Oreck Vacuum Cleaners

David Oreck was born in the 1920s and accomplished many things in his life.  Eventually, he acquired from the Whirlpool Corporation a design for a vacuum cleaner that the company had abandoned.  During that same time he also managed to get a hold of an RCA distribution center located in New Orleans, Louisiana.  This, too, was failing.  Oreck, however, used both of these things to create the Oreck Corporation in 1963, at the age of 40.  Most men look toward a few more years and then retirement when they are 40, but Oreck had a vision of creation, and out of that vision Oreck vacuum cleaners were born.  Oreck’s largest selling point is the weight of his vacuum cleaners.

History of Vacuum Cleaners


The popular vacuum cleaner design that we know today can be traced back to the middle 1800’s. The first successful attempt at making a mechanized carpet-cleaning product was in Chicago. A man named Ives McGaffey developed a simple machine that would clean dirt from rugs and carpets. While the machine was mechanical in nature, it was not electrical. It required a person to hand crank the vacuum as it went along the rug.
McGaffey’s invention was a step forward from traditional methods of carpet cleaning. For centuries the methods were rudimentary. What a person did was use an instrument called a carpet beater. The carpet beater was made of wood and resembled a tennis racket. They were extremely popular until vacuum cleaners eventually became inexpensive.
