Central Vacuum Motor Needs Replaced!

I love my central vacuum. If you don't have one you don't know what your missing. That is until it quits working. I called the repair man and he came out to look at it. Yep you guessed it, the news wasn't good. The lamb motor needs replaced. My husband said to just buy a regular vacuum, but I said I'm the one who uses it and when you've had a central vacuum you never go back. I told him we're replacing it. No discussion.
