The Vacuum Cleaner

David Oreck formed the Oreck Corporation in 1963, with the lofty goal of breaking into the strong commercial vacuum market with an Oreck Vacuum Cleaner that would be lighter in weight without sacrificing power. His initial target market was hotel housekeepers - a marketing strategy that proved so successful that he was soon flooded with requests from hotel personnel who wanted to buy Oreck Vacuums for their homes. Oreck knew that he had something even bigger than he imagined, and soon began marketing and selling Oreck Vacuum Cleaners to consumers for household use. To this day, the Oreck vacuum is one of the leading models in both the commercial and home markets.

The reputation of Oreck Vacuum Cleaners has been built upon their lightweight maneuverability, and powerful suction capabilities. Consumers love the fact that the Oreck Vacuum can be used for any suction job, and they equally appreciate the ease with which replacement parts and attachments can be obtained through Oreck's online suppliers and retailers. Many vacuum cleaner manufacturers miss out on this crucial parts component, but consumers do appreciate being able to repair their vacuums and other household appliances without spending a fortune on specialists and hard-to-get parts.

Oreck Vacuums include a large number of canister models, with nearly silent motors and powerful suction. In addition, these models can be fitted with HEPA filters to trap almost all allergens found on the floor and in the air. With models designed for carpet and hard floors, Oreck Vacuum Cleaners are available for all your floor care needs. The Oreck Floor Sweeper, for example, will sand, strip, wax and clean any hard surface floor - from hardwood to tiles. Oreck is also unique in its offer to allow every consumer to try an Oreck Vacuum Cleaner for 30-days, with your money returned if you are not completely satisfied. It is not often that you find any company that committed to proving the excellence of their product line.

There are a few negatives to mention as well. Some consumers complain that a few of the Oreck Vacuum models contain attachments that are difficult to attach or store. Others complain that the Oreck Vacuum Cleaner has become so focused on its weight that it has lost some of its durability. Of course, still others feel that the price of an Oreck Vacuum is simply too high - but as with most things in life, you get what you pay for. The bottom line, however, is that the advantages to owning an Oreck Vacuum far outweigh the disadvantages - at least in the minds of most consumers.

One thing is for sure: at least with the Oreck, you don't have to wonder whether it is the right vacuum for your household needs. Thanks to their innovative free trial offer, you never have to regret not trying one for yourself. After all, if you try the Oreck and find it not to your liking, you've lost nothing. The Oreck Corporation will be more than happy to take the machine back and refund your money without argument or questions. When was the last time a company offered you a trial like that?
