I must have high filtration, I have bad allergies and I’m severely allergic to dust mites. I don’t go crazy about the filtration, as long as it’s a good brand of vacuum, it has good filtration. My allergist recommended using a vacuum with a hepa filter. I really can’t tell the difference between...

Miele claims that is a feature to get the bag out more easily, I think it’s a scam to get people to ruin their vacuum and buy a new motor! Miele does not have a warning that says the bag must be reseated when opening the cover! Notice on their new Guard, the pre motor filter is now a screen...

Indeed, I have to vacuum the hose when I’m done!

They must have changed the dock slightly. My Panasonic made Kenmore never has dust in the bag area, when using cloth bags.

The Riccar is the only one so far that made a mess with the powder. The Riccar is also the only vacuum I have that spits everything that isn’t dust or hair. I’ve never noticed leak in any of my machines, the X4 sometimes when you open the bag door. I always have to dust the top of the Duo...

I chose to use the Spirit to pickup the Duo powder, since the bag is near full. The Spirit is awful for picking up powder, it went all over the body of the vacuum, I still must clean the spirit. Both my Spirit and Healthcare had a relatively full bag, guess I should have went with the Healthcare!

These are rather interesting! I would probably prefer pulling out my main upright or canister.

I forgot to mention the washing machine! I’ve known that they made one, but I never looked into it. I do know that they weren’t on the market very long, did they sell them in the US?

I agree! Both Shark and Dyson are doing this, they have both expanded far past badly designed vacuums. Both companies now sell: Fans, hairdryers, other hair devices, air purifiers, and who knows what will be next! I forgot to mention that Dyson is also an audio company too, with their new...

I really don’t get the trend, people are now too lazy to mop a floor! Riccar has also released their Chinese import copy of this. A quality microfiber mop does the job for me! A machine might be better for tile or slate floors, such as the Lindwash. Not to mention that you have to hold the heavy...

I believe that my vacuum interest was initiated by my mother. She would let me ride on the vacuum when she would clean (usually every day with a border collie mix). I would also help my grandmother when she would vacuum the large anoint of carpets and floors in my grandparents home. My...

The Miele seems to move better, possibly because it’s older.

The two Wessel Werk nozzles do differ slightly. The Miele has a bit more depth to the nozzle, but the Sebo is slightly wider. The brushes are arranged differently on both, as well as the suction inlet. Yes, the scratch on the Miele drives me crazy, I was prepared to replace the nozzle. I will...

I’ll have to count them next time, but I believe there are about 6-7 speeds.

I will definitely say that the D4 has more suction at the floor when when compared to Miele S8. I got the Wessel Werk twister nozzle and it is harder to push than when using the Miele. I found that the D4 with the suction decreased by two presses of the minus from max, is equal to the Miele on...

You would think that Sebo would give the choice of the et 1 or 2 on their flagship canister that is marketed towards spacious homes. I do wonder if the et 2 is as nice to use as the et1, my 14inch Lindhaus is very nimble so probably.

I do like that the basic nozzles will go over rugs, the twister nozzles will not. I’ve seen that the Sebo wheeled nozzle will go over rugs. My Lindhaus wheeled nozzle won’t go over rugs, it skips and lifts.

I’ve done the main floor and carpeted stairs today, and the D4 certainly excels! Using the extension hose to do the stairs makes the biggest difference, and the turbo brush is at full speed when on the D4. The X4 does not have enough power to spin the turbo at full speed, or even at a useful...

I hate a loud upholstery tool! The Riccar Spirit has the loudest tool I’ve experienced.
