For modern bagged hoovers, the bag is easily removed from the appliance and can be disposed of directly in the bin. Before removal, the bags can easily be closed to prevent any dust escaping.

Discovering foreign countries and cultures and tasting coffee or other delicacies is what I enjoy most when I travel. My home is decorated with little gems I find in thrift shops and at flea markets. When I’m having one of my big DIY moments, my creativity is unleashed. Both the mountains and the seaside restore my inner balance. With a snowboard or surfboard under my feet, I’m happy.
