I have the red version of this. I would call them fairly uncommon, at least they are now. I am also looking for a brushroll for mine, if anyone might know where I might be able to find one.

I will only use commercial type carpet cleaners, like the Rug Doctor. I don't feel that any of these new Eurekas, Bissells, or Hoovers really have the power to do it.

I am curious about the this model. I have never seen the hose before, all that I have seen had the gas pump style handle with the sliding controlls on the front. The canister also looks different from what I am familiar with.

For belts, just give me a geared belt that I won't have to think about for a long time.

Thats a strange, but very fun feature. I like how it makes certain vacuums really stick out.

I like the looks of it, they use a very nice power nozzle. I would love to try one sometime.

Miele has a pretty good turbo nozzle available. I have never had a canister that used a turbo nozzle though. My Miele's power nozzle has a similar brushroll, and it does a pretty decent job really.

the power nozzle is the same on the Simplicity and Riccar, but the central vac wands have a different electrical connection for the hose than the canister version, as well as a more Miele like locking tab, the wand will only fit a Cen-Tec hose that has the correct metal tube on the end. THe...

The power dial. The camera made the black look foggy.

Pictures are here! This is it with the power nozzle "parked" on the back.

The muffler is installed by connecting the pipe to each end, like any other fitting, just glue the pipe into it.

Miele bags seal themselves closed as you pull them out of the vacuum, so no dust comes out. Many others have either a plug that you can snap in, or a sticky flap that will cover the opening. I agree, bagless vacuums tend to annoy me. But of all the bagless, Dysons are the most hygenic and easy...
