I used Electrolux all my life until mine finally died. I bought one refurbished in 1985 and it lasted 20 years. But they're incredibly expensive.
I'm using hand-me-down vacs from my ex's parents, specifically a Panasonic upright. I really hate it. The bags are very difficult to attach and you can actually see dust coming out of the machine, back into the air, as you go.
When I finally buy a new vac, it will be upright and light, have lots of attachments, include a really great air filtration system so that it actually cleans the filters the air flowing through it, instead of coughing dust back up and, preferably, bagless. Oh, and it will be on sale. This ain't happening any time soon. I might have to resort to sweeping my carpet in the meantime!
