On a fixed income now with joint problems and I've heard many positive comments about this vacuum, plus it is so light-weight. I'll keep my fingers crossed!

I am truly amazed as I read some of these comments. Be aware that the latex-backed/wool carpets that sold by PB are heretofore mentioned, do emitt dangerous toxins and this is called Off-Gassing. Just think of these carpets going into baby/childrens rooms. Let this sink-in! Of Course you can get your money back and if you have a problem do what you have to do to get every penny (plus tax)! As consumers,
this is yet just another example of inferior, dangerous, sub-standard crap we have to deal with.....and as consumers, we had better get more involved and NOT find it acceptable, and fight back! Get these carpets tested, get a good lawyer, and DO NOT pass these Toxic PB rugs, or any other known rug that emits this strong odor (Off-Gassing) to some other unsupecting individual that would then expose toxins into their home, make their children sick. If you want to try and cut your losses, take the time, do the research, and either resolved the matter with the retailer, take it to small claims court, or hire a good lawyer and take the issue to court and sue! If you have one of these rugs then for heaven-sake!! get the thing out of your house NOW! You don't have to be rocket-scientist to understand this smell you are smelling is off-gassing toxins which can make you ill. Over-time in this environment, you are putting yourself at further risk for varied health problems. God Bless our babies and children who have been exposed to these toxins. Many companies are selling these carpets knowing full-well of the health risks, dealing allot in coutries, especially India, where inferior glues and other products are used just so these companies can make more money/profit as they laugh all the way to the bank. Do they care about getting Richer? Do they care if you or your babies/children are getting Sicker??
Do you care enough to do something about this...DO YOU??
Do Something.....at least report it.....
