My family takes brutal honesty to a whole new level. They'd probably call that vacuum "useless" and suggest using it as a weird planter. My dad's feedback is just him sighing and shaking his head for five minutes straight. Guess my glowing reviews need that kind of reality check before I post them. Saves everyone from buying junk.

You mentioned the grip is safer when wet and I get that, but what about oil or chemical spills? I mean, doesn't bare concrete just soak that stuff in and stain forever? Do you just not care about the stains, or is there a trick to getting it out of plain concrete that I don't know about?

Why do we always assume gear's broken? @emery_martinez15 nailed it, my stove was on low.
