I have also considered Looking into Karcher's latest iteration of the Versamatic. I had an old school Windsor for awhile and again, it didn't quite have the horsepower I was craving for heavy cleans. Plus there were times I felt as though I was pushing a bookshelf 🤣 The newest model seems to...

So many great options Thanks y'all 🙏 I don't mind those Electrolux upright styled machines, I had a ProTeam Proforce 1500 years ago that I was gifted by my dad's wife. Supremely quiet aside from the geared belt, and it was built right here in Boise Idaho! I didn't care much for the paper bags...

Oh absolutely The X4 and X7 are the best of the best without a doubt. Incredible quality, performance, and Sebo is about the only company left who actually stands by their products. Personally I didn't love my X4 as much as I'd hoped, but I'd be willing to give one another try. My only hangup...

I keep looking at this And wondering if it's worth sending a best offer. I don't remember seeing these, but I'm a sucker for a cheap canister with variable speed and what looks like a long hose! If I were to get it, can you still get bags? And belts?

Sebo's X line Is absolutely incredible, don't get me wrong, but there was something that didn't quite hit the mark for me when I had my later X4. Maybe it was the tool usage or the automatic height adjustment second guessing me, but it wasn't my favorite. Still waiting to find a Felix however

Very pretty! I'll save that to the wishlist 😂 2 stage motors will forever be superior to single stage, and that color is perfect! Lol I did have a Carpet Pro CPU-1T for awhile but I just felt that it was lacking the horsepower I was looking for. Great suction but not quite enough airflow to...

Valid! There are still a ton of amazing clean air uprights out there to choose from, Sebo definitely comes to mind. I've always enjoyed the Panasonic style uprights just a bit more, I guess it's all preferential. There's something about the older style motors that I like better than the new...

It's a good reference For any future purchases. My curiosity is getting the best of me and I'm dying to see the trade in pile at the local dealer's office 😂 The issue I face is justifying the cost of another D4. I paid all of $20 for the SE and the most decent looking Performance Edition for...

I will have to Check those out. I'm only hesitant as I will more than likely have to drill out the remaining screws to get to the bearing. I'm not keen on cutting new threads with all the rust.

Honestly I am Fascinated that they decided to go with an indirect drive system for the fan. Leave it to Sebo to always be doing the unexpected, in the name of efficiency. The only other machine I can think of offhand that had a belt driven fan was the elusive AirWay RugMaster. That is if I'm...

Hey all! Let me preface this by saying I'm not sure if this machine is from the '90s or not, I know that the twin energy line was very popular during the '90s and into the 2000s, but I'm not sure on the exact date of this one. Most of us are familiar with Sharp's vacuums, and I feel that they...

Hey all, I'm seeking some advice on what to do with my Rainbow D4 SE. I spent hours trying to get it running correctly, I cleaned the fans, casing, and greased the lower bearing. Unfortunately my lack of knowledge prevented me from greasing the center bearing, and I didn't figure out til after...

At any rate I appreciate you humoring me and catching me up a little bit. Hopefully whoever took over will do right by him, as old Kirby parts are getting very uncommon. I guess I'll have to jump on it and get the parts I need soon!

Someone catch me up? First of all, I love the classic line, and definitely need to add another classic three to my lineup. Second, and I hate to hijack the thread, but when did Kent pass away?? I ordered so much stuff from him and plan to order some stuff for my Legend II soon ish... I can...

Well then The fan on my PD must be original, as it's a 7.8 amp motor 😂 I've had good luck with the last couple of Elite platform machines I've owned, both the 5.0 I foolishly gave away and the PD sound fantastic. The bearings in both are still very happy so I don't have to worry about servicing...

How different is the sound Between the original fan and the 20 blade? I've noticed that my power drive supreme has a softer sound than some of the earlier Elite models... And I remember seeing a couple of replacement fans out there that kind of had a wave design. Is that the updated version?

Luxlife I was seeing something on the ratings that said 79dB? Granted the meters that they use are probably very sensitive and calibrated down. I'd imagine it'd be close to a Sanitaire, maybe a bit quieter because the bag is reinforced?

For what they are I am not disappointed with these newest models, from what I've seen so far. We all wish the 90s models would make a comeback, but out of the budget options on the market today, these aren't bad. They sound like a Bissell Power force so I'm assuming they're using the same...

Panasonic has A very rich history, and as I've said many times, they produced arguably some of the best machines. They're almost all quiet, powerful, and if maintained, last forever. I have an early 80s model that'll probably run for another 30 years if I keep using the HEPA bags. Now, I don't...

It seems like There's too much side to side play in the brush roll itself. I'm wondering if a couple of small washers would take up that tolerance and stop the vibration of the brush shaking side to side?
