A water vacuum cleaner sounds like an interesting new design of a hoover.
I'm not sure whether many people would want to go out to the shops and buy them though. If they're vacuum cleaners that use water instead of air, wouldn't they make everywhere wet? Also, there are many places you can't really get to, the air blows the particles out to places you can easily get to. I'm not sure whether the water would do such a good job at moving these particles.
Water does have its advantages as you stated in the post above. You mentioned germs and cleaning the air. If you use a normal air vacuum cleaner, the bacteria wouldn't really be removed, you'd just be blowing the visible particles into the hoover bag ready to be collected by the rubbish men. If you were able to use a water vacuum cleaner, like this h20 model, you could perhaps add some kind of disinfectant solution which could completely remove the germs.
I'm not sure whether water vacuum cleaners would make the air fresher by a lot, unless they were able to include an air freshener or something similar.
They're still new, it may be that they'll become a lot more popular than the air vacuum cleaners and not soak everywhere. I suppose only time will tell. I wouldn't fancy going out and buying one until I know it actually does the job properly.
I think these vacuum cleaners are a very nice idea for cleaning things like tiles, but for carpets I think using water cleaners isn't a good idea. It's better to use the standard air ones.
