Alongside vacuum cleaners and trains, another one of my childhood interests has been car washes. I've always found them interesting for some reason. Of course, I'm also interested, to a lesser extent, in car wash vacuums. Now, I've never actually used them that much, just on one occasion, and...

I had this dream a few days ago. From what I remember, I was on a trip with my brother and possibly my dad to see my sister in another state. We were going through a what I think was a Best Buy (or some other store with a blue color scheme), when we went through the vacuum aisle. To my shock...

About a year ago, my school held this sort of "giving Tuesday" thing, which basically consisted of packing up clothes to send to the needy, making gift bags of toiletries for veterans, etc. At the end we were instructed to help the janitor do various cleaning tasks if we didn't have anything...

PanasonicVac The point of the fog test is to test how well vacuums can filter and seal allergens that are 5 microns or bigger (particles that you can see with the naked eye). If it can't filter 5 microns or below, then what makes you think it's going to filter anything smaller? Sure, air...

Here are some examples of what I'm talking about (the middle one is from my old school)

PanasonicVac First of all, you're using my old thread from 2 years ago about why I despise dump-out bags. That thing was hot trash, and I don't agree with a lot of things I said in it. Secondly, maybe VacuumWars isn't the most accurate or scientific vacuum reviewer on Youtube, but the simple...

Lesinutah As I've said, I don't want to just use a Heritage ii bag setup on anything other than a Heritage ii. That DS50 doesn't look right with it on. The one on that Classic Omega shown in that video is the exact setup I'm talking about. It has its original bag, but has an added zipper and a...

PanasonicVac Why is it that when people are recommending vacuums for homes here, they recommend bagged machines, but for commercial use, dump-out bagged machines are recommended here, and the argument of them filling up quickly and bags being expensive is used?? (not saying everyone does this...

Lesinutah I specifically said that I did not want to just use a Heritage or Tradition bag on a dump-out bagged machine because it'd look weird.

Lesinutah Okay?... And?

Lesinutah That's just a Heritage ii outer bag. Are you saying that I should take the bag ring from that an stick it on the machine I want to convert?

Lesinutah It's still not working. It's just showing me a page with the text "1(1x1)". It also did that when I tried opening up another Ebay listing on the top picks thing earlier.

Lesinutah The link doesn't work.

Thatwasherguy I never knew Kirby made outer-bags that took a competitor's disposable bag. That goes without saying that's very strange. Sewing a zipper on an outer bag doesn't sound that hard, though since I've never sewn anything before, I wouldn't know. Could anybody help explain how to do so?

tolivac I don't want this to turn into a big war over if they're bad or not like my last thread on the subject, but I simply don't care how much dirt is picked up by a commercial vacuum in a day. I'd rather burn through bags then be content with a poorly filtering setup. I also don't believe...

KirbyMan65 I wouldn't want to do that. I'd want something that would properly seal the dirt away so that I wouldn't come in contact with it.

Lesinutah Where could I find myself a "516-heritage model with 3 ring adaptor for emtor" that you speak of. I'm not as knowledgeable on pre-tech drive machines. That being said, what's stopping me from taking that Heritage 1 emptor and putting a Heritage ii or newer fill tube on it?

That thing reminds me of Egon's Proton Pack from Ghostbusters Afterlife lol

I can't stand dump-out bags. I think they're a relic of the past that should stay in the past (are you listening, Sanitare/Bissell?). That said, I like certain dump-out bagged Kirbys, mainly the Sanitronics and Classics. However, Because they utilize dump-out bags, that means that I wouldn't...

Here are mine So far, I've only got two, though I plan on getting more in the future. The first of them is my Nacecare Henry HVR160. I want to say I got it around 2021 after I spent months saving up for it, and I gotta tell you, it was worth every penny. It's quiet, durable, good filtering...
