Air Port...Blue or Protective Film? Hey guys another question for you. The blower port (that has the Lux Platinum logo), does it have a blue tinge because it's made that way or is there a blueish plastic protective film that can be pulled off?

FYI...Swivel Hose Hey guys...here's an FYI. I contacted Aerus via email last night and they responded this morning with this answer. "Thank you for your message. All of our Aerus vacuums have a stationary hose end, so that it does not swivel. At one time, the Guardian Platinum had an issue...

Hose At Canister... Is the hose able to turn at the end where it connects to the vacuum? (anti-kink) Mine only turns at the handle end.

Power Head Belt Question... Can someone explain what a "life time belt" is. Do Aerus Lux Guardian Platinum's come with one or since it turns the power head off when obstructed, is that just as good or better in some way?

Discounted Simplicity... On the Riccar web site the TOL Prima Power Team With Premium Tandem Air Nozzle go for $1399.99 (https://www.riccar.com/product/prima-power-team-with-premium-tandem-air-nozzle) The TOL Simplicity (same Wonder Premium Canister with Tandem Air Nozzle) retails for...

This looks interesting. Does anyone have any insight on Cirrus canisters?

Rob... Thanks for letting me know that at least for now I wont be buying an outdated vacuum as soon as I get it. But yes, it could use some updates. I must be exceptionally hard on vacuums. Almost to the day, the Riccar Immaculate has seen better days. It's been five years since I did my...

Hi everyone. Has anyone heard if Aerus has any plans to update the Lux Guardian Platinum either this year or in the next few years? I ask because I'm going to jump on a brand new 2019 model from ebay very soon. Will they ever offer a telescoping wand? Quieter power head? The posts on the...

Did you make a decision @senornathan Did you wind up getting the Lux Guardian Platinum? Can you give us a review. I haven't seen any talk about this vacuum lately. I'm toying with the idea of getting one myself.

Update...Filter Price My vacuum sales guy called and said the filter came in from the special order. I asked how much it would be and he said it was in the $6 range. I forget the exact price he quoted me. I'll pick it up on Monday and also pick up another exaust HEPA exaust filter.

Dysonman1... Thanks for clifiying that for me. I called my vacuum dealer and he's going to order me that filter. I can't seem to find it anywhere online. Thanks's everyone!

Inside Vacuum

Pictures... Here is the premotor filter. It seems like it's one solid unit. I can feel the spines all the way through to the other side of the filter. You can also hear the charcoal beads when you shake the cartridge. It's like each square is it's own little compartment that holds the...

Bump... Anybody have any ideas?

Hi people and thanks in advance for any help you can assist me with. The light on my Riccar Immacualte Canister was blinking to "Service Filter". So I assume that means to replace the HEPA filter that filters exaust on the top of the machine. I did purchase (when I bought the vacuum) a spare...
