Walmart.com: Shark Bagless Cyclonic Hand Vac, Blue: Appliances

That's what we've got. Does a good job on the floors, and is easy for the kids to handle in the loft, and has a hose for vacuum bags as well.

Are the two links I posted from Walmart basically the same vac? Both are 1 gallon. Just curious which you used before I grab one.

We tried a few cordless stick vacs- Electrolux, Eureka- all were sub-par.
The Hoover Linx Cordless Stick Vac is incredible

Dirt Devil Central Vac

Just finished installing one last Sunday with
the dust pan option in my Daughters 36' Larado Bunkhouse 5er.

Took about 6 hours.

I'm still looking....haven't decided on a vac yet. I do like the ones where the handle folds down for easy storage in the wardrobe area. I do know that I don't want a re-chargable one. The shop vac idea is very interesting still.

Bought and installed the InterVac central system. Installed the unit on the side wall under the overhang of our bed. Great suction and the hose expands the full length of the MH. When not in use the hose stores under the bed. Ended up buying it new on Craigs list for under $ 100.00 and it is worth every penny.

FYI, we just saw this in purple. I should have mention that when the unit is full, it cleans out easy and there is no bag to replace, and the vac can be used as an up right or you can remove the center section and use it in tight places and on furniture.

In the market. Is this REALLY worth the almost $300? Tempted, but how has it held up? Thanks.
