Water 'filter' vacuum cleaner

    Does anyone have a vacuum cleaner that uses water as its filtering system? I came across it recently in a friend's house and was intrigued by it. Instead of paper filters to catch the dust, the air is drawn through water which can be then discarded after the clean.

    I don't want to mention the name and it's BIG money but would love to hear from anyone and what they think of it.

    If it is the one I am thinking of yes they are expensive.
    you need to remember to empty the water bowl when you are finished.
    It is a good solid machine.
    I takes a bit more space than your standard compact hoover.
    We had one for about 6 years with no problems.
    just got fed up of having to wind the lead and our press just wasn't big enough.

    We had one of the extre tools in its box all the time as we never used it.

    The big attraction for me is the fact that all of the dust that comes out the back of a standard vacuum cleaner gets caught in the water. The price is a bit dirty though!

    Ours worked fine with no problems over the years.
    It was a solid piece of machinery.
    Size was our downfall.
    It was still working fine when we got rid of it.


    The water collect bowl needs to be emptied when finished for the day.
    Its important not to leave it sitting there, believe me.
