    What happened to the UK members?

    My old thread. Never thought this would be resurrected.

    Windsor Sensor XP12 auto height not working

    I haven’t done that before. I have an X7 and when I want it to dig in a bit more I just throw on the boost. I would imagine if someone needs a bit more grooming or the X4/XP12 to dig in a bit more, disabling might not be the worst thing if it just leads to the premature wearing of the...

    Windsor Sensor XP12 auto height not working

    Could it be that the auto adjust was disabled? As I understand there is a trick to keep the auto adjust models on the lowest settings by disabling the auto feature. How this is done I am not sure. Presumably by going under the hood and pulling the wire from the auto adjustment.

    Added a new machine to my collection

    Have two of these.....a black U1 AutoEco and a White U1 Auto Eco. Forgot what it was actually called.

    Vorwerk vk7

    If Vorwerk can bring this to the US for around $799 I think it would sell well. If Shark makes it you know it will be bagless. I am sure Roger will do a review at some point, but since it's so expensive, he may wait until there is a sale or Vorwerk provides him with a review sample.

    This seems like a winner. This is what the Miele Triflex should have been. Wish this was coming to North America.

    Sebo Cordless SoftCase BP60

    @mike811 Looks like this one will be expensive one in Europe too! You can but an X7 and a Felix, in the UK at least, for the price of this.

    Sebo Cordless SoftCase BP60

    Now I know why it may be a while for this to show up in the US. It is 875GBP. You can buy an X7 and a Felix plus have spare change for that amount in the UK. Here it would be damn near $2,000, which would price it out the market, yet the corded version only costs $399 here.

    Sebo Cordless SoftCase BP60

    Count me in on a US version. May even have to import a UK model if it does not come here for a long while.

    Euro vs American Sebos

    Cost of Sebos in US If Sebos were a little less here in the US I might own more than my Felix. I am thinking about adding an X7 to my collection, but no way I am paying anywhere near $1,100 for one and used X7’s are rare compared to X4’s.

    Lupe Pure Cordless Vacuum

    If it was $500 here in the US I would buy it, but sadly it’s not, after the exchange rate and shipping it’s over $700. Great to hear that it is a good unit and I do like the brushroll design because, it’s good for carpets and bare floors.

    Lupe Pure Cordless Vacuum

    Let us know what you think of the Lupe as you go along. I want to get this but at $715 including shipping to the US, I am not ready to take that much of a chance on a new design from a new company and I suspect many here in the US will feel the same way. I also would have like to have seen a...

    Lupe Cordless Cleaner

    Looks like a great cleaner. I might try it at $499, but at 499GBP($695) a lot to ask for with few reviews and no track record per say.

    My Journey with Various Cordless Cleaners as a Corded Replacement

    LG Kompressor For labor day I decided to pick up the LG A9 Kompressor to see how good it was compared to the other cordless sticks I bought. Off hand, while not a bad vacuum. At it's price again it is still not as powerful as I thought it would be and not a whole lot of features either. The...
