RP: Is a vacuum worth repairing?

My mom bought us a Hoover Pet Cyclonic last year for Christmas.  I looked it up and it seems to retail between $150-190.  We loved it.  It cleaned extremely well.  The other night it just totally crapped out on us.  Just turned off out of nowhere.  I have no clue what it could be (anyone?).  So there is a local place (here in NJ) that fixes vacuums but I don't even know if it's worth it. 

Anyone ever fix one?  Cost?  Thoughts?

Re: RP: Is a vacuum worth repairing?

  • Call the sweeper repair place to see if they can do a diagnostic on your sweeper. The last time my 30 year old Eureka upright stopped working, it just needed a new power cord. It cost about $30.00 for the whole repair. Certainly cheaper than a new sweeper. Once they diagnose the problem, you can decide whether or not you want to spend the money for the repair, or just buy a new one.
  • I have the same vaccume and mine has broken before and my husband just put a new belt on it and it worked again. You can find it at your local hardware store. I'm not sure how to do it exactly but I'm sure you could figure it out.
