Our company's origin dates back to 1957 when Sherwood E.
Ristenbatt purchased an existing vacuum cleaner "stand" at the
Green Dragon Market. Even before that he started selling the
Air-Way vacuum cleaner part time in early 1949 while working
full time for Trojan Boat making wooden cabin cruisers. A back
injury from handling the lumber was instrumental in his decision
to switch to working full time in the vacuum cleaner industry.
During his lifetime he saw the business grow far beyond his
wildest expectations. It's continued growth and expansion since
then, especially fueled by the web in more recent years, continue
to amaze our staff and others in the vacuum cleaner industry.
Ristenbatt Vacuum initially launched their website back in 1996 before many of the vacuum
manufacturers had websites. David E. Ristenbatt, its president, was excited to be able to help
many more people make wiser, more informed decisions regarding their vacuum cleaner purchases.
The web provided a vehicle by which much more information could be provided to the consumer at a
very reasonable cost than any other media.
The Educational Articles were the first to be written to provide basic information which can be
applied to almost any make or model of vacuum.
