Vaccume Bags

[sleetersoulfire]

My vaccume bag is full, I need to buy some to replace it. Are there different kinds of bags? Different sizes or whatever? And how would I go about removing one from my hoover without it breaking and spilling its ample contents all over the place?

I've looked inside the vaccume and it didn't seem obvious how I'd go about it.

Oh great. We don't have the packaging, the vaccume was one of the items of furniture which came with the house.

It was awesome too, very powerful suck, light weight, little buttong that retracted the power cable that worked (am I alone with my bad experiences of those?)

Now the ... bit ... that goes on the floor ... to do the vaccuming action is broken. I can only assume this is because one of my moronic house mates once more did what they do best. Think "Lo, it worketh not. More force is clearly needed." I mean, the tube is cracked where the ... carpet cleaning head meets the ... vaccume hose bit. How do you manage that?!?

So, if it's not obvious already, I lack most of the basic lexical items for accurately discussing vaccumes. ;)

No, what he means is, if you go and buy a pack of replacements bags, it will say "Suitable for use with Bambleweenie, Zoozlefrip and Jubrot hoovers." So make sure you know the brand and model of your hoover when you're in the shop buying the bags. That should be written on the hoover somewhere - probably in big shiny brand name lettering, but if not look somewhere near the power cable plug-in bit.

To put it in terms young people will understand, imagine you're going to the shop to buy a new cover for your phone. The packaging with the cover will say "Suitable with the Nokiemens T36i and the Motony TAZR." Is your phone one of those? Then you're in luck!

Ahhhh, I see, said the blind man, for the light was truly that bright... ;)

Sadly the only solution is to throw away the hoover and buy a new one. In my day we had proper changeable bags, but with this CONSUMERISM GONE INSANE we just have to make do :(

Damn it! Those greedy capitalists grind my gears! They're never satisfied. It's just never enough.

You mean you're not just moving house after dirtying the carpet?
