Quiet upright required for Mother-in-law

Postby NoDad » Tue Jan 01, 2008 9:49 pm

Well, can't believe I've just joined a vacuum cleaner forum. I know how good forums are from experience on other forums, because they are frequented by people who know - the users.

So, I'm looking for the help of you good people.

My 76 year old Mother-in-law has problems with her ears/balance. Loud noises make her feel dizzy and quite ill. I'm looking for an upright vacuum cleaner for her, which is "quiet". Ideally it will be a bagless unit, but that is not essential.

Thanks in advance. :wink:

Hi

Probably about the best range I know of for noise levels is the Sebo range http://www.sebo.co.uk/Pages/uprights.html . Quiet to at 66db, good German engineering, highly rated by Which and come with a full 5 year parts and labour warranty. Beats a Dyson anyday :wink:

Thanks Don for the quick response. Looks interesting. Presumably the bags are readily available. The one with variable power will probably be the quietest. I'll have a closer look.

Hi

Replacement bags should be available from any good electrical retailer. If not then a mail to the http://shop.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/e shop here should do the trick.
