FINALLY a small RV vacuum that works. It's real scary that I can get excited over a vacuum, but dang gummit there had to be one out there that worked.

Last week I threw out my 'fourth' brand new vacuum, the Eureka Boss for not being able to suck up one grain of sand.

Thinking the only way I was going to get this MH clean was to break down and buy a full size vacuum I headed off to Walmart.

What I found is a sleeper, tucked into the shelves of all the 'Brand Name' ones that do NOT work.

It's small, duals as a hand vac and has so many attachments you won't need anything else to clean the RV, and a cord long enough to reach all of a 42 ft MH. An 800 watt Motor!! All those little ones that don't do squat are all just 150 watt. The head of it has a flat surface AND flip a lever and a brush comes down which most don't have.
AND because of its power it 'also' converts to a blower for inflatable's. (I just bought a Coleman blower for this and it wasn't cheap).

Does it suck? You Betcha Ya!
Best vacuum I've bought so far for the MH. Just had to share with you all so 'you' don't have to contribute to the vacuum fund of all the Brand Name ones that don't work.

Durabrand. 800 watt motor, Dual Action Power Vacuum/Blower

so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

Nice that you're getting all excited about something that sucks!
Next you'll be telling us about a fan that "blows"

Thanks for the info. We also get excited when we find something that makes living in our RV more comfortable or efficient.

Yup, that's the one!
I guess us folks up in Wisconsin are on the cutting edge when it comes to vacuums that really work!

I gave up on my Dirt Devil hand vacuum and just got the Eureka Otima Upright. I could not believe how much better it worked with that Hepa Filter, too. Now to find a convenient place to store it. Under the bed it outta sight, outta mind, outta use.

vacumn and could not come up with it. Not even anything on Google.
Anyone know where one might be found??? Thanks

I've seen it at all the Walmarts.
check this list of them on google.

I'm sure when it comes to Walmarts website the 'Brand Names' pay big money to be listed, and the off brands don't.

Heck they want you to buy the brand name ones that don't work so you come back and try another brand name that doesn't work either.

I think it was around $24.00
