I've been borrowing a friends Dirt devil and really should get my own
vac, any suggestions?

Stay away from the bag less type. Especially if you live in an
apartment and do not have easy access to the outdoors. In
the bag less variety you release some dust when you empty
the canister. You must also clean the filter which releases even
more. It is best to do this maintenance outside.

It is easy to be duped into paying way to much for a deluxe vacuum.
There are plenty of them out there. Why not settle for a much cheaper
mainstream vacuum that works almost as good as the deluxe impress
your neighbor variety. When the cheaper one gives up, buy another.

Look at the reviews on www.epinions.com
