No surgery, just a needle in the spine. I chose to go with mild sedation. When the docs ask if I am allergic to anything I always say yes, I'm allergic to pain : /

In the late 1980s Panasonic offered what they called a "Dual Sweep" power nozzle with their premium canister models MC9537 and MC9540. The Dual Sweep power nozzles had a neck with just a wee bit of fore and aft play, and a microswitch in the neck that told a circuit board which direction you...

I was laying in a surgery center a year ago being prepped for a cortisone injection in my spine to try to relieve some back pain. They were playing some radio station or maybe it was Sirius and there was this long informercial for Shark. The breathless announcer was talking about Shark...

That Samsung nozzle is nothing special but at least it is easy to use and doesn't weigh a lot. If anything it could benefit for some strategically placed weight on the nose. The F-Q CA-93 power nozzle is unbelievably heavy and hard to push yet the agitation is not that good.

Darn. There is no need to hide being on the spectrum. There is so much help available out there if you seek it. Our little boy is on the spectrum so we have some hands on experience. I don't know your age but it is never too late to seek help through things like Applied Behavior Analysis...

I have never seen an L shaped power nozzle from Samsung. They had the PH90 which was closely based on the old GE power nozzle later used by Filter Queen and later they started selling this one you see. Because parts for the Samsung power nozzles are long out of production and Samsung vacuums...

ABSOLUTELY I DO !!!

I haven't had good results from them in terms of their ability to dig out pet hair. Lindhaus, Sebo, Kenmore, Aerus/Electrolux, Riccar, CMB Edgelift all do better on our rugs. Factor in $95 OEM plastic replacement brush rolls for the SEB 236 and the fact that these $95 brush rolls are plastic...

Sales numbers mainly but every model, every feature were competitive. Hoover was usually a bit ahead though. It was one of those epic industrial competitions. And Kenmore and Electrolux were always right there nipping at their heels for sales though both had some technical advances over...

No. Not apple cider vinegar. You need to use white vinegar. Believe me. I have de-stunk ( is that a word, lol ) a lot of vacuums. White vinegar, alcohol, some Zep's orange degreaser from Home Depot, a wee bit of dish detergent and the hottest water you can stand. Sometimes just leaving...

Not so different from Hoover and Eureka 50 - 60 years ago.

So while looking up what a Nilfisk Sprint looks like I discovered this advertisement. Looks like Nilfisk was selling the Samsung Quiet Storm with Nilfisk branding. The red machine on the left is a Quiet Storm.

Bissell also sold these Cleanalong things with a power nozzle to boot ...

The Power Partner 6800 even has a blower port !
