Riccar Vacuums
World-Class Clean. Premium vacuums designed and engineered in Missouri.
Riccar makes only vacuums, built for a cleaner home and cleaner air. Most models use self-sealing HEPA media bags that hold dust, allergens and odors inside, and the uprights put chrome steel and aluminum where vacuums wear out. Carmen's Vacuum is an authorized Riccar dealer, and every Riccar vacuum ships free.
