Hi, I’m looking to purchase an inexpensive vacuum cleaner. I went to Wal-Mart earlier and looked at their selection of vacuums, and came across a Dirt Devil upright bagless cleaner for only . It has a cleaning performance rating of 26 printed on the box. My question is, is this is good clean performance rating? 24 bucks is very cheap for a vacuum, so I have no high expectations here, but is this considered a good cleaning rating?
A decent vac will cost at least $200. The only one in that range that is good is riccar vibrance.
For 24 bucks, just be happy if it works for 2 months. You may get lucky and it will last awhile.
I manage a vac store and never heard of a cleaning rating. That is more likely a rating made up from the manufacturer and how they rate within there own models.
