Love how easy it is to clean brush
Love all the features but that easy clean roller .. wow!! Would be so great to help deal with thread and pet hair!🤞🤞. PS I think I heard you say there was a vacuum cleaner museum I’m going to have to investigate !
Hi Pat
This looks like just what I’ve been looking for!
USA made and the easy brush removal!!!!! Thank you Riccar for a chance to win one!!!
I love that this vacuum has 2 filters and is easy to clean!
I would love to have a new Office Assistant, that vacuum looks awesome!
I love that it works well since mine has missing pieces and needs to be replaced! HEPA filter another huge plus.
Looks like an amazing vacuum! I’m liking the double filter.
My favorite feature was that you can remove the roller easily and clean the threads and hair out so easily. The roller also just also slides back in with ease. This alone is a major game changer. I also feel that have the stand is a major help. Other stick vacuums are always falling over because they are top heavy so they break easily.
*Riccar Vacuum
It has so many good features but the one I like best is beig able to take the roller out for cleaning.
Hi Pat Sloan, I like the stand on the Richard Vacuum Cleaner! It looks like an assistant AI robot at first and then how it is a stick style that looks sew easy to operate! I’m reorganizing and changing my quilt room to the master bedroom after my husband passed away 5 months ago. I’ll have sew much room and plenty of room for that AI vacuum machine if I’m so blessed;)
I love that the stand corrals all the attachments, but I also would like to try the stick style vacuum, as I have a canister style.
I like the idea of a lighter weight vacuum. I am getting older and to be able to continue to clean my own home, a lighter weight vacuum would help facilitate my needs. This one does so much, all in one unit.
I love the roller and how easy it would be to clean!
The roller removal would be a game changer!
I love the 2 Hepa filters and that it lies flat while vacuuming making it easier to go under my cutting table as well as other furniture in my house. Thank you for this opportunity.
All of the features are wonderful. I like the cordless and that it will be easy to take up the stairs to my second floor sewing room.
Love that the roller thing comes out easily to clean. And i also love that it has a stand that holds the extra brushes. And truthfully I am a weirdo that LOVES to vacuum.
Love your videos Pat even when you are not giving things away.
Hugs.
I like the heavy duty stand that the vacuum cleaner has. It doesn’t take up much space in a closet. I also like the low profile so it will reach under furniture you need to clean!
I like the size and also how you showed how it swivels and can be laid flat to fit under things.
Oh yes I remember the lil jelly jars repurposed as juice glasses!
I love a good vacuum and wasn’t familiar with Riccar. The removable brush head is great!
To me, the stand and the lights are a game changer. I own a stick vacuum that doesn’t have either of these things and I would Love the addition.
I was impressed with how to remove the brush to clean. I always to remove the one on my vacuum with a screw driver.
I like this stick vacuum a lot, that there are 4 attachments and they are conveniently stored on the unit that holds the vacuum, and then headlight on the stick! These additions make for a very useful vacuum. Thank you for sharing.
WOW! What a vacuum cleaner. I suffer from terrible allergies so I like the hepa filter, the way it lays flat to get under furniture & the easy to clean roller brushes. Actually what’s not to like about the Riccar vacuum cleaner.
I love the fact that the roller can be taken out easily and cleaned! My big vacuum it is super hard to clean that roller. I would love to have this very versatile vacuum.
Now that’s a vacuum! I really like that the Riccar is on a stand, and I especially love the fact the roller is so easy to clean out since, as you said, those threads just muck it up! Thanks, Pat, for showing us this amazing vacuum!
The design element I like best would be the easy removal of the roller
Vacuum feature I liked best is the detachable roller to remove lint, threads, etc collected when vacuuming—game changer!
Hi Pat! The vacuum company’s video was impressive, agree. The removable roller head for cleaning is a game changer for sure- wow. There is a dusty-looking rainbow of threads wrapped around my vacuum roller right now, & it’s just not working as well as it used to.
This looks like it would be easier to easier to use in the small space I have for my sewing room. Of course, I love being able to remove the bar for cleaning out threads and hair.
I absolutely love that the brush can be removed!!! Genius!!! I hate trying to untangle all the threads that get wound around my vac brush. If I won, the Riccar vac would be dedicated to my sewing room and in turn, it will relieve much frustration.
The ease of cleaning threads from the beater bar…awesome feature
The ability to clean the roller easily is my favorite feature.
I like that the brush comes out for easy cleaning.
It is an light weight office assistant that anyone would be lucky to have. And as a quilter it is even better because it has a detachable bar so you can clean it without using chopsticks and tweezers. It even has a stand to hold it when not in use. So nice.
I could use a new vaccuum for my sewing room so I dont have to lug the current one up and down stairs.
ALL the features are pretty awesome, but the power with the cordless is best.
I love the light on the vacumn and I need it to see all the threads. Also the hepa filter ♥️.
So nice.
I love that the beater bar is removable to clean. And the nice slim stick design. Works great for small spaces!
I like the compact design, so my new sewing buddy would not take up too much room, but the ultimate game changer was the ability to pull out the roller to get all those pesky threads.
Being able to get to those pesky threads on the roller is a game changer along with no cord wrapping around everything in my sewing space!
Hi pat, I love that the roller comes out easily to clean that’s my number one issue with vacuums I have long hair and I have two Shelties and a cat and it’s always hair hair thread hair hair thread and I have to take a sharp blade to cut it out so thanks for showing that and giving us the opportunity to enter and win you’re the best love Lori
In addition to the roller being easy to cleat, I like that it lays flat so you can get underneath things easily.
I love that it is cordless and the head rotates so I can get under my tables and fabric racks. Most vacuums are not flat enough !
I love the sturdy base. I love that it holds the attachments. The light is also a definite plus!
I would love an office assistant that can stand on their own.
I like the feature of the roller coming out easily to remove all the threads wrapped around it.
I love everything about it. Threads and dog hair, oh yeah. Really like the three speeds for pickup!
I liked the lights on the head of the vacuum and then being able to remove the brush to clean it. I have a 25 yr old sears and it has done a good job but it’s time for a new one. Being older and not as strong as I was I hope it isn’t a heavy unit to pick up
