Tom One of my regular customers has this exact same machine which she brings in for a belt every now and then. She's sort of on the verge of trading it in, but since it works perfectly, she sees no reason to get something new. Maybe that's why they're hard to find?

Welcome to the club Mike! I love your collection, but then again I may be a bit biased as I am a dealer for both Miele and Royal.

I sure wish this machine was still in production. I've had so many people disappointed in their Floormates asking for something more substantial, but there's really nothing else on the market right now in that category.

I mean, how much more crummy than THIS could a Hoover Vacuu Trust me, it gets worse. The current Hoovers on the market (Savvy, Fusion, Windtunnel 2) make the Elite series look like an engineering masterpiece. I can't count how many times I've had one of the current Hoovers on the bench and had...

Charlie.... I can be reached at the store at (417) 881-3400, and the best time is usually between 4:30-6:30 Central time. Anyone else who wants to give me a shout is more than welcome as well. Can't wait to talk!

P.S... I'm so glad you liked the article!! Next month will focus on the dual motor machines and the Dirtmaster.

Guy Is your wand the one labeled "170" in the pic below? If so, then I can get parts 180-200 together, but I can't order them seperately. They're not very expensive at all, somewhere around $8.

Seamus, The tool lid does seem a little thinner on the 5000/S5 Series, but they've been bulletproof so far. Here in the U.S., we did have a run of machines that had cordwinder problems and some issues with the elbow at the machine end of the hose. Those problems have been taken care of with...

Congratulations Seamus! We had that machine in the U.S. as the Silver Moon. It's beautiful and I know you'll love it!

Reggie, Miele makes their own motors. Where did you hear/see that they were made by Domel?

Okay let's try this again .....

Miele Adaptor Sandy, If you find a Miele attachment that you want to use on a standard American hose end, there is a solution that's a little akward, but works. There is an adaptor that is packaged with every new Miele that was meant for parking the bare floor tool on the side of the machine...

Congratulations Charlie! I don't understand that small dusting brush either. In the 90's Miele had a perfectly good full size brush, and then went to this one. It can get frustrating when you're doing a lot of dusting at once, but the advantage is that the suction is so concentrated that it...

Amazing. I have never seen a Tradition that nice! Congratulations Patrick! This particular model of Kirby brings back so many memories for me. The janitor of my early elementary school used one of these for the rugs by the doors. There was a particular set of doors that my bus passed by as it...

The owners picked up hot coals from the fireplace with it, then threw it outside into the snow after it caught fire. After all this though, it runs PERFECTLY. The damage was just cosmetic.

Yes!! We did in fact have this model in North America. I lived in Las Vegas for exactly a month, and I had one just like this, except it had the L-Shaped power nozzle. Tommy, I was also intrigued by the speed switch controlling the PN, too. When I moved out of Vegas, I left the vacuum behind...

Duane You'll love the new series. Be sure and try out the new floor tool and show it to customers. They love the way it swivels. If you want to do a REALLY impressive demonstration, put a bunch of rice on the floor and have the customer clean it up with that new tool. Instead of pushing it...

The new S4's and S5's... Do not have the Auto-Reverse feature anymore. That was the most useless feature Miele ever had.

arrrrgh! Let's try this again...

Well After working seven days a week for a whole month, I decided I just didn't feel like going to the store today, so I will take the picture of the machine on display tomorrow. I will also include pictures of my current Miele display. Here is another pic of my vintage Miele, though.
