• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

ALDI wet'n'dry vac

Before investing in a new vacuum I would suggest trying to find out how noisy your intended purchase is. I ended up getting a Nilfisk from Screwfix when it was on special offer. It obviously still makes a noise but doesn’t sound like a 747 taking off like my old one did! Noise is not so much of an issue if you’re just doing the odd hoovering but if it’s on constantly while using another machine it soon gets wearing. ;)

Furthermore very few vacuums will rated for anything like continuous use. If your application is for more than a few minutes at a time and with only short off periods, check the spec carefully for any duty cycle restrictions.
