Kenmore Progressive Glide 30100 upright

If my vacuum can remove even one spec of dirt that yours misses, then mine is better than yours - even if there's no proof that mine would have picked up as much dirt as yours...

It looks like Sears has a new Kenmore stick vac with power nozzle. Price is $199.99 currently.

Product Description from website:

The Kenmore Progressive Glide upright vacuum cleaner combines heavy-duty cleaning and lightweight maneuverability into a single stylish upright.

Ultra lightweight - 12.9 lbs - makes the Glide effortless to use, carry, and put away

Swivel+ steering system makes it easy to avoid obstacles and furniture

Electronic Dirt Sensor alerts you to the dirt that you can't see

Foot-activated Height Adjust sets the vacuum at the perfect height to clean your carpet

Fingertip Control allows you to clean multiple surfaces with the touch of a finger

Optimum Carpet and Bare Floor cleaning delivered by a 2 motor system

Vacuum contains recyclable plastic, uses 100% recyclable packaging, and uses 17% less energy than a 12 amp vacuum

(Let's see 17% less than a 12 amp vacuum - 0.83*12= 10 amps motor.)

The smart tyrant writes his own story to ensure that it is favorable. The lazy will repeat lines from the book without fact checking.

The message in the buyer's review is that for $200 a vacuum, in the current economy and times, stick or not, has to have more capabilities than this SEARS Glide. Interesting perspective.

Well, here's to those who dare to dream -- customers and dmanufacturers. Shoppers want something for their money even though in the today's balance a couple hundred bucks is considered nothing -- except to those who have to sweat some to get it. Product makers appear to be looking for a lot for even the least of their efforts.

This is why I hope people will start toughening up and learn to play hard ball with producers of frivolous product especially in hard times. There needs to come enough public knowledge re how things are made, where they are made, what it costs to make them and so on to allow for a consensus among consumer regarding fair prices.
