    Reddit has great information on vacuum’s. The community has curated lists ranging in prices, and education surrounding the subject. According to them, you don’t want to go bagless.

    I have an earlier version of this (got it on sale from Costco, and it was the highest-rated model by Consumer Reports at the time); I love it. It’s not great for carpets, but it’s fast and easy for hardwood floors.

    Would I have bought it if it needed to connect to my cell phone? Absofuckinglutely not. Not in a million fucking years. It could have been the best goddamn vacuum in the world at sucking, powered by a miniature black hole, sucking dirt to the event horizon, and I still would have passed.

    I need LESS connectivity in my life, not more.

    Even better:

    Even better, if you’re doing the wash and left your phone in the other room, Samsung’s added touchscreens to its washers and dryers, including the new Bespoke AI Laundry Vented Combo washer / dryer ($3,099). This lets you answer a call directly on the built-in 7-inch LCD screen.

    You can take calls with your clothes dryer!

      “Hello?”

      “Hey Dave…wait what’s that noise?”

      “Oh that’s my washer and dryer going.”

      “Can you move to the other room? I can’t hear you very well.”

      “No, the call is on my washer.”

      “WHAT?”

      There is no world in which the barely marginal convenience outweighs the additional cost (and near certain privacy invasion of a microphone equipped dryer).

        not to mention, why would you even want to start a conversation that could run on indefinitely and keep you hostage in your laundry room. nothing about this makes sense if you think about it for 5 seconds.

      I have taken calls while loading my dryer, and it’s fucking stupid to not wait. I took advantage of advanced technology called a “pocket” to carry my “mobile” device

    Pass. Let me know when it has AI and can plagiarize an essay for me, that’s what I actually use my vacuum cleaner for.

    That’s nothing! My reusable digital toilette paper let’s me zoom and teams into important work meetings. It even includes a 3D digital camera and digital texturizer so you can feel the other side.
