    Dyson Piston

    You're projecting so hard that you should be in the movie theater business.

    Dyson Piston

    Me when I don't have any proper counterarguments to the points presented to me. There's no point. He'll use them, overlook or diminish important features/factors on the units, make a bunch of BS graphs full of a enough meaningless information to look legitimate, and use that "information" to...

    Dyson Piston

    Vacuum Misinformation does not appreciate the vacuum cleaner as an appliance. He just simply doesn't. Any vacuum cleaner that's not his beloved cordless Dyson he heavily disparages, dismisses their worth, diminishes any historical value they might have, and insults those of us who find those...

    New Kenmore Upright Vacuum

    Panasonic was doing some really innovative things without being super gimmicky, its a shame they pulled out of the vacuum cleaner market in North America. They perfected the clean air upright design (alonside Electrolux), they had beltless brush drives way before brands like Dyson, their attempt...

    What is the Weirdest Vacuums You've Seen?

    +1 for the Hoover Z, not surprised someone beat me to it. Just behind the Z in my book of weirdest vacuums is the Dyson DC15. The original Ball. I cannot believe this was a machine that got greenlit for production. I've been told it was still in the prototype stage when it was put out and that...

    Worst vacuum.

    Anything Shark makes is the worst. Poorly made, terrible cyclone design for a bagless, serviceability is either difficult or nonexistent for some components, many parts are either difficult or impossible to get, they often kick the bucket within 1-3 years, and despite all this their higher end...

    New OEM Lindhaus HF6 Electric Hose/Wand kit 181870081

    I have a brand new OEM Lindhaus HF6 Electric hose and wand kit up for sale. From what I understand these are NLA from Lindhaus. The kit used to run about $200 from Lindhaus, I'm asking $175 with shipping.

    Miele Guard L1 vs old C3 - airflow through the hose?

    Where can these be found? I have an older HF6 that originally came with the 2 stage Rotafil thats shot so I've been wanting to replace it with either a 2 stage Ametek or Domel, perferably the latter. Those Rotafils are decent performers but I prefer the simplicity and wider availablity of Domel...

    Miele Guard L1 vs old C3 - airflow through the hose?

    Vacuum companies list the water lift/CFM ratings for their motors by themselves not actually installed in the machines. The numbers they actually get will always be less. It's the same as car manufacturers listing engine crank horsepower despite the fact what a given car will actually be putting...

    Help me decide: Nilfisk GD930, or Aerus, or something else

    From what I understand Sebos higher price in the U.S is because of dealer margin and that would make sense. I will say while it depends on a dealer you'd be hard pressed to pay full MSRP on a D4; I had a local dealer offering me $300 off just on the phone (back in 2023 when the MSRP was $1299)...

    Vorwerk Kobold VK-150 from Japan, will run on US house current. German exotica in the far east.

    The VK140/VK150 are an absolute beast of a vacuum and you don't expect it from it's size, overall design, and very light weight. I imported a VK140 from the UK which is the same as a VK150 just in green and actually with slightly more power. It's the only vacuum I currently have where I can't...

    Help me decide: Nilfisk GD930, or Aerus, or something else

    The Lindhaus HF6 is a great option. It's a very large tub style bagged canister vacuum with a huge capacity. 3.5 gallon bag! It also offers sealed filtration with an optional HEPA or charcoal filter, very long 40 ft cord, very nice onboard tools with good storage, long 7 ft hose, and the M29R...

    Main Equivalency! Which one would you take?

    If we're talking specifically cordless vacuums you can't really get much closer to a corded vacuum than the Lindhaus Valzer L-Ion (also sold in red as the Karisma L-Ion). It's a Valzer/Karisma upright but cordless. It uses a DC version of Lindhaus' wonderful M30/PB12e powerhead, it's bagged of...

    Pick your poison: Main equivalency!

    No you wouldn't, you have zero desire to change your mind. Every single shred of evidence or testing thats not yours you have dismissed, going so far as to blame any Dyson reliability issues on the user. You come onto this forum with your high and mighty arrogant attitude that your testing, your...
