Now that I am getting real close to the mid century mark the big 50! and being in the vacuum industry for over have of those years got me reminiscing of how the vacuum industry has change in those 28 years. Ok the first few years were a blur as my first job in the vacuum industry was a warehouse job unloading vacuum cleaners and supplies from large Semi Truck and stocking the parts to customer service for over hundreds of vacuum dealers from the west coast and now owing my own retail store for the last nine years.
One of the big change is the quality of the vacuum that we grew up with. A lot of the quality brands that were owned and made here in the USA are now owned and made in china and other Asian countries. Companies like Hoover, Dirt devil, Royal are now owned by a large Chinese Company TTI . ITS not that China can make quality products its the Chanel they the manufacturer’s use to sell their product The trend has been leaning toward a throw away society nurtured by by the big discount box stores competing for the lowest prices and as the price get lower ever year so goes the quality of vacuum that you will find at those big box store. So when looking at vacuums and you spot that brand that mother or maybe your grand mother might of owned its probably the same in name only ..
Another Trend that I see these day is in the change of the Quality of the local Vacuum Shop and their Owners, I remember in my early days in the vacuum industry that alot of Vacuum shops were consider vacuum repair shops and were a little dirty where today most Vacuum retail stores are clean and and sell quality vacuum but where you still get your old vacuum fixed. Todays most quality made Vacuum manufacturer’s will not sell their vacuum though discount big box stores, and can only be found though thier dealer network of small Independent vacuuum shops
