    manual or automatic height adjustment for uprights and power nozzles

    The other thing of course and slightly away from topic are carpet washers - suction only or roller bar and after all, they don't require height adjustment. I suppose if they did offer manual height adjustment, the brands could be in danger of being sued given the three processes of pumping...

    manual or automatic height adjustment for uprights and power nozzles

    Not necessarily so, Matt. sorry but I disagree. It depends on the pile of course but also how the carpet has been laid in the first place and if it hasn't been finished and nailed onto the sides of each part of the hall way or walk way - or wherever it has been placed - to allow "give" when the...

    manual or automatic height adjustment for uprights and power nozzles

    With manual height adjustment I have noticed that the pattern of the wooden floors underneath can sometimes leave their imprint on the carpet above. This is down to the force of the carpet pile being constantly cleaned with a manually "locked height" brush bar. What most people don't realise...

    Given that the adapter is bigger than 32mm at one end, there's every possibility the end part has already been slotted into any one of the tools and slid into one of those storage slots.

    The other thing is though Numatic vacs are very versatile and adaptable. They use 32mm fittings so you can use any other attachment from another brand. I liked using my Electrolux pet hair tool with the risor visor with the Numatic as well as having to upgrade to a Nilfisk 32mm floor head...

    Cat vs Vacuum Cleaner

    My friend has a bengal cat and the cat is very intelligent. He's a male cat. He only miaows in a very strange accent when something is wrong. When she was about to leave home for work, the cat kept pawing at her feet and miaowing strangely as he walked towards the closed kitchen door and sat...

    Tellingly when I asked SEBO why they don't return to hiding tools under a flap on their cylinder vacs, it is is because of the way lids tend to fall off if the vacuum loses balance etc. Frankly I dont mind the tools at the back of the Henry. Vax have also done something similar with their...

    "It's interesting because, in the U.S. we'd see a product company try and make a product seem, and in some cases actually BE, more sophsticated." Our British perception of simplicity has changed over the years due to constant American influence. Small fridge freezers have become big large walk...

    Cat vs Vacuum Cleaner

    She is very cute but I wouldnt imagine that she likes being shown something that she can't be in control of grabbing onto. Not least for the fact that it is sucking in air.

    Numatic could well be making the compact model with a smaller dust bag. Also in response, or rather to back up with Benny has said, an example of another model I owned springs to mind also by Numatic - the Charles wet and dry model. I owned one for a few years. I adored the power and I...

    Oreck Introduces the Elevate Uprights

    It may well be over priced but in Europe it may sell well based on the fact that its lower powered and meets EU regulation.

    “I think if they took the iconic Henry tub, as he looks now and rearranged the inside ONLY, people would not care.” Its not about the customer - if the base of the unit fails to cradle a dust bag cleanly and doesn’t impede the suction air flow, why change it? “As for PNs, they should offer the...
