Staying Clean
We're just getting into RV life in a Class A with plans to be full-time in 5-7 years (depends on how long the teens take to be on their own once they graduate HS!). I am looking for some good suggesti...

When I went full time I bought a bunch of different vacuums. All where junk and didn't pick up anything.
What I found out is the most important feature on a vacuum is how many AMPS it has.
AND half of the more popular ones do NOT put the amps on the outside of the packaging for you to see. Because they do NOT want you to know that a smaller less expensive vac will actually have more amps i.e. 'more power'. The only way you find out is 'after' you buy it and open the box.
I got so ticked off I went to Walmart. Got the store manager and told him I was going to open the box of a vac right on the floor in the store to see home many amps a vacuum had. Seeing as I would be returning it anyway if the amps were too low.
You would be shocked just how low of amps these big popular vacuum cleaners have. There is one that has the exact same low amps as one of those cheapo stick vacs!
Out of all the vacuums in two aisles of Walmart. The Eureka canister model had the highest amp rating. Sucks up dirt, dog hair and Florida sugar sand like crazy.:
Soo check the amps before you buy! :W
