The Maytag sounds terrific and I'd like to see it, but I can't find it anywhere in Southwest Ohio, and have run out of people to ask about it. Fussnecker is offering the Retriever for $599.95. Bob told me the hose would stretche to reach a 9.5' ceiling, which should be sufficient for me. I don't...

Yes, I did go to Fussneckers, the Far Hills location-that's Bob's. I'm not sure Salem is still open (not in the phone book) though the listing is online. They have a shop in Springfield I thought I'd call. There's a Simplicity place in Wilmington. There are also places in Cincinnati.

I've had a disappointing/frustrating round of dealers. The first dealer, not my favorite, but the one closest to my house carries Riccar, not Simplicity. We'll call it Bob's. I described my situation (just as I had here), and Bob told me I needed an upright because it would do a better overall...

Interesting about the lack of lights on European models. That's how I feel about many electronic controls (like automatic height adjustments), just something else to go wrong. If I hadn't really noticed how much I appreciated having the light when I vacuum underneath something, like beds, I...

The Sebo D4 looks like a great canister--lots to love about it, though the lack of headlight might well drive me nuts. Other things being so well-thought out, I'm surprised it's missing. The Simplicity Wonder and Riccar Prima might be real contenders--I'd really like to see either one of them in...

Thanks for all these suggestions--we're expecting a major storm tomorrow, so I'm researching online, and hoping to be able to shop locally Monday or Tuesday (more likely based on the forecasts). I'll check the Simplicity canister offerings, especially--one shop had none, hopefully the other has...

Like so many before me, I'm looking for the perfect vacuum, and need recommendations. There seem to be so many different configurations, and I'm in a quandary even at the most basic level--upright or canister, though I have definite ideas about features I'd like to have and find useful. My home...

Just a quick update...over the weekend, I was offered a Bissell Proheat Pet (mfg 2012) by someone who is combining two households and has two carpet cleaners, but only needs one. This one was the more convenient to give me, not the one she most wanted to give away (LOL). She wasn't even sure...

So two votes for the Hoover F5914-900 Spinscrub. I'll take a look. Thanks. I had and have been cleaning the red filter screen on the bottom (as well as the dog fur from the non-spinning brushes), which is why I think I've been reasonably happy with this V2 for as long as I have. The reason I'm...

I've spent most of the day reading through the forum--what a wealth of information! I've got a list of models to check out. But I do have a pressing need which drew me here as well, and hope folks will chime in with their thoughts. My household has carpet which needs regular washing. I've been...
