Rumor has it that the shampoo system will be entirely different on the Avalir. Can't give anymore details other than that.

Dial-a-matic If I'm not mistaken, I think Panasonic purchased that design from Hoover. Its nice, they still use it today for the bulk of their upright machines. It is such a tried and true design.

Dyson is a pain to change, especially on the DC07 and 14. Lately, I've been bugged with the newer Eurekas where you have to stuff the belt around the shaft first and then roll the brushroll downwards and install it into the machine. We do Hoover Self Propelled machines daily and those are a...

The PN 1 is not a very deep cleaning nozzle- it was Electrolux's experimentation phase with a nozzle. The PN 2 (and Pn4) were designed for the carpet of that era (shag). The new Lux Power nozzles are fairly nice. They aren't overly deep cleaning, but they do have a nice chevron style brush...

Just bad odor- change the flat wide belt and your self propelled feature should work.

You got a great deal... That's WAYYYY below cost...even for a reconditioned machine. You got a great deal, my friend!

We recently became Riccar dealers. So if you need Riccar/Simplicity parts- let me know and I can get most parts for them.

I like the Wind Tunnel Cyclonic power nozzle, but nothing beats the Wessel Werk.

There's not much out there that can beat that Wessel Werk power nozzle on the Oreck canister.

The smell.... We see those in very regularly. Check and see where she purchased the machine. Some stores received batches of Hoovers that had more electrical smell than others. You aren't the first person who has mentioned the smell- we get customers in for belt issues who always ask about...

The Hoover Ground Command line is made in the USA. That's TTI's latest "comeback" for Hoover's commercial line. Royals are still metal, just with a little bit of a squeal-ier motor.

If you have a filter queen, try placing the blower end of the hose on the Lux hose. Blow each end and see if anything comes out. If that doesn't work, the broom handle suggestion works well. Another thing we do at the store is taking a screw placed in a piece of molding. This can be used...

They were bought out... Because a bigger company came along and offered money. I used to work in corporate funeral service and the corporations would buy each other out, dissolve facilities, and buy private owned places out all of the time. It's just part of life. TTI is run like a...

Yet... I'll have to get in touch with the other TTI warranty location (30 miles away). Between the two of us, we service an area with a population of about 767,598. Mine being the largest area (Columbia, Northeast Columbia, South Columbia, Forest Acres, Shandon) and his being the smaller area...

Great suction, fairly nice hose and wand...really great power nozzle (Hoover Windtunnel). I'm not sure about the longevity- we sell a good many of those and haven't had a single warranty issue.

Also...... If anyone wants pictures of various Bissell and Hoover models, Saturday is our typical "dumpster day" where we take all of the traded in machines during the week and dump them off. Any good machines are serviced and resold and ultra rare vintage machines are saved for the...

Another very good machine is the Royal RY7910 Extractor. Two counter rotating brushes, nothing overly complicated in the design, and a 3 year warranty.

Canadian Feedback???!!! From my Canadian partner in crime...wow, my grandparents had one like that. Its a pretty cool looking vacuum, eh? We should get something like that for the store, eh? Fred you lucky duck- that machine looks gorgeous, we are planning to take a thrifting and antiquing...

Kyle, is that the new Nutek stuff TTI keeps trying to sell me???

Just out of curiosity, I'd like to hear some opinions on the Bissell Steam vac series (ProHeat, etc). There's a Hoover steam vac thread underneath and some of you really sing the praises of the Hoover Spin Scrub (also my favorite). We get a ton of Bissell machines on trade constantly. In...
