How important is a piece of equipment? You wouldn’t ask that about a heart monitor if you were going in for major surgery, would you? Most people wouldn’t, so why do you think it’s no big deal to choose a cheap vacuum cleaner when you had new carpeting installed relatively recently?
It should always matter.
When you’re talking about a simple piece of equipment such as a residential vacuum cleaner that’s intended to be able to get your carpets as clean as possible, as well as the rest of the floors in your home, you either try to save as much money as you can and just choose one that is basic, lightweight, and won’t cause you a great deal of distress or you go with one that has a lot of power that may cost several hundred dollars.
Most people have a tendency to go somewhere in between. But why?
Why would someone who has invested thousands upon thousands of dollars in brand new carpeting and hundreds of thousands of dollars in their home, who honestly cares about the health and welfare of their family, including children, only choose a vacuum cleaner that is ‘middle of the road?’ They shouldn’t.
They may argue it’s about saving money. No one wants to throw money away and when you have a choice between a $200 vacuum cleaner and one that cost $500 or $600, you may not see the value in the much more expensive version.
You might have a tendency to claim you don’t have the extra money to spend on it, at least not right now. So, you choose the cheaper one and it seems to do the job okay. In fact, you’re happy with the results at first.
Then, something interesting happens.
As the months roll on, you begin to realize your carpets are not getting as clean as they could be, dust keeps flying through the air every time somebody walks through the room, and the vacuum doesn’t seem to be doing the job you remembered it doing in the beginning.
The suction power and ability to get deep within the carpet pile is important. You’re only going to get true power from a residential vacuum cleaner that will cost you more. It’s a better investment, but that still doesn’t mean you can ignore the importance and value of professional carpet cleaning services.
When you want cleanliness, choose the better vacuum cleaner, regardless of price. When cleanliness is still vital to you and your family, make sure you get a professional carpet cleaning service at least once a year if not more often.
