I love my Simplicity Freedom upright. I happened to get lucky and got an older model in a thrift store for $25. Best purchase I’ve ever made. It’s extreme lightweight, all parts are heavy duty, repairable, and it is uses HEPA bags (which are everywhere and can be found quite cheaply.

It does not have a detachable hose, but it’s quite amazing at what it does do and I never worry about clogging.

I did it for quite some time. I think close to 1.5 years. I bought a metric ton of it during Covid and I never ever got sick of drinking it. To me it’s like drinking water and my brain just adapted to it. I did get tired of people asking me if I was tired of drinking Soylent. That was legitimately nonstop.
