I suppose it's possible, However it kind of defeats the purpose of trying it out before you buy, to truly understand what you're getting.

I guess I just don't understand.. My local vac shop only carries a select few models of the Riccar brand; no Brilliances or Radiances. Isn't each shop obligated to sell most of the line-up, if not at least the TOL of each machine?, or can they choose to carry whatever they'd like, assuming...

@ctvacman That 15+ years is definitely a good peace of mind. Does anybody have any experience dealing with Ray Saterwhite in Va? He seems to advertise the brand quite a bit on youtube, and seems like a decent guy to buy a machine from.

Cloth bags all the way.. With some machines, cloth (synthetic (hepa material) bags is the only option offered. They definitey allow the vacuum to breathe easier, providing stronger airflow and better overall performance it seems. They also retain the dust like no other. I used to use cheap paper...

Good point.. I didn't know their electronics were made by another company, I'm guessing that for me, it wouldn't be a good idea to buy this machine as preowned, since I literally would probably have no warranty to fix issues like this. You should be fine though, they probably have the one of...

How in the world does a mother board fry so soon on such a relatively new vacuum? I don't get it.. I was contemplating on whether to buy this one or not.. but seems like it might have a little too many bells and whistles, good luck with your machine.

Japy897 just curious, Any idea how much the Lux Guardian Upright runs by chance?

Hey all, Today when vacumming with my Riccar Vibrance, I noticed something of what could be a possible air leak. It happens at the point where the hose cuff meets the hose handle which connects into the aluminum wand. You can definitely hear and feel air in this area (as the vacuum is on and...

I agree, the Prima seems small but mighty, thanks for the info

Good point.. Never thought of it that way..Would you say that the Prima is phasing out the full sized canister line? That one isn't a bad choice though.

Does anybody know if Riccar's canister line is due in for an update anytime soon? (Not including Prima)

WOW! Looking great.. I agree, this is quite an update for sure.. NICE!

So rumor has it.. That the new Radiance R40p is already out?!? Is this true??? Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for all the great information guys.. I knew that the Radiance was due in for an update, but never knew it was already in the works. My favorite is the R30, and Riccar vacuums in general. I couldn't agree with you more, Dysonman, the Riccars are very classy/elegant machines which I love...

Ok, so I've been really debating on whether I should replace either my Kirby G3 or Hoover Self Propelled (going on 10 years as my daily driver vac) with either a Riccar Radiance Premium, or Brilliance R30. I'm just confused on some of the features, and whether or not it's worth to spend close to...

Thanks Colby I went with the Riccar R20UP pictured above in red.

Just a very big shout-out and thanks to Tom for all his patience answering my questions about the machine. I decided to order. I'm excited... my first Tacony machine.

Thanks for your input Colby, I really like how they have updated this one versus the older Vibrance Models, I heard that it was redesigned to help increase airflow, amongst many other things, which is a major plus. Looks like this might be a good replacement for the older 8955 model.

I'd defniltey like to hear Tom Gasko's opinion on the new Riccar R20UP. I'm definitely considering this same, exact machine. I've been having trouble reaching him at the factory outlet during those times lately.

The 7 series definitely seemed like a true workhorse, I'm guessing this one wouldn't be any different, I love how they put a longer hose for sure. As far as the lifetime belt is considered, they are definitely starting to incorporate this in all of the models. I've never had a...
