Meet David Oreck!

It all started with making a better vaccum. Mix that with one talented salesman and ORECK was born!

Selling everything from Whirlpool appliances to RCA televisions and microwaves, David Oreck believed with a redesign of the upright vaccum cleaner, he could give it a new lease on life.

And that he did! The company began manufacturing upright vacuums for the hotel industry. Lightweight, powerful, durable and much preferred over the heavier models. Now, over 50,000 hotels throughout the world use Oreck vacuums. Hotel personnel asked to buy the machines for their own personal use. The rest is history.

Today, Oreck's vacuum empire continues to grow by leaps and bounds with over 347 retail franchise stores and 91 company stores nationwide.

Who doesn't want an ORECK vaccum? Lightweight, easy to use, powerful, payment options and comes with a money-back guarantee!! David Oreck says..."If you don't love it, you don't keep it."
