    That's what I've got. 12 years old and still looks like new.

      It sounds like Morclean would be mid-way between a bog-standard el cheapo vacuum cleaner and a Kirby.

      I lashed out a monkey on a Morclean Numatic MFQ472 about ten years ago, which is supposed to filter 99% of dust and is apparently used in hospitals, and it is still going strong.

      edit: Just checked, and a Numatic MFQ 472 filters 99.995% of dust. So I would imagine it is suitable for asthmatics, provided the bags and filters are properly maintained.

        My Dyson is 10 years old, you've wasted your money.
        Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

          It's a Dyson for me too. We bought one after using a Vax for years and the amount of rubbish it shifted was embarrassing.

            I have some species of vacuum cleaner in a cupboard but the cleaner brings her own and does a sterling job.
