and, as long as the cylonics are not compromised does a good job. LG suggests that it be checked every three months and rinsed out under plain, cool tap water if need be. LG also supplies two with each machine so should one need cleaning a fresh one can be used in its place. The HEPA is the same -- just pop it out rinse it out under the tap and put it back when dry.

The cleaners weigh 22 pounds but feel less flimsy that most of the Dysons I've tried and best of all they clean well. The "300" model incorporates its hose handle, wand and turbo tool for guiding and steering the machine for upright use. The parts come off the machine with just the press of a button and you're good to go above the floor.

Suction is quite impressive and as always I'm in the process of discovering how mean you can be to this cleaner. Thus far I've been pleasantly surprised. I'd go just about anywhere with this machine and anticipate a job well done.

As for value, the only Dyson comparable to it would be the DC28 that lists at 600 bucks. However, regarding price points laid against features offered (two speeds, height adjustment, remote switch, more convenient attachment use), as far as I'm concerned the LG LuV300 leave's Uncle Jimmy's DC28 -- pardon the pun -- in the dust.

Best,

Venson
