There are more homes now that use hardwood as their flooring. This is understandable considering that wood floors
have an elegant, warm and cozy feel to it that no cement or tile flooring can duplicate. With proper care, hardwood
flooring becomes better looking as it ages.
Dust, dirt and water are hardwood's worst enemies as they can scratch the surface. Using a broom and a dustpan is
not the most efficient way to clean your floor. The best way to wipe away the dirt and keep the luster of the wood is
to use a vacuum cleaner. There are several choices in the market, and therefore it is important to learn how to choose
the best hardwood floor vacuum. Here are tips to help a buyer get the best vacuum cleaner for his wood flooring:
1. Before you even go to the store to choose, get on the internet and read reviews of actual users. It is always best to
get it straight from the horses' mouth, so to speak.
2. To read real reviews, find independent review sites that will give you an objective analysis of a particular product.
Use manufacturer's sites only to study the specifications of each vacuum cleaner.
3. Choose between bagless or bagged kind of vacuum cleaner. As the name implies, bagless cleaner uses a container
to hold dust and dirt, while the bagged kind uses well, a bag. Bagless is cheaper but the bagged kind is better for
people with allergies. The choice is up to the buyer.
4. Know what you need and where you will use the vacuum cleaner. The best hardwood floor vacuum is not
necessarily the most expensive one. Different vacuums have different attachments. You might not need some of the
nozzles especially if you only have a small space to clean.
5. If you need to clean several rooms, choose a light one so that you do not break your back carrying it around.
6. When choosing a vacuum cleaner, ask about its warranty. You will want to choose a brand that has service centers
near you.
7. Check also the availability of parts in your area. You may be the proud owner of a champion class vacuum cleaner,
but you may need to cross state lines just to have parts replaced. Vacuum cleaners are built to do the dirty job, pun
intended, and so make sure that you have the necessary support.
8. Keep your budget in mind. There is no need to rob a bank just so you can own the best hardwood floor vacuum. A
good research will make sure that you get the best cleaner in your budget range.
9. Get the cleaner with the best suction power. You will get the job done faster.
10. Finally, since you want to maintain or enhance the shine of your floor, you would do well to avoid a vacuum
cleaner that will scratch the floor.

final choice.
