During my college days, I spent almost 2 years as the servicemaster repairman. I saw many things take out a vacuum cleaner, the most interesting was a penny. The damn thing shattered the impeller and got sucked into the motor windings where it's death was marked with fireworks. After replacing the impeller and motor, I dismantled the motor to find that plastic mountings in the case were broken before the penny made it to the motor windings where it cut nearly 1 inch of windings. If I remember correctly, this was the same cleaning lady that tripped a breaker when she vacuumed over her own cord and it rubbed away the outer insulation AND the insulation of hot and ground. UGH! I SOOOOO wanted to garnish her wages for the repairs she caused our equipment.
