    Seen these vacs at goodwill

    That’s a great price, I’ve been over paying on eBay. The metal body luxs are my favorite to refurbish, I ve been resisting the urge to get a golden Jubilee with a good 50th sticker.

    I watch him occasionally, I must have missed the video!

    Vacuum store visit

    I have a Heritage 84 and a Sentria 2. I never thought of your polishing technique! I bought a bench buffer, and it works well, but it’s cumbersome to use. The best thing I have in my arsenal is the Flitz buff ball for drills.

    Royals are usually the only quality vacuums that I used to find at my goodwill.

    Sebo X4 Difficult to Push

    I do have the hepa filter, I’ll have to call some dealers and see if they’ll send me some or order them. I will say that the genuine paper bags don’t seem bad, but I still prefer the cloth.

    Vacuum store visit

    I will give an update on my X4 repair, but I did get to try the Dart, Softcase, and Felix. The Softcase was nice to use, and the display wasn’t overly loud. The dealer told me that they had several Softcases that were overly loud. I think that if they added a longer cord and a handle power...

    Sebo X4 Difficult to Push

    I remember you mentioned that there are hepa bags available for the healthcare, are they genuine?

    Sebo X4 Difficult to Push

    I was cleaning a lot of hard floors, the day I noticed that it was harder to push. Those are the parts that Mike from Sebo thought it could be. The dealer that I bought my X4 from, was strongly against the Boost models (even though he sales them). People always comment on how good my carpets...

    Worst vacuum.

    I was on one last bagless kick about 8 years ago, and bought a Navigator lift away. I thought it worked well, other than the lack of cyclones. I haven’t used it in probably 6 ( maybe once a year I turned it on), and the motor certainly doesn’t sound great. I really like the Dirt Devil Deluxe...

    Sebo X4 Difficult to Push

    Yes, it is the blue one. I never assumed that I would have to take it in this soon in its life, hopefully it’s not a lemon. I will be making the 45 minute trip to the dealer on Friday, so I’ll give an update shortly after. I plan on testing out a Dart or Felix, I want to see how they feel...

    Sebo X4 Difficult to Push

    I would hope that the brush roll is not worn out after 8 months of moderate use. Yes, many favor the G. I really did not find that my X was hunting very often, and I live in a 79 year old home with uneven floors. I personally thought the X was the best vacuum that I have used. I also have...

    tv series vacs

    It’s been a while since I seen the episode, it was an earlier one in his house. He also pretended that he was a Kirby salesman in S2E1 to get a fugitive they were looking for.

    Sebo X4 Difficult to Push

    Well my theory on the clogged bag was not true, my x4 is still difficult to push. I called Sebo and they said that it needs to go to a dealer to have the belt or board replaced. I will give an update on the solution, it should be covered under warranty on my 8 month old X4. I still highly...

    tv series vacs

    ALF: Dirt Devil broom vac is often seen in the laundry room, and a Hoover convertible appeared twice. Family Matters: Hoover dialamatic, Dirt Devil Feather Light, and Hoover celebrity is seen at one point. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air: Jeffrey often uses some sort of a Eureka Bravo type of...

    Worst vacuum.

    Sharks lack a proper cyclone, and really I would say that anything bagless is the worst. I really dislike cordless vacuums, so I also voted the v12. I strongly believe that Dyson never tried their non ball models in a real home. They absolutely cannot get under kitchen cabinets, cannot get along...

    Dc07

    Well I should have added a photo, but the first dc07 has been fully cleaned and refurbished. The clutched Dysons are definitely the most painful belt change I have ever done! I would not recommend the generic blue bristled brush, after painfully fitting it, the machine had an awful vibration. I...

    My goodwill hasn’t had any vacuums in years, eBay has been my source!

    It has so far! I’m using Beko 1987’s video to guide me along!

    Dc07

    Well I ended up with two Dyson dc07 all floors, not many would dream of this. Long story short, I ended up with two as I believed that the first seller was not going to ship my order. The second one is in better condition and the owner claimed that it “lost its suction over the years.” This dc07...

    Dyson dc07

    The older Dyson are also easier to work on! I had the pleasure of working on a dc40, the wire that gives power to the motor head broke. That model never went back together very well, and the replacement wire only lasted 6 months.
