I couldn’t live without my bagless vacuum. I think that my favorite thing about it is that I don’t have to purchase bags on a constant basis. I simply empty the dirt from the floors and rinse the container when I’m done vacuuming for the day. This means that there aren’t a lot of germs sitting around in my vacuum like you can get inside of bags. It takes a while for a bag to fill and bacteria and other germs can build up inside of it. Those then get thrown back in your carpet. But with the bagless you can just empty when done. Rinse it out regularly and you can reduce germs.
