Vacuum cleaner - with shoulder strap?
Mainly wooden floors, so methinks a cylinder vac carried on a shoulder
strap wood be the quickest for getting the dust up. Any recommendations? Tried google but its proving a tedious task. Seems to be increasingly poor for searching. |

Seems to be increasingly poor for searching. I have a Miele cylinder cleaner for my wooden floors - it follows me around easily on its wheels as far as the lead allows. I can't praise it highly enough - it's superb. Why do you need to carry it on your shoulder? -- Mike Lane UK North Yorkshire mike_lane at mac dot com |

We've used them for about twenty years. Not the cheapest but very good. They have a shoulder strap that stows within the body of the machine. http://www.vkdirect.co.uk/ I have no connection with the outfit. Nick. |

I find my old upright Panasonic works just fine - it adjusts the head to the floor. And the brush action removes at least some stuff pure suction doesn't. Any recommendations?
