Scott,

I looked long and hard at commercial vacuums. And I've used quite a few different models through the years too. For commercial loop carpets that we service - I wanted to find a vacuum that has the ability to dig deep into the tight pile. I decided to go with the Hoover Conquest in our cleaning business, because it really has a great brush roller and enough weight to accommodate moving the pile. It also has GREAT airflow too. Since this vac has worked so well in our cleaning business, I've also added them to our store. Here's a description of the Conquest...

Vac next day? Not me. I apply it, and I am done.

Now, one exception is a couple of loose rugs I had in for cleaning that I encapped. 5 x 7's nylon. I started with a new bag next day. I was unable to tell whether I had anything in it or not, the amount I got out was very small. Mostly nylon lint.
