I am now using a Hoover GUV with a separator. It works fine for a while.

I see a 12a househole cyclone vacuum on ebay. I am thinking (hoping)
that
the fine dust would settle out in the cyclone, so I will have a good
system
forever. Anyone try this?


My experience with cyclones is that the heavier stuff drops down into
the pre-cannister, so the only thing that gets to the vac IS the finer
dust. You're gonna need more filtering, I'm thinkin.

I have never used one but that was was I feared. The Dyson claims it has no
filters of any kind. How do they do that?
