Why do vacuum cleaners have lights on the front of them?

Posted by admin
mimaolta asked:


You can’t vacuum if there’s no power, so why would you need the light? You can’t get into the corners of the carpet anyhow, so why taunt you by showing you the extra dust?
And how many people really vacuum under their collective beds/couches?

      It’s to warn the dust bunnies so that they can hide under the couch. It’s PETA thing.

      So you can see what you are vacuuming up under your couch or easy chair where it is dark. (A lot of couches used to sit up off the ground.)

      Safety concerns, to that a little kid might not ride a tricylce in to one, ect. I think they should also have little horns that you can beep.

      extra gadgets sell products.

      It’s not about being able to see, it’s about being able to see better. You may be able to see the dust better with more light.

      However, if you’re at all familiar with the blender-button war of the 1950s, there is another possibility. Blenders got ridiculous in the 50’s, advertising 40 different speeds. Honestly, would you use 40 speeds in a blender?. Six are plenty. However, if you’re deciding between a blender with 25 speeds and 40 speeds, which are you more likely to buy? I think that the light in the front of the vacuum is a necessity because we’re more likely to buy one with a light than without.
