This channel is literally my Better Business Bureau for buying products. If this guy has tested it, I live and die by what his results are.

I found my Dyson Ball Animal vacuum in a gargabe bin. Took it home, cleaned and unclogged it, washed the filters, and it works great. The stuff people throw away.

Seriously, NOBODY does reviews like this. It's not just a review, it's pure unbiased testing.

[ToyotaCelicaDude]

Never let anyone buy you out dude, you are the BEST product reviewer on YouTube. I trust your reviews from car oil to vacuums. If you haven't already made a company out of what you're doing, I have a feeling you would find much success! You are the boss employees are looking for! You're the trustworthy alternative to consumer reports 🙏

[MagicPants]

Perfect timing. Wife is asking for a new one.

[DontKnowHowToTypeIn]

The first comparison where it's better if one thing sucks more than the other 😂

Been watching you a few years now, my brother is an engineer and also really uses your videos to help choose good products. That's awesome that you replied to me and I always appreciate the work you put into these videos. Your an awesome guy and I will be here for years to come!! I also recommend you all the time :) AD Air Force here btw. God speed and never lose your honestly and way you make these videos. Puts serious pressure on companies to be better.

They Dyson Animal Ball just went on sale at Costco for $279. I watched this review before I went out and got it. Thanks for the thorough comparisons!

[dirtfarmer]

1 thing that I always like is how you figure out how to test the products, that’s as interesting as the results sometimes.
Thank you Sir for your efforts, I do appreciate it

I purchased a Dyson back in 2000 and it still runs top notch today, 24 years later, with a single replacement of brush, foot to tank connector tubing and rubber belt. Excellent testing regimen!

I remember asking for a vacuum video on a previous video. This helped a lot! Was able to get my Mom that nice Shark Stratos vacuum for her birthday today. Thank you!

Had a Dyson for 8 years, ex wife left me and our son. I switched to a Kirby Avalir. First time vacuuming filled 2 bags each weighing approx 14 pounds. Home was significantly cleaner and dust was reduced. Ladies generally don't like the weight of a Kirby, but wowza, what a great machine.

[jesmcdevlin]

Fun fact; vacuums can be much quieter but users perceive louder vacuums as more powerful. This is one example of engineered inefficiency for consumer preference.
IE: Monkey brain like loud noises. Pick loudest vacuum!
Thanks as always Project Farm!!! :) Keep up the fantastic work on behalf of us consumers!

As a former vacuum mechanic, repairability also should be considered along with ease of maintenance.

[TheNuma]

Our vacuum just died.
first thing I did was head over to project farm, to see if you had something on vacuums… you are the best !
Thank you for everything you do for us !

We have a rainbow vacuum that costed a fortune. It doubles as an air purifier. It uses a removable and washable water bowl as a dust collector. That makes it really good at not generating dust storms, although a lot of the bagless vacuums in the video seem to do fine in that regard. It seems to do a really good job at collecting hair in carpet, but it really seems to struggle on hard surfaces. I’m happy with it, but I’m always doubting that it was worth the ridiculous price. I don’t want to say we got swindled because it does seem to do a great job, but we took on this thing kind of at the recommendation of a family friend who we aren’t friendly with anymore, with the idea to start trying to sell the things but that never came about. It seems like a fairly uncommon brand but everything I can find online suggests that people really like it. I can definitely say it performs better than our old vacuum, but I wish I could see how it would perform in a real test like yours.

My wife and I found a Shark stratos at goodwill for $50. Almost brand new condition with all the attachments. One of the best deals I’ve ever found. Great video as always!

[zeophen]

I purchased the Shark Stratos nearly a year ago after watching/reading dozens of similar comparison videos and consumer reports. I have no complaints with it. It does its work well, all of the maintenance tasks are quick and easy, The deodorizer on the lowest setting is a pleasant feature, its ability to pop off the base makes things like vacuuming ceiling fans and the tops of cupboards less clumsy.
I'm glad people love their Dysons, but I figured I'd mention that the Stratos is a fantastic machine that I'm very glad I invested in.

[jivepatrol]

I bought a Shark Stratos right from the company late last year and it is amazing! I additionally received all the attachments and a floor steamer too from company promotions. The Shark has great suction, is easy to empty, does a good job of air filtration and is light and maneuverable. It certainly is the best vacuum I have ever owned. Thank you for the good test program.

You think of everything on testing. Don’t stop. You are my guide in all I buy!
