From humble beginnings in owner John Kavin’s kitchen to its storefront home on Main Street in Caribou, County-Wide Vacuum service and sales has been helping County folks with their vacuum needs for over 20 years.
County-Wide Vacuum has the largest in-stock selection of bags, belts, filters, repair parts and accessories north of Bangor and south of Edmundston, N.B. And they perform only high quality repairs and restorations on most major brand name vacuums like Kenmore, Oreck, Rainbow, Kirby, Electrolux, Aerus, Hoover, Eureka, Dirt Devil, Bissell and built-ins.
Kavin sells only the highest quality vacuums. “I choose only what I determine to be the best choice for the money and most reliable,” he said. “We are very selective.”
Educating all who enter his shop Kavin spreads the gospel of the bagged vacuum and how his machines give you a bigger bang for your buck. “County-Wide Vacuum sells the best and services the rest,” he said as he illuminated over his commercial quality line of Sanitaire, Lindhaus, Koblenz, Cirrus and Panasonic vacuums. Have no fear, Kavin also offers domestic type vacuums as well.
Kavin strives to keep costs low while at the same time keep his inventory high and the prices on stock, sales and service fair.
What’s kept County-Wide Vacuum in service for over two decades is consistent, reliable hard work, which keeps many clients returning along with legions of new customers through word of mouth. “Service after the sale is what keeps the customers coming back,” he said.
Kavin likes to say that “we’re still vacuuming the same dirt our parents vacuumed” and what he means by that is the tried and true sucking technology and bagged machines is what he focuses his time and energy on. He doesn’t fall for gimmicks and doesn’t want you to either that’s why he makes an effort to instill knowledge in all of his customers.
