I've been speaking to folks here and there and lot of them have a hard time wrapping their heads around the idea of three-, four- or five-hundred dollars for a vacuum cleaner. LG's advantage is the offering of two somewhat less expensive bagless uprights with potentially useful features and longer than usual warranties for non-niche vac brands. Bagless vacs are now of growing interest to shoppers. Though I am not a fan of Dyson, it has the obvious advantage of longer, larger press and market exposure and certainly way more word of mouth. LG is a new kid on the block when it comes to vacuums in the U.S. One more question: Comparing LG Kompressor to dyson DC28 and what do you think? A run for the money? Recapping: Bagless with 1/3 less bin dumps, washable cyclones and filters, user friendly belt and brush roll service. That's why I see LG's six screws with ordinary heads easy to deal with. A 'special' screwdriver is needed that most of us don't know where to locate or buy. You can't just go to your kitchen drawer and pull out a screwdriver for slotted or Phillips head screws. I had often bragged that I could knock down and reassemble any vacuum made since 1952 but the thought in regard to my S7 sets me shaking in my shoes. (Also, i have a sneaking suspicion they don't want end-users being too self-sufficient.) Yet, I suspect that such convenience is considered too costly to provide by current makers. Belt and brush roll maintenance was a breeze as no tools were required. Personally, I'd love to see the clips and levers used in many older American upright vacs like the Hoover Convertibles and Dial-A-Matics come back. Many vacuum manufacturers to all appearance don't want us doing anything that they coupd perfectly well charge us for. A brush plate that requires 6 screws to be undone to get into it isn't easy in my book!
