I love them. And I will try to keep getting them.
If the problem is that people equate cleaning power with Watts, they should mandate some measurement of cleaning factor instead of maximum power.
Then people can determine if they want the 2100 W vacuum cleaner, or the 1600 one with the same cleaning factor.
I see what happens at other peoples houses. They have their eco vacuum and the cat hair just stays on the floor if you don't pas over it 10 times.
It's the same thing with all their washing machines.
In the US washing my clothes takes about 1 hour for washing and 40 minutes for drying.
In the EU with all their eco washing machines it takes 2 and half hours for washing clothes (one and a half for quick) and 80 minutes to dry it.
Is it more eco-friendly? I'm sure it is. But in return I have to actually plan out when I'm going to wash my clothes because it takes twice as long.
Maybe I just have a bad washing machine, but all the ones I've used here are like this.
