    I don’t think they come in “buy it for life” varieties.

    The closest thing would be a wet/dry shop vac. They won’t apply soapy water to the floor you’ll have to do that separately, but they start around $50, there are a million attachments for different applications, and they will last for ages.

    For casual domestic use with a good life span I recommend Tineco. They’re a little bit on the expensive side but they go on sale all the time. Cordless convenience decent battery life, “self-cleaning” functions.

      I know. And honestly most things are not BIFL life anymore. But there isn’t community for Best Quality Available for Purchase at This Stage of the Current Shitty Timeline, unfortunately. 🤷‍♂️🫠

        Best option for most IMO is a Tineco refurb with a 2 year warranty. You can occasionally get them for like $75 on sale on eBay, or like $100 normally.
