I got a...
  Samsung
  A bit of an unknown option but cheaper and good reviews
  Was tempted by a Henry Hoover
  Which had tons of good reviews, but seemed better for commercial purposes
  But then there were the really expensive options
  The Mieles and Sebo's and stuff
  But I couldn't figure out if they were really 3x as good
  Because they sure were 3x the price and more!
  Then there was the really cheap stuff on Argos
  But I don't trust reviews on Argos, they're all positive :/

i always buy cheap-ish stuffs.

oftentimes, the higher priced things are actually made in the same factories that make the cheap stuff!

a friend of my in New Castle PA, back when we lived near there, worked for a factory that made car batteries, and he said that most of the brands, all different prices, were really the same thing and came from his shop; tthe companies just put them in different packaging.

i once wanted just a cheap wind up clock to take on a camping trip.
there were costly choices i could have made, things with battery, all-weather, radio whatever

mine just wound up and was made of plastic; it cost almost nothing, and has lasted almost forever.

so there.
