The #warranty is a fascinating piece of brand backing and marketing. Take #Dyson Cinetic Big Ballâ„¢ upright vacuum 5 yr warranty. Claiming "The only vacuum cleaner with strong suction and no filters to wash or replace". Only problem? Has filters. Thus will need to be replaced.
This isn't some absurd claim. This is just how filters work. Their job is to catch particles/dirt/etc as air enters a motor/engine/system. They work. Thus dust collects. Thus filters get dirty. Thus filters must be replaced.
I just ordered these filters from Amazon, to arrive tomorrow, for $65~ish (takes 2). My alternative, for the 5 year warranty, is to drive 23 miles to the service center (I live in a big metropolitan area; most probably farther).
