You’re a real shortsighted person. Greetings from your northern cousins suffering from similar problems. Averages lie, statistics mean nothing to an average citizen.

If half a country does well, and the other half is living in worse conditions every day, is that wealth?

I’m in a good spot, but I am lucky to be there. Many others are not so lucky. Take off your blinders.

Same, only based on VTC do we get the returns. It’s not the best platform, but what are you going to do expansion wise else?

Haha, yes but you will never finish the job with a Philips vacuum. ;)

Hi, I am currently traveling so no link right now, but hopefully a pointer in the right direction.

Philips sucks (I have one too). My parents had one of the more powerful Bosch (corded) vacuums. Think marketed for pets. They worked very well with pets, long haired dogs. Lasted over 10 years I reckon.

The issue is usually that the motor is not powerful enough. Due to EU regulations the maximum watt is limited. Make sure to check the kilopascal suction power. If it’s not mentioned, it’s probably poor!

I have only 2 cats these days and we get by 95% with a good Robo rock vacuum though. Sometimes a bit with the corded for some impossible to reach corners.
