I like to do some small market studies from time to time. One of them was done in my latest giveaway. I wanted to test how people feel about the importance of several vacuum cleaner features, such as brand, suction power, filters, capacity, price, warranty and so on. People had to sort these options in the order of their importance. What was left for me was to inspect these results and put them into a logical context. But why going through all this trouble?

Adding to the … [Read more...]

Here are some of the most common questions asked by the visitors of this blog: How does a vacuum cleaner work? Before you can understand how an everyday vacuum cleaner works, it’s important to learn a few basic concepts. There is a reason why vacuum cleaners have the word 'vacuum' in them.

Now what the hell is that, one may rightfully ask? According to Collins, iRobot is planning to draft a deal with Amazon, Apple, or Google to share for free the mapped information. This data will likely give … [Read more...]

During last couple of weeks, I think hundreds of people asked me about the differences between the latest Shark Rotator models. They are called the Powered Lift-Away series, and because there are around 15 different models, people tend to get confused. Thus I've spent my weekend building a chart which contains all there is to know about the following models: NV650, NV650W, NV651, NV652, NV680, NV681, NV682, NV683, NV750W, NV751, NV752, NV753, NV755, NV760 and UV795. The NV650W and the NV652 were basically upgraded to the NV750W and respectively NV752 due to some minor wand problems. Here's the chart: What you need to know is that all … [Read more...]

It could take a few decades to radically change consumers’ most used appliances, but some ideas are already here.
