I just bought an upright Riccar upright vacuum cleaner - the Radiance - and will be the best vacuum I've ever had. It was an expensive purchase although i think it's worth every penny and therefore i can't fault it. However, I recently met somebody bought a Riccar upright vacuum many years back as well as they told me about the problems they had after using it on damp carpet. Do you walk straight back over? In an effort to make what need to saw? Him or her looks appreciate it has made its act...
