    What vacuums are you hoping would come out in 2022?

    @kirbylux77. I'll add a little here about ozone. I used to be in sales for ionization and ozone purifers....the ozone is NOT harmful when produced BELOW 50ppm (parts per million), they are very effective. I use my machines regularly even today ( getting rid of odors from cooking, cigars, stale...

    Where to buy Royal Type H bags in Canada?

    i contstructed a HEPA bag to fit it....I think I used a type O. took some glueing etc but work nicely. So true what dysonman1 wrote about the suction going down with paper bags.

    Vacuum Cleaner Diversity

    your(OP) question began a thought trail for me....that went all over the place! haha. I don't have a single 'favorite' vacuum cleaner to use....as I have many like you all too.

    The Classic III Has Landed!

    human. did you ever consider this way so that you can keep the stylish and cool Sani-emptor? I posted many pics of it 3 years ago. HEPA bag....pain to change it...but if you're a collector....one doesn't use it all the time so its usefulness will last a good while.

    I used the Avalir top case....I thought of using a Diamond....but where I was doing this with a buddy helping....I didn't have that....kinda wanted the original production date still on the casing too....so I used the original. my buddy had removed the switch etc from a non working Diamond...

    Avalir 2 x 2 speed

    I finally got around to modding my Avalir(2017 red/black)...but I was torn on whether I'd change this one or my Sentria 2. I prefer the look of this late model Avalir but prefer the handle of the Sentria ( big hands prefer larger handle). Unfortunately , the metal was cut too far and the 2 speed...
