They say everything’s bigger in Texas, but we recently scored high marks for our light weight design and easy maneuverability with the one and only, High-Tech Texan, Michael Garfield.

Garfield, a regular guest on Dallas-based, WFAA, featured our vac in a Tech Tuesday segment about high tech spring cleaning gadgets. Garfield marveled at the weight of the AirRam (a whole 7.7 lbs.) and loved how it can easily get around.

“It’s got an angle that you can get as low as you want to go.” - Michael Garfield, The High-Tech Texan

And of course, being a lover of all things tech, the USB plug in scored more points than a prize pig at the county fair.

“The best thing is… if you plug it in, it shows you how many calories you expend while you’re vacuuming. You can’t beat that!” – Garfield

Well that got a good old “Yee-Haw” out of us! Thank you Mr. High Tech Texan. :) They say don’t mess with Texas so we’re thrilled to get a nod from the beautiful Lone Star State. See the entire review below!

We all know the AirRam is revolutionary, light weight and high performing, but one of the things people really love about it is its compact design, which makes it so easy to stash pretty much anywhere!

Those who live in condos and apartments know space is at a premium. So, for them, the AirRam's slim features are a big plus! And let's not forget house dwellers too. Being able to park your AirRam anywhere around the house, instead of lugging a big bulking vac around, is a big bonus as well.

So where do you stash your AirRam? We'd love to see. We've already got some great pics of inventive places to park our compact vac. Check them out on our Facebook page and then, post yours! The more creative the better! Happy Vacuuming! :)

"A home can be drastically improved with just a handful of awesome items. Here’s a few recommended ones…" - Jack Archer, Airows

We like the sound of it so far! No one knows hip and cutting edge like Jack Archer (even his name is cool), founder of the blog site, Airows. This guy has his finger on the pulse of what's hot in lifestyle, tech and design. He recently reviewed one of our AirRams and added us to his list of Cool Home Supplies for Your Bachelor Pad. After taking it for a spin, Archer quickly honed in on the things that really set the AirRam apart from the rest.

"It’s CORDLESS, which doesn’t seem that game changing until you actually use it... it ups the convenient factor significantly and means you don’t have to constantly re-plug as you move throughout the space. You charge once and it lasts about ten times longer than you’d assume." - Archer

That's right, on one charge, your Airram will run for about 40 minutes. Plenty of time to clean the house. So overall, what did Mr. Archer think?

"Hands down, this is the best vacuum your money can buy." - Archer

Seriously, someone call Clooney. Hollywood's hottest bachelor needs an AirRam (I'll deliver it in person ;-)). In the meantime, check out the entire review here.

We've been busy here at Gtech USA, not only working hard to provide the best-loved vacuum in America, but also moving to our new US headquarters in the funky little hamlet of Paulus Hook in Jersey City, New Jersey!

We are so excited to start working from our new office space, just a stone's throw from the Big Apple. In fact, we have a beautiful view of the new World Trade Center, right down the street, across the mighty Hudson River.

This will now be the new hub of our operations. We are homegrown at our US base of operations. And, hey, we're from 'Jersey... what more could you ask for? (oh yeah, and in answer to your next question, its exit 14C).

For those who don't know, Paulus Hook in Jersey City, which is just across from downtown Manhattan, is a city on the move. There's a great history here; it's on the National Register of Historic Places for its pivotal role in the American Revolution (google Battle of Paulus Hook), and in the last decade a burgeoning arts district and major redevelopment has brought in new businesses, young urban professionals, families, fantastic cafes and shops to explore. It's a great place to visit!

What's more, this area of Jersey City is just a stone's throw from our Lady Liberty and Ellis Island.. where so many people came to the New World to find their success in America. For thousands of immigrants, their first steps in the New World were taken here. So it seems quite appropriate that Gtech USA should land here... seeking to bring the same success we've had across the pond (where are the fastest growing vacuum brand in the UK in 2013*) to the US! Our goal is to bring that same love of vacuuming to millions of people across America.

But to really understand the beauty of this area, you have to see it. So we put together a little tour of our new digs, the local landmarks and the amazing views. Check out our photos here on our Facebook page and there's plenty more to come as we welcome new team members to our Gtech USA team. And while you're there, please be sure to "like" our page so we can keep you up to date on all the Gtech happenings.
