    New Sebo Vacuum Cleaner

    Dyson vs Sebo Hi. Dyson makes a nice hand dryer. The vacuums are not in the same performance class as Sebo X. Buy carpeting by the yard and throw it away by the pound. Philosophy has made James Dyson a very wealthy man! Brian

    Any Aerus News?

    My Platinum Here are some images of my unit with the Lux International Attachments. Assembly and manufacture of this unit is done by contract manufacturer Kolektor for Lux international with the motor sourced by Domel, the hose from Plastiflex and not sure who made the smaller PB-1. The...

    Any Aerus News?

    Lux Name Guys, I agree with the name change but Lux USA could only use that name in North America. We used Global Tek in other parts of the world for Renaissance branding. Probably should have sold the name for less money for AB to use on kitchen appliances and retained the ability to use it...

    Vacuum cleaner pick up tests on carpet

    Vacuum Pick Up Tests Guys, In my days in Teamsters Local 25 in Boston and working for lux for a decade here is what I learned. A good vacuum used often cleans better than a great vacuum used only occasionally. A degree in mathematics and physics is probably the most fun I would ever have...

    Lux Platinum

    Platinum The Sebo ET-2 nozzle for the Lux Powerprof is where the elbow comes from and is common in Germany and other countries. It is sometimes seen on the Intelligence too. A friend is a Sebo dealer so he had a new leftover ET-1 and swapped out the elbow from the larger nozzle for my...

    Lux Platinum Commercial Hose

    Braided Hose It is nearly impossible to get these hoses, wands and other things like SwissAroma scents for the Platinum/Intelligence vacuum unless you find an Ebay seller on the net who ships internationally. The commercial hose is from the Powerprof canister and the braided hose is...

    Lux Platinum Commercial Hose

    Sorry I forgot the 10' hose images. Both are Plastiflex-made and the braided variety is about 12" longer than standard Aerus and both are conical like a Silverado hose was. The faux braided hose is like a Riccar hose with a braided cover over it and has strain reliefs. The accessories are...

    Aerus Lux Guardian Platinum - Latest Thoughts

    Thoughts on the Platinum Hi, Some time ago I converted my Platinum over to the Euro wand, hose and attachments. Mine uses the Sebo ET-1 and I have both the Plastiflex faux braided hose and the one for the commercial canister that is about 10' long and almost identical to the Riccar Impeccable...

    Aerus Lux Guardian Platinum

    Lux Platinum vs S115 Budopo, The S115 is the replacement for the Lux Intelligence. The American version sold by Aerus is the European Lux Classic. The Lux Classic unit has the same display as the Platinum but the rest of the world gets the blueish-purple tank housing vs stainless in the...

    Lux Legacy and Platinum

    Lux Platinum DJub85, I have not been around Lux much for more than a decade. The cord material from a couple of weeks ago was more rubber-like than the Legacy I had seen a year or so ago and kind of reminded me of the cord from the Silverado just ribbed in design. The spring in the...

    Lux Legacy and Platinum

    Hi, Having lunch with an old friend today who just happened to upgrade a customer from an worn out Riccar into a new Lux Legacy. I was surprised to see a new cord material that was much more flexible and rubber-like than the previous Unicable cords they were using. Also noticed a...

    Vacuum bag fragrance

    Vac Scents Hi Guys, There used to be a product that went in the bag called VacScent and came in a small aluminum pack like first aid cream in an industrial kit, just tear and throw in the bag. Anyone remember it? It worked really good probably why you can find it any more. In the dozen or...

    Aerus/Electrolux Canister Bags

    Lux Bags Hi, I would like to try the Riccar take on the Electrolux bag. It does not really surprise me that Aerus is still pushing the blue Home Solutions bags, kinda goes along with their plastic Wal-Mart wand system they have been overly proud of through the years. I always thought the...
