I did run across a company that makes commercial vacuums and they look
pretty good. I may be getting one of them myself. The name of the company
is called Sanitaire and they are owned by Electrolux, I believe. Anyway, I
was looking at them and they look like they make quality machines. I'd
take a look at them.

Go down to the Salvation Army/Amvets. Buy yourself a vintage Electrolux
canister vac.
You might have to go back a few times to get all the attachments, but I've
never paid more than $20 for a complete setup.

They were made at a time when you expected to spend over 2 weeks pay to get
a vacuum cleaner that would last a lifetime. The only plastic parts are the
wheels and the handles, and a 50yr old one has a more life left in it than
any new vacuum.

Ive been looking for them for at least 10 yrs and still havent found
one. Ive found kits of electrolux attachments..but Never a canister
vac.
