After kind of abusing our old vacuum cleaner after remodeling a bathroom and using it to pick up drywall and other debris that I should not have, I took it in to AAA. He explained how drywall turns to powder which is deadly for household vaccum cleaners but said he could give it his best cleaning shot although because of the abuse he couldn't guarantee it. He also heard what he thought were loose bearings which he said meant the vaccum could go whenever and when it did it would not be worth repairing. Granted, he said it could go in a week or last a couple years, just that the bearings would not be worth replacing. After about 3 days he called back (a few days earlier than he estimated) and we went in. He said it was a good vaccum and actually recommended against replacing it with a cheap model. There was no pressure to buy an expensive one - he just said to buy a good one when we did after this one died. He spent quite some time with us and eventually we wound up buying one on sale that, while admittedly was more than we were planning on was a lot cheaper than the top of the line. He said it was probably the best value in the store at the time. He also threw in the cleaning of our old vac (which we now treat as kind of a shop vac in the garage). He was very knowledgeable and spoke about a lot of technical aspects that made sense - most shops always seem to say just toss and buy new. He repaired it willingly and made recommendations - part of why we eventually just went ahead and bought new from AAA so we could have them service. Several months later and still consider the new vac a great deal.

AAA Sewing & Vacuum in the north end of Burien (almost White Center) is a father-son business that's been around for years. They have been great at finding our church the right vacuum for our needs and negotiated a great price. After several years and a few different kinds of vacuums, we've only had two repairs which they took care of right away. Too bad I don't know how to sew or quilt, because they have tons of sewing machines, too. Maybe I should take one of their many sewing classes. These are nice people and a nice place to do business.
