Vacuum cleaner

When buying a vacuum cleaner we have to take into account a number of factors to choose the most suitable to our needs.

The first thing you need to know when buying a vacuum cleaner is that type of vacuum cleaner need. In the market we find different models depending on our needs although there are characteristics common to all models.

Power

A higher yield more power. The power is expressed in watts (W) and is recommended to be more than 1,100 watts. But attention, we should not go wrong with power absorption, which are distinct characteristics.

The power absorption varies not only the engine power but also the design of each model; the power absorption is independent and less than engine power. The more power absorption will have more cleaning power, but if cleaned often need less power absorption if we do three times a month.
