I walk the vacuum aisle at Walmart yesterday

It is probably 80% do it yourself type of equipment.

Very few just normal upright vacuum cleaners anymore, mostly stick vacs and a whole lot of extractors and four five robots in a very long isle...


And a chemical selection that rivals that at Aramsco..

In my opinion, that’s the tool this industry needs the most … a commercial vacuum. We’ll most likely never see one.

If you could design one what would it look like?

Besides vacuuming well, it needs a detachable edging tool and furniture tool. It needs interchangeable size heads for residential and commercial vacuuming. I’d want a canister but having a bag wouldn’t be a deal killer. Most important, and this is the least likely to occur, I’d want exclusivity within our industry.
