I love the new stick vacuum that I have been using, but I have to admit that there are limitations with it.
I need a great vacuum that I can use to get all the dirt that kids and pets can track into the house on a regular basis. But, I also need to be able to pull out a hose to get into all those corners, vacuum furniture, and get rid of cobwebs and dust bunnies all at the same time. So the new Oreck Halo Vacuum could not have come at a better time.
This vacuum is fully capable of doing it all and then some!
The Oreck Halo has two high-powered motors. One drives the "brushroll” that fluffs the carpet's nap while the other delivers maximum suction and pickup, which means the dirt and germs it kills are quickly trapped inside the HEPA 13 filter bag for safe removal. The bag is so tightly woven that dead germs stay inside, and Oreck's patented Sani-Seal tab prevents them from escaping when emptied.
But what really makes this vacuum so unique is it's cutting edge Halo function which is unlike anything else I've ever seen before.
What is Halo?
The Oreck Halo uses proprietary UV-C technology – the same technology that safely and effectively disinfects drinking water and sterilizes operating rooms – to eliminate many of the harmful things you can't
see
A high-powered UV-C bulb is housed in a patented light chamber with a durable quartz glass exterior, and independent tests prove this UV-C light kills more than 99 percent of many common germs it comes in contact with.Check out the video below to get a better idea of just what this means for you and your family.
The Oreck Halo's patented UV-C light comes with a five-year warranty and the vacuum has a three-year warranty and includes three free tune ups at any Oreck Clean Home Center.
Did you know?
- One square inch of carpet can contain more than 200,000 bacteria particles, compared to 49 bacteria particles found on a household toilet seat.
- dust mites are on of the leading causes of indoor allergies, particularly asthma?
- there are more germs on household surfaces than on toilets seats, kitchen counters, and bathroom tles combined?
I have been enjoying the peace of mind that comes from knowing that I am doing all that I can to keep my family living the a healthy environment.
The only complaint I have with this vacuum is that it was a tad bit heavy to push around in the beginning. But after a few weeks of using it, I have gotten use to it, and it doesn't bother me so much anymore.
The Oreck Halo is available for $599.95 on Oreck's Web site, in 450 Oreck Clean Home Centers nationwide or by calling Oreck directly at 888.600.HALO (888.600.4256).
