Its not better either...
I have a VAX (as well as a Dyson which never gets used anymore) with a machine washable bag, and that out sucks a dyson every day of the week... It also washes carpets and tiled floors...
And cost a fraction of the money...
Dyson's are the most over-rated junk ever... They are limited in power to the airflow needed to create the vortex to seperate the dust, so a good bagged cleaner can still offer more suck 90% of the time if you stay on top of the bag..
Anyway, as for inventions, I have made several many years ago, that I never patented...
One was the Liquitab using a soluble polymer "bag" to hold a clothes washing liquid... I invented that 10 years ago...
My wife begged and begged me to patent it... How dumb was I...
lol
