    My New Aerus Vacuums

    I have the Miele canister S2 for three years.... Been using the bags that are specified for it, and even used the 3M aftermarket ones, spotless inside. I even wipe my finger to check every so often. Maybe your Capricorns are just bad luck for you. I use the blue 4 ply Home Solutions bags for my...

    "Uh, mom, we need a new vacuum cleaner"

    This is the result of someone not changing the bag and/or filters.... poor maintenance

    My New Aerus Vacuums

    I think maybe the suction is just too much and the bags cannot handle it.... You really need those cloth layered bags, they just seem better constructed. Miele makes the best bags- hands down. Hope they resolve the bag issue for those of you who have the Platinum.

    Above floor cleaning on an upright, at what cost?

    The Miele upright s7 makes one of the best on board hose and wand set... Riccar is pretty good as well. Click and go

    Above floor cleaning on an upright, at what cost?

    Its definitely an added plus, especially for people like myself who have lots of carpets and do not want to drag around a canister. Its very convenient, because you do not only have floors, but the on board attachments allow you to clean small spaces, under furniture, in crevices, cobwebs on...

    My New Aerus Vacuums

    The Sebo Felix is much better... you get probably one of the best groom marks from a Sebo Felix not the X5. I have the Guardian Upright, it does a great job, even though its a bit dated in design and the off board tools are very inconvenient, and so annoying- I def would not go with the x5, it...

    My New Aerus Guardian Ultra

    I think when you save them to the computer you need to rotate the uploaded picture 90 degrees. This happens with most iphones I think... nice vacuum though!

    Miele S8

    George CT The miele has much better filtration and build quality than the Kenmore, if your not into using an extension cord, then I think the only canister with a very long cord is the Sebo D4. Perhaps, you should sell your Miele and Kenmore and get a Sebo D4? I agree with you that the hose...

    Miele S8

    cue003 which electronic hose is 7 feet? or model? It also amazing me how many people on here will bash a brand, just because it does not meet their cleaning requirements. If your home is so damn large and long cords or hoses are an issue, get a central vac!

    Miele S8

    George CT not everyone has a 2,000-6,000 square foot home. People with smaller houses or condos like miele and they work out very well.... they updated the model. I will agree they should have made a longer hose, larger tools and perhaps a little longer cord. But their main focus is on...

    My New Aerus Vacuums

    Yes, it has more filters and they are expensive. a bag and two hepa filters... I tried the platinum out and think its awesome, but I didn't jump to buy it because I am awaiting to see the supposedly new upright. I also did not like that you still cannot collapse the wands. I only have a 1500 sq...

    My New Aerus Vacuums

    I think the older Miele's up until only a few years ago, did have some problems. I think they actually went the way of China for while on some of their line. I think most of the line today is fairly solid. Aerus has had issues with their product line as well. I told you about the air leakage...

    ORECK

    Absolutely agree here, I like the looks of a Dyson and it seems cool, I had one for short time, but realized soon that there are other vacuums that pick up so much more dirt than a Dyson... my Aerus upright and Miele canister blows it away.

    Miele S8

    The miele S8 is suited for larger homes, you can add an extension cord like you will have to with most canister vacuums, if you don't want to switch more than one or two outlets. I like the machine, super quiet, durable and really deep cleans. You might want to also compare it to the Aerus...

    My New Aerus Vacuums

    Anything is better than a Miele, no that's your opinion. I would take a Miele over many machines out there.... people also love Miele, there a tons of online reviews of satisfied customers. I hardly see any on Aerus, nor do many people out there know what Aerus is yet....I have family members...

    My New Aerus Vacuums

    Dan I agree with a lot of what you said, however, you view the situation of a vacuum company or product in the "how it is" scenario, I look at things as "what can be" Not saying Aerus doesn't do well, but just voicing my opinion on what I think would make them even better going forward. This...

    My New Aerus Vacuums

    electromatik thanks, I agree, we will see in time what comes of the new upright... I am just baffled by the operations of this company, the CEO and top people just seem to have absolutely no clue on product development, innovation and competition. The products are good, but the way they are...

    My New Aerus Vacuums

    I highly doubt every person walking into Aerus is asking about the new models. I don't think it would affect current inventory....

    My New Aerus Vacuums

    I think that's a very bad idea.... I am a potential customer who maybe wants to buy one. It would be smarter for them to tell me, hey when they come in, I will call you.... And of course we take trades. Not good business practices IMO, I'm tomorrow's sale.

    My New Aerus Vacuums

    So on my lunch break this afternoon, I stopped by my Aerus dealer to inquire about the new upright everyone here is talking about.... needless to say they do not know anything about it! :-0 Mind you this is the same place I purchased my Guardian Upright from a year and a half ago. I noticed...
