    I am voting to name it the "Little Lisa" since it was inspired by the rug cleaning legend Lisa Wagner. It is nice to honor the great people in our industry.

    Although Ive submitted a couple ideas, I like the current name "rugbadger mini" people know the name rugbadger and mini is the best way to describe the new product design... JMO

    How about the RugBarrager since you barrage people with emails? Geez I must have had a dozen emails from Rug Badger over the weekend. Pre Black Friday sales, Black Friday Sales, Post Black Friday sales, Cyber Monday sales. Freakin ridiculous. Had to unsubscribe.

    So... Barry, all I said, several times, was this industry needs a badger that is smaller, cheaper, and much quieter (my repair team could not stand the noise when we tested it). That is not enough to name a machine after me - LOL - or if you did, it could be "The Complainer".

    I submitted Budger (a Badger on a Budget) - but I like the "buddy" name mentioned above.

    Good luck with your contest...

    Well Lisa, I kinda doubt that you are going to like the new unnamed as of yet RugBadger. It is certainly not quite, nore of coarse are vacuums.... not that they are really terribly loud, its just the pitch of them that drive me crazy, kinda like when kids on jet ski's run around in circles for hours in front of my cottage,, GRRR i hate that sound, but for some reason I dont mind the boat noise as its a deeper sound I guess.

    Of coarse Lisa, you could just tell all your staff to wear hearing protectors!

    Seriously in my cleaning studio, we keep the dusting area separate from the rest of the work area so not only does it keep the noise at bay, but it keeps the dust from getting all over the building.. hope this tip helps.

    btw Lisa, thanks for inspiring,, errr complaining here on TMF for a new smaller, lighter and cheeper RugBadger. I will have to keep working on developing a quiter one... and just remember to use TYVEK over the back of smaller and more fragile rugs when you Badger rugs,, and wear hearing protection,,,LOL> :)

    Regarding the name that gets chosen,, im leaving this up to my sweetheart Robin and she will be choosing the winner this weekend!

    Keep the names coming,, i am seeing some real good ones that are surprising me... (THANKS ALL)

    btw, here is a link to see a pic of it and compare with our other models
