Shopping
at your Local Floor Care Dealer
Benefits of shopping at the Vac Shak, your local independent
floor care retailer.
Get Advice From the Experts
There are hundreds of brands and models of vacuum cleaners on the market today.
Vacuum cleaners are available from a variety of outlets. Your local, independent
floor care retailers are experts on vacuum cleaners and other home cleaning
aids. That's their business. Your local dealer can give you advice and
information not available from any other outlet -- the benefit of years of
experience and product knowledge on a large variety of vacuum cleaner brands and
models. This knowledge and advice can make all the difference when you're trying
to find the vacuum cleaner that's right for your specific needs. Every homeowner
has a different cleaning situation -- pets, allergies, carpet type, hard floor
surfaces, etc. Your local dealer can show you how different vacuum cleaner
models will handle them all.
Product Demonstrations
You can buy a vacuum cleaner almost anywhere. All you have to do is go into a
store, pick up a box and pay for it. This severely limits your buying
information -- to what you read on the outside of a box or what a stock clerk
can tell you about the product (usually very little). Your local floor care
dealer will take the time to walk you through the specific features and benefits
available on a variety of vacuum cleaner models. They will SHOW YOU how these
models perform and let you make direct comparisons between them. Because most
independent floor care dealers carry a variety of vacuum cleaners from different
manufacturers an in all price ranges, you can find the one vacuum cleaner that
will best suit your needs.
Service After the Sale
The vast majority of local independent floor care dealers provide their
customers with an on-site service and repair department staffed with
knowledgeable service technicians. In fact many dealers are authorized service
centers for the most popular vacuum cleaner brands. Members of the VDTA/SDTA
attend service and repair seminars and certification programs offered to them by
the Association. When you see this symbol in your local dealer's store, you can
be assured of quality service and repair.
