FYI, Reddit is not a microblog.
I’ll leave this one up since it’s pretty unique and humorous as far as reddit posts go.
Gotcha, sorry. I’ll hold off on posting reddit screenshots here.
They all just sitting there collecting dust
Nice pun!
I think that’s a double entendre.
A woman walks into a bar and asks the bartender for a double entendre.
So he gave it to her.
I really appreciate that these types of collectors of random appliances exist whenever I need to buy something and want to read real opinions written by people instead of the garbage sponsored recommendation list articles that seemed to pollute the search results (even before the LLMs appeared) that forced everyone to start appending ‘reddit’ to their Google queries.
Oh, boy, I hate the “Top 5 X of 2025!” articles in my search.
I just skip right over those
They all suck.
this collection really sucks.
I like the cat shaped one
I may or may not own 4 myself.
Every couple of years, my mom gets mad at her vacuum cleaner and buys a new one. I get the “if you can fix it, it’s all yours!” hand-me-downs and…all of them have worked just fine.
The only one I purchased myself was the shop vac
Used to snatch them off the side of the road in the 90s. Watch a movie while cleaning them up, new bag and a belt, $20 profit.
Smart!
So far only one has needed “repair”…in the way of ripping the dog hair out of the roller with a blade.
The number of vacuums I see thrown away at my condo complex that literally are just clogged…
We’re you not at the vacuum collector meet up featured in How to with John Wilson (s03e04)?
My exact thought when I saw this post.
Same, came to recommend the series. So many good clips!
I’d love to see a whole series dedicated entirely to finding these people who have dedicated their entire life to some esoteric craft.
Just trying to fill the vacuum in their life
Henry is so cute.
He has a theme song if you didn’t know.
I did not know.
But who’s collecting the collectors?
A&E’s Hoarders
This must be a thing. This is not the first time I’ve seen someone with a vacuum collection. There might even be a word for this.
He should put low batteries in each one, see if he can sync the beeps.
You’re thinking of smoke alarms
Best one is the Oreck on the right. Like choosing the correct holy grail 😂
Oreck, the Honda of commercial vacuums.
Honestly I never found them to perform better than other vacuums, just that they’re simply designed and easily maintained.
While Dyson is overpriced with cool (clear) but inferior materials (clear plastics tend to be more brittle than color), I’ve found they do work a lot better than most others. Just not $500 better than others.
So this is why Amazon really pushed vacuums to me after I bought one. I was like really Amazon I only need one stop please I don’t need 10 vacuums.
