    SIMPLICITY SYNCHRONY S30P

    riccar 8955 Tom, are the Riccar 8955's still available? I've always been curious to see how a clear air upright with double fans work? is the airflow way greater than a single fan?

    Hoover Windtunnel Self Propelled

    thanks i was just curious as just to how different they were set up. Also i've noticed the inlet suction tube on the SP models is on the side as the NON SP models are semi-centered. Do you think that makes a big difference as far as air flow/suction is concerned? I've read nothing but good...

    Hoover Windtunnel Self Propelled

    Hey guys, quick question. Do the Self Propelled windtunnels have the removeable nozzle piece over the brushroll like the regular NON self propelled models do? What in the Self Propelled models creates the "windtunnel" effect??
