Cleaning Today Makes Tomorrow Better Memes by Eve @ imgflip / Vintage Eureka Vacuum Ad |
A: Do independent research until I arrive at my answer, which I finally have:
First I did a Google search that brought up Choosing the Best Vacuum Cleaner by Consumer Reports:
Bagged vs. Bagless:
“Bagless vacuum cleaners save on the cost of purchasing bags, but they also require more filters that need periodic cleaning or—for HEPA filters—replacing. The dust and mess of emptying the bin of a bagless model can be problematic if you have asthma or allergies.“

Then I found an article in the same search that reviews the 10 Best Commercial Vacuums for Home Use or Worksites 2019 and they are all bagged vacuums.

Then I remembered when I worked as a commercial housekeeper, and the facility only used bagged vacuums; so I know and can verify from my own experience that bagged vacuums are the standard in luxury commercial facilities; and since bagged vacuums are the standard, that tells me that commercial businesses don't even expect their employed housekeepers to spend time cleaning vacuum filters, so I will not put myself through that at home when it wasn't expected of me on the job.

Conclusion: I originally thought bagless would be the way to go for my next vacuum upgrade and was set on getting one, but the more I research, the more I am realizing that a bagged vacuum will suit my needs best; I have also read a good amount of vacuum reviews where people went bagless and hated it due to the small bins that require emptying after each use and went back to a bag that holds more. I don’t doubt bagless has its benefits, but when it comes to what will work best for my vacuuming regime I will stick with a bagged model, since bags are the standard in luxury and that’s good enough for me.

Housekeeping Tip: Not sure how often to vacuum? Consider the fact that vacuuming happens every day, multiple times a day, in luxury destinations where people pay good money to vacate their homes; therefore, if people pay for and expect daily cleanliness outside their homes, then that should always be the goal inside a home as well. After all, if you wouldn't pay money to stay somewhere that's just like your home, then why are you paying to live in your home?
