How To Pick A Vacuum Cleaner

Posted by John Gregory on Thu, Aug 11, 2011 @ 23:08 PM

Want to Make Sure You're Getting the Best Value?

Of course you do. Look - you'll be vacuuming your home for years to come. Shouldn't you get a vacuum that will last? Shouldn't you buy one that will save you money in the long run?

We think so. That's why we've assembled five tips for evaluating a vacuum purchase.

1. How Well Does it Clean?

All vacuums are not created equal. Does yours really get the dirt and dust out? Make sure to ask your salesperson just how well it gets the dirt out of your carpet, and the grunge off your floor.

2. How Easy is it to Use?

The vacuum you buy should be tailored to your needs. It should be easy to use for every task you need to accomplish.

For example, do you need to clean multiple types of surfaces? Or maybe you need to clean cobwebs off the ceiling? If so, make sure you get something flexible enough to adapt to every surface.

It's all about making sure a vacuum does what you need it to do.

3. How Long Will it Last?

You'll be vacuuming for years to come. Why throw away your money on a vacuum you'll have to replace in 18 months? Shouldn't you have a vacuum that's covered by a great warranty? One that will clean well for years?

Make sure to ask your salesperson how well a vacuum will be cleaning in a few years. If he's not sure, maybe you're not shopping at the right place.

Ask about the warranty, too. Is one available? Does the vacuum need to be shipped somewhere just to get repaired?

If so, maybe you should reconsider your purchase. We offer a great warranty on all of our products. We keep every part you can think of right here on hand, and we service all of our vacuums on the premises. That means you have less downtime and less cost. We'll even loan you one of our own vacuums until we have yours repaired and working like new!

Try to get that kind of service from a department store.

4. Does it Make The Air in Your Home Cleaner or Dirtier?

Air quality is a major health concern, especially in homes with children or senior citizens. And your vacuum could be contributing to the problem.

Make sure to ask your salesperson - "Does the dirt stay in the machine?" Listen for an answer that includes HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Arrest) filters. These filters must pass a test that certifies them to remove 99.97% of potentially hazardous particles from the air. Without HEPA filters, you can't be sure how much dust your vacuum is just blowing back out into the air you breathe.

If your salesperson doesn't talk about HEPA filters, maybe you should get a second opinion.

5. Where Should You Purchase It?

No vacuum is indestructible. Make sure to buy yours from a shop that can service it and supply it with the parts you need, even years down th

That's the kind of service that we're proud to provide. We have our own experienced repair staff who will work on your vacuum right in our service department. We make sure they have all the parts and tools they need to get the job done right and in a timely manner.

We make sure to keep replacement parts for years down the line. All to make certain that no matter how long ago you bought your vacuum, we can make it run like new.

You won't get that from a "big box" store. That's the kind of service you'll only get from a dedicated local vacuum shop.

Whos the BEST Carpet Cleaning Company in Albany NY

Posted by John Gregory on Thu, Jul 21, 2011 @ 14:07 PM

"John,
    We have really enjoyed the excellent service we have received from capital vacuum. When we had capital vacuum in to have our carpet cleaned because one of our Labs urinated on the carpet they did an awesome job and used an extreme amount of care of ensuring the spots, yes spots, your cleaner found a few additional spots, which is awesome and greatly appreciated,  were cleaned and deodorized. The amount of time and care that was taken was great. We have had our carpets cleaned at our old home and the company we used didn't take even half the time to do 4 rooms as you did to do 1 room.

    We then had a couch that needed cleaning after 3 years of 2 very large labs and 2 cats enjoying their afternoon naps on it. Your cleaner was on time and really great. Was talkative with my 2 year old son who was very interested in what was going on and he spent over 1.5 hrs cleaning it and did an absolutely amazing job. We will definitely be using capital vacuums again. I would also recommend capital vacuum to anyone looking for your services.Thank you." - John and Christina C Carpet Cleaning Upholstery Cleaning Customers Schenectady NY

Carpet Cleaning Testimonial

Posted by John Gregory on Fri, Jul 1, 2011 @ 16:07 PM

 

"I received your thank you card and thought I'd take you up on your offer to let you know what I thought of the service I received.  
In any event, Mike had been sent in to clean our rugs and he arrived right on time.  Wicked nice guy, great attitude, sociable and friendly.  It was a pleasure having him, honestly. 
He did an awesome job - everything we had asked.  All the rugs looked fabulous when he was done.  
I have nothing negative to say.  It was really a great experience all the way around.  I'd had you guys come in prior to this visit to do some work for us, and that, too, was another great experience.  
I'm sold.  You guys are fantastic.  I'll definitely call you for future stuff and will most definitely refer friends to you! 
Thanks so much, John!"

