The only real similarity is that the Felix has a height adjustable handle (to 3 levels of height) swivel joint and removable PN to make it a shoulder vac if you buy optional shoulder slings or if you want to change over to the parquet hard floor cleaning brush floor head. Personally I can't...

Thanks. There's plenty more scans on here and from other members.

Well there's something called Sound proofing which a few of the German brands fit. I know that the E1 Airbelt I have has more whoosh of air than whine.

Oohh very nice!

Thats good of them to send out a new wand to you. Time will tell on whether it will last but you should keep Dyson informed so that they can make any necessary design changes.

That's a real pity. What has Dyson said regarding the part?

Notice the lack of carpet every where. Yes it is a cute video though.

I'll stick to my SEBO Felix then!

If the motor is behind you and located at your behind / base of the machine then only the noise of suction air would be with you. Back pack vacs are great for industries like open spaces. I have been lucky enough to board aircraft early enough to watch cleaners with back packs but the machines...

I have had the thought from the moment that these hand helds appeared on the market on how damaging they will be to hearing. After all, if you are lifting the vac upwards to clean ceilings or anything above your waist, the motor is coming nearer to your ears than a conventional smaller hand held...

Hi Gilly, Welcome to Vacuumland - nice to see another UK person. I will forward your info to those who are interested and await their replies.

That's interesting to know. I have a half moon shaped hard floor brush which has a reversible side with fixed polishing pads on it. Can't be used on carpets though and I find it is too flexible and not all that controllable.

Here's me old VK130

Things are up and down at the moment. Scotland has remained, the rest of the UK want to leave. At the moment general public are confused by the Mickey Mouse antics displayed by the politicians. Back onto Vorwerk talk, the adaptor arrived today from Amazon UK as did a suction combi floor head...

Yes but even with wheels, hard floor brushes seldom suck up dirt. Loose crumbs maybe, but dust is a no-no. I spend more time picking the dust off the bristles than what goes up it! Having wheels helps going over undulations that actually SAVES the bristle strips from bending outwards. I've got...

Since the appearance of synthetic/cloth bags, I am not that bothered by the lack of ones available for certain vacs I own. Im lucky in a way that the ones I do own can all take cloth bags i.e appear to have bags available. If someone gave me a whole box of free genuine paper dust bags for some...

Miele's filter design hasn't really changed from the 1990s, even perhaps late 1980s. The S500 series had the exhaust located above the motor with the bag as did the S240/S290 series.

Good tests. I have reused a SEBO Felix dust bag after brushing it clean and find it will work again. However, the bag can also be washed, dried and installed again.

Well I'm in Scotland, so we're remaining! As far as I know Numatic have never offered 2000 watts but I hear what you are saying.
