i presume that some people are referring to me about what i said. i apologized for it, and am over it. if my apology is not enough, than what is good enough? shall i have my previous statement(s) removed?

cracked hose on demo units? consider who uses the demo machines, and what, if any abuse the machines take on a daily basis. heck, i have been to a riccar dealer, and on 2 of his tandem air machines, they had no bag doors on them. and if i am not mistaken, i think that the sebo canister wands are...

Durango159, we all get how much you hate sebo, you need not bash them over and over again. there are brands that i do not like, but i am not going to keep bashing the brand(s) over and over again. give it a break.

riccar and simplicity vacuums are made in the same factory as eachother. they are mechanically the same, and use the same bags, belts, filters, etc. of eachother. the only differences are colors of the vacuums, and headlight design.

if space is an issue, the titan is a small unit. but, the good thing with miele is that all of their canisters use the same motor, filters, powernozzles, etc. the s2 series, which the titan is considered, has a unsealed system, but still filters well enough for most people. if asthma or...

i have a miele titan, and i have 2 issues with it. the first is the hepa filter, which does not do a good job removing odors, such as pet odors. the other issue is the 217 powernozzle. i have 2 area rugs downstairs, and i have to vacuum those rugs on lowest setting, and have to run the...

for the wool area rugs, if you are looking at a miele canister, the 217-3 powernozzle has a very soft roller brush. i dont know how soft/stiff the 228 or 236 powernozzles are, i never used one. as others said, sebo offers soft brush rolls for their uprights and canister powernozzles. if you...

i apologize for what i posted earlier. one tends to not be happy when one finds out recently that his fathers cancer has returned at stage 4. so sorry about that earlier post again. and anyway if you like uprights take a look at a simplicity/riccar tandem air upright.

i guess that I was wrong for buying a sebo 5 years ago, because apparently they are not user friendly, dont groom well, cant be used on thick carpet because the nozzle cuts out, dont clean thick carpets well either. well, maybe if i bought and used nothing but the almighty kirby, i would not be...

"A question on the edge feature-is there a way to turn off the roller brush to use it?" In the users manual, it recommends that the user shut off the brushroll when using that feature. It also says to not use the extension hose when using the edge cleaner slot. After reading that, I thought to...

it has the funniest way of cleaning edges of carpeting. essentially, the user has to disconnect the hose from the bottom of the back of the machine, attach the crevice tool to the hose end, and connect it at the bottom of the machine, to clean edges. you have to watch the video to see just how...

"The killer is the part where they try to show how bad a Dyson upright is on bare floors - notice that the thing isn't even plugged in!" My take on that is he was not showing cleaning performance of the dyson, but rather how you can hear the dyson scraping the barefloor, but the powernozzle on...

in terms of filtration, sebo has a carbon odor pre-motor filter, and also they now have ultra bags, which are cloth material. and, 20 dollars for 8 of those cloth bags is a pretty good price, i think about equal to a box of 10 of the paper bags for the felix. here is a link for the cloth bags...

i was on another vacuum cleaner forum today, and came across this about oreck. i have never seen that infomercial though, i have just seen the occasional platinum pilot infomercials from time to time...

i was looking at miele vacuums on ebay tonight, and came across this: http://cgi.ebay.com/MIELE-SUPRA-LITE-TWO-SPEED-2010-MODEL-EXCELLENT-/120719707741?pt=US_Vacuum&hash=item1c1b748e5d