Carpet Cleaning Albany NY

"As suggested I am writing to thank you for cleaning my carpets. 
 
Your rep was very knowledgeable, friendly, and did an excellent job.
 
I had "fostered" 2 puppies (for two weeks) who were potty trained...so you can imagine what happened.
 
It feels good to walk in the house and not smell urine. 
 
And yes, I would recommend you to my friends and neighbors."

How to pick a carpet cleaning company

Posted by John Gregory on Tue, Jun 28, 2011 @ 23:06 PM

carpet cleaning albany nyIt's time to think about getting your home cleaned (your HOME - not just a house). You need the Carpets Cleaned, The upholstery Cleaned, The tile and grout cleaned.  There are a lot of cleaning companies available.  How do you choose the right one?  Are you just looking for the best price? Or do you want the best quality job at a fair price? In other words, the best value.  This is, after all, your home. It's important to you. It's not just the cleaning of the tile and grout and carpets. It's the whole experience that matters.

Look for a company that cares.  Try to find a company that can provide testimonials.

The following testimonials might be a good indication that the company cares:

"I was amazed at how the floors turned out.  I had been scrubbing them with bleach and a scrub brush on my hands and knees trying to make our grout and tile floor look good, but by the time I got from one side of the floor to the other, the area I started out would already be dirty.Your cleaning service made it look even better than I could make it with my scrubbing, and it stays clean longer and is easier to clean when I need to. I marvel

at how much nicer it looks every time I walk in, and how easy it is to keep beautiful.
Your team was great; professional, courteous and fast.
Overall a great experience." - Roberta Capital Vacuums Tile & Grout Cleaning Customer Rensselaer NY

"I appreciate your response time. David was very kind, efficient and did a great job!" - Kathy Capital Vacuums Carpet Cleaning Customer Albany NY

"Great products, great service and great employees. Everyone I have interacted with has been helpful, friendly and pleasant to work with. I recently had my carpets cleaned. The man who did the work was wonderful. He was friendly, professional and thorough. He worked hard to remove stubborn stains. He agreed my request to clean a couch even though it wasn't part of the original order. I would (and have) recommend Capital Vacuums to everyone." - Roxanne Capital Vacuums Carpet Cleaning Upholstery Cleaning Customer East Greenbush NY

Another Review For the Worlds Coolest Vacuum - SEBO Felix

Posted by John Gregory on Thu, Jun 16, 2011 @ 17:06 PM

"Hey John,
Thanks for all your help in selecting my first vacuum.  Up until now I happily accepted any hand-me-down vacuum from my brothers, sisters and parents, however with the purchase of my new Home I hope. I thought it fitting to pick out a machine of my own.  I noticed a difference immediately, especially as my old vacuum didn't actually clean anything.  You and your employees did an excellent job showing me my options and offering your own advise based on obvious expertise.  The Sebo will surely see it's share of action with the addition of a cat to the house.  I would definitely recommend your shop to friends and look forward to shop with you in the future.  Not too soon however, as I don't foresee a problem with the Sebo for some time to come!
Thanks again,"

Carpet Cleaning Review

Posted by John Gregory on Wed, Jun 15, 2011 @ 21:06 PM

 

 
Just a little note to give you some feed back on the experience we had when our couch was cleaned by "Capital Vacuums".
  
  • My favorite; how quickly someone returned my call and how quickly an appointment was scheduled that worked into  our schedule
  • the promptness of the worker who arrived to our home at the time discussed.  No wondering or waiting when someone was going to actually arrive
  • WE LOVE OUR "new" COUCH!  Well it looks like new because it's now so clean.  We are very, very pleased with the results
  • We loved the fact that we were asked to purchased scotch guard to protect our couch.  Great idea was thoroughly explained and we defiantly took advantage
  • We are more likely to us this service again and WILL recommend Capital Vacuums to our friends and family
  • If we had to chose something we did not like about the service, that would be the fact that not all the stains came out.  The technician tried but did share that those stains were too old and tough to remove.  I guess we should have called for our cleaning sooner.

Thanks, " - Gloria and Dave H. Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning Schenectady, NY
