I have a Royal Upright that I bought for $350 in 1996 and it's still going strong. I had to take it in a few years back because it wasn't picking up so good and was going to trade it in for a Dyson but the guy said mine was better made than a Dyson. It's metal (heavy) and works great for pet hair. It cost me less than $100 to replace the roller (the bristles were wearing down which caused the problem) and get a tuneup. That's been about 6 years ago and still works great.
