For $350 a Kenmore 600 Series will out clean just about anything on the market today, has some clever convenience features, a great electric motor hand brush for upholstery, cat towers and the like, and if you are super diligent about only using genuine Kenmore brand HEPA dust bags and filters...

Having to swap heads out for different floor types is no virtue; it's a hassle and evidence of poor design since we know from leading products that it's possible to cater for all floor types with a single, well-designed head. No. A full frontal display of your utter inexperience with actual...

Kenmore had a shop vac in the 1970s or maybe the 80s they sold with the tag line "It's a collectors item"

Stunning !

Here is a tip. You can buy a Miracle Mate hose with a Plastiflex central vacuum hose handle, pry the canister end out and replace it with a Eureka canister end. Then replace the upper wand on the Eureka power nozzle with a central vacuum upper wand with cord control. You will have to file the...

Maybe try using one and find out. If you have never used these kinds of vacuums you have no basis of comparison with which to make an informed opinion. Fact is power nozzles have been latching onto carpets from the very beginning. The very first power nozzle from Lewyt way back in 1957 has...

If you use a cord not rated for the wattage the appliance draw, yes. But a heavy duty extension cord isn't a problem. Our custodial crew uses long extension cords with their Windsor uprights as a matter of routine, but they use a heavy duty grounded cord, not that little thing in the pdf...

Maybe Dyson did that cause otherwise you wouldn't be able to push it on carpets It wasn't that long ago that you could buy a 2200 watt canister vacuum in Europe and people didn't have any problems pushing the nozzles of those on rugs or carpets. In Japan you can buy insanely powerful corded...

Kirbys have some virtues though in my home with mostly hard floors, area rugs, hallway runners ( Kirbys and hallway runners are a workout ) and above floor cleaning they are a lot more work to use than a good canister vac. I have an Avalir I play with but it's just plain hard work. But a...

Good grief it's not enough to avoid that jerks posts. Now they find us on unrelated threads.

Three other dreams. Schoettler needs to sell a synthetic microfiber dust bag with a closed top. The angle of the bag lid on Patriots allows dirt to pile up over the top of the open top Stormy bag. When you open the lid dirt goes everywhere and it is almost impossible to remove the disposable...

For Swedish Electrolux vacuums through the D745 I would re-engineer their wonderful old two stage suction motors so they could be rebuilt easily. Electrolux pressed the fan on and the screw heads holding the field to the fan housing are underneath the field, making the motors impossible to...

Yay. You bought well. That was a good deal.

I see people do that but I never would. Don't want anything to do with vacuums in our dishwasher. Too unsanitary and I don't trust the dishwasher to remove all the contaminants from inside. Also ours heats the water with a coil on the bottom and I worry the heat would distort plastic. It gets...

Look at our back and fourth. You disparage everything anyone says that contradicts your position. You offer a lot of techno gobbledegook but it doesn't match our experience with our own vacuums in our own homes. No one wants to engage because you are so arrogant and condescending towards us...
