Quiet Lux Dan, I agree with you. The quietest vacuum I have ever had. Have not tried the S8 but definitely quieter than the Miele Capricorn in a side by side. I hope when they quiet the nozzle down they put as much thought into it as the vacuum itself. How is the new service manager...

New Vacuum George, If you are set on the Riccar, drop down to the Simplicity Moxie/Riccar Impeccable. First that price is high and all you are getting is 3 brush strips on the P/N and a dirt sensor. You can add the roller later for the price of a bag of dog food. Shoot ctsooner an email...

Aerus Platinum Wands Mike, The Swissaroma scents go inside the pop out scent holder on the switch side of the machine. I am told they are fantastic. I am still waiting for the part number for wands and Swissaroma and I will let you know. John, We have some new Platinum vacuums in...

Filtration/Aerus Platinum eluxca, Tough choices I know. I'm not really a Rainbow guy and I would like to have the new one. I guess you should get one of each. Rainbow is nice as there is no suction loss and the scents are great. However, the weight of the E-series makes it clunky and the...

Hose and Wands Dan, I like the hose as well but do seem intrigued with that european hose though. Very cool! How is the new job? Tony was telling me this morning that the replacement P bags are a little thicker paper than the seven that were shipped with the vacuum so no more dust...

Lux Intelligence There are new wands model HP and braided hoses on Ebay.de and also some aftermarket company makes synthetic bags. Who speaks German? According to the Lux France website, the HP model hose on the Intelligence is compatible with the classic (aerus platinum) so all we need is...

Cloth Bags, Wondering... If several of us got together and bought a few cases from Godfreys in Australia or New Zealand (Sauber Intelligence) or if anyone here speaks french the Lux France site (francepurification,com) is excellent. Who wants a homework assignment? I would like to put...

Software Mike, I think that was manufacturing-specific on the software upgrade. Brian

Platinum Upgrade Software Upgrade I forgot to mention the software upgrade in the new units kills the power nozzle powering up when the unit is off. I have not seen one of the new ones yet but I think there was one other change as well. Dan can fill us in this week I'm sure. I believe the...

Guardian Platinum UtahprideBoy, As soon as I come up with a part number for the top cover I'll get it out here. Tony said yesterday it is avail along with black matching wands just has no number attached to it. Love the stainless sticker on mine, hate the smooth top and a zillion round...

Platinum Wands Mike, I am waiting on two additional Platinum wands and a new nozzle cover with the vents that match the vacuum. as soon as I get the part numbers as well as Swissaroma scents I'll let you know unless Dan beats me to it. Brian

Lux Service Manager Dan, Good Luck in your new job. I could tell you some stories about my dirt digging days in Boston and a power nozzle elbow change on a Guardian that disabled several new vacuums lol. Make sure you never pinch those wires by accident! I think this is an exciting time...

Aerus Platinum eurekaprince, The Platinum canister along with its sisters the Sauber and Lux Intelligence is made in the EU, while the attachments and hose are made in Bristol, VA from US suppliers. There are no storage provisions for Sidekick III or combo rug and floor tool. Those that...

Lux PLatinum Bags Luxman is correct, You can stuff a ton of dirt in the style-P bag and they will almost seem like a brick when its time to change them. I too have a dog and think most will use about 6-12 bags a year with this vacuum. It is nice that the Lux bags, unlike cloth bags, are...

Green Roler Dan, Aerus in Salem, NH has two that are used and literally brand new. Call Felix to see if they are still avail. I bought the last two new ones Aerus had in the FOAS system. These were only made for the 9000 one year and p/n is 48011. The new 1.2 A Johnson motor spins it just...

Lux Platinum eurekaprince, The wands are better on the Platinum than the Epic wands on the Legacy and the handle is more sturdy. I use the attachment holder on the lower wand and it is growing on me. I am not so crazy about the adapter for the combo dusting and upol brush BUT these are...

Lux Platinum Chris, The Lux Intelligence/Guardian Platinum in made in the EU by Kolektor (sp?) since europe has been the primary distribution area. I expect Bristol to make other products for worldwide distribution as well as new products as well. Both FloorPro and Tristar manufacturing...

Former Lux Guy Dan, I did, in fact, work for Lux for more than a dozen years. I almost scored a MAJOR contract with a French company and would now be retired if the Lux commercial was similar to the Windsor Versamatic. I am toying with going back to Lux which is why I bought this vac to...

LUX INTELLIGENCE/GUARDIAN PLATINUM AND THE BRAIDED HOSE All, The Lux Intelligence was designed by Andy Eide at Aerus and I forget the engineer at Lux International AG. The development process and costs were shared by both and took six years. The reason for the delay in the North American...

GUARDIAN UPRIGHT Dan, That sounds better on airwatt numbers. Seems like they were just partnering with Johnson Electric for the brushless suction motors when I left. I am told the Guardian Platinum is a Dome motor. I too like Tristar for durability and excellent mobility. FILTER QUEEN...
