Vacuum cleaners are known to be quite noisy helpers in household chores. It’s their groaning, rhythmic noises that remain in your head and even drown your muted hum as you move around the house with the cumbersome task at hand. Behold, if this has been your bother then go in for the Electrolux UltraSilencer. It comes with an iPod dock and speakers and an extremely quite motor. The muffled sound of the motor clocks just 68 decibels. That’s a lot softer than your boss briefing you on a Monday morning, and yet you sleep through it.

Here’s the real stone on the heart: it’s a bloody concept. And it will be a concept till there are a convincing number of takers for it. Surely, having something like in the house will ensure that it’s cleaner than usual and of course, a lot more musical.
