Smoking a De Paja, Capt black gold, Mug of DD coffee. I`m done with the alarm clocks for today. My wife informed me yesterday, that we need a new vacuum cleaner and was throwing away the 2 year old Shark vac. I know our vacuum cleaners are heavily used with 3 large dogs. but,2 years?
I hauled the vacuum to the workshop,it seems like the belt is stretched out,Easy ? Right?
I go to the vac repair store with the model #, The guy I know behind the counter told me shark does not make parts for their vac`s. He said I might get an aftermarket on amazon ,but the quality is not great. He told me Shark makes it almost impossible to repair their vacs. I was surprised,but This is his business-He never tried to sell me anything,I came home and looked at the vac. Trying to get it apart requires torx security screw drivers? it`s a damn vacuum cleaner! then their are plastic clips that seem to be epoxyed in place. So they have to be melted off? I guess thats why he said just chuck it and buy something different at walmart.
I guess shark just wants you to buy a new vac every other year and fill up the landfills at our expense!
