I'm no fan of TTI but I'm not sure how they have diminished the Oreck product line. As I understand it, the Oreck was always woefully underpowered. Some even referred to them as electric carpet sweepers. So this new "David" vacuum is quite the upgrade since it uses the much more powerful Tacony...

That is a strikingly beautiful machine. Very nice!

The Centralux still uses the Legacy style handle and wands. So maybe the new machine will give you either the option of Classic or Legacy accessories. I'm not sure why they didn't just use the Legacy style handle and wands on the Platinum. They are longer and feel a little sturdier. Plus it...

The writing is on the wall for the uprights too. Why sell a corded machine when you can sell a cordless machine that will need to be replaced in a couple of years or at the very least the battery replaced frequently. Far more recurring revenue that way. I wouldn't doubt if they move to a...

I have about 60/40 carpet/tile. A house filled with nothing but tile is dusty and echoes. Not for me. Central vac with adjustable power nozzle is a great setup for me. The only people I've known who disliked their central vacuum cheaped out and only bought an air driven carpet nozzle. What did...

I agree that the power nozzle motor sounds different/quieter. And it does look like the Guardian Ultra in new colors in the background. Maybe they are just going to offer two canisters. The Guardian Ultra and the Platinum. Maybe they will offer a choice of power nozzles like Miele does for the...

If you don't mind a half day or so of construction then maybe a central vacuum would work well for you. You can have one installed for the price of a top of the line canister or upright. No canister to pull behind you and you can switch off the power nozzle and go from carpet to bare floor. Also...

Aerus or Activepure, whatever they're calling themselves, should buy back the Electrolux label for their vacuums since AB Electrolux of Sweden is no longer selling vacuums in the US. That is a name that much of the population still associates with quality vacuums.

Dyson is better at marketing than building vacuums. They don't have to build a quality product. They just have to convince the masses they need the newest gimmick. And Dyson does that very well. They release new models every year or so and everyone runs out and buys it. I still have an iPhone...

To each their own and as long as you're happy that's all that matters. But personally I see a huge difference in quality between Dyson and Sebo. The Sebo will probably give 30 years of service properly maintained. I wouldn't wager a fraction of that for the Dyson. And I think bagless is...

It depends on the type of carpet. I go to LA Fitness and I really hate that some of the clubs use an old style fan-first upright to vacuum the glued down commercial carpet. It definitely isn't necessary. A straight suction backpack vacuum like some of the other clubs use does the job just fine...

The old style Dirt Devil/Royal hand vacuums definitely did a nice job on stairs. They should bring them bag with a HEPA bag.

I paid ~$450 for my EBK360 kit and that included the hose and all of the other attachments.

Looks like a great and quality product. Although the price is a little eye watering. But if you only have a retractable hose system then I guess that's what you're stuck with. I think too big a deal is made over conventional central vac hoses. It takes me about 15 seconds to loop the hose and...

The EBK360 is a very good power nozzle. I've had no issues with it and is very durable. The Sebo is nice but watching repair videos it looks like the plastic gets scratched and etched very easily. I'm sure it still performs well but some look like they've been through hell.

Would it be possible to apply the hairspray in the shower? That way avoiding the situation all together.

I wouldn't trust that guy to review a paperclip. There is no evidence to support any of his claims.

I believe Rainbow's model immediately prior to the SRX was the best machine they had built. The power nozzle was definitely better since they finally put on a geared belt and moved it to the side instead of the center. I can't believe they put it back in the center on the SRX. Very dumb. Go...

Growing up my parents had an Electrolux Ultralux and when they built a new house it had an M&S Airvac central vacuum. I have a Miele Marin and new house had a Nutone central vacuum. It was a piece of junk. Replaced with MD unit and EBK360 kit. I wish I could use my Miele 236 power nozzle on...

Agreed vacuumdevil. My sister is an intellectual property rights attorney. You could have even used a screenshot from Disney with no issue. You can even play a clip so long as it is kept very brief. Lots of prominent YouTube creators do it every day.
