Vacuum question

Our vacuum puts out a horrible smell every time we use it. We have changed the bag and the filters and still it stinks!

It works, the suction is fine and nothing seems to be caught anywhere. Its not a burning smell but it smells bad. I usually light a candle when I'm done vacuuming to get rid of the smell.

Any idea what could be wrong? The vacuum is still pretty new and I'd rather not buy a new one right now.

Re: Vacuum question

if you have carpet, maybe put down some baking soda. Then when it goes through the vacuum and into the bag,etc, that may help.

Also, when I had a vac with bag, I used to put a dryer sheet in the new bag, it helped.

Good luck!

You can have your vacuum serviced.
I had mine serviced and it ran and smelled soo much better.

I had mine serviced at Deer Park Vacuums, not sure where you are located.
