Thanks for the response Spencer. I have been using ours daily but I wanted a second opinion from one who own's one. I think I smell a vacuum purchase coming up now:)

We do at my shop. We only charge about thirty dollars. With a bench grinder it does not take to long to sand it out and then buff it to a mirror like finish. Call some of your local shops and see if any of them will offer that service for you.

Mark, Rainbow advises to not store the unit with the main unit on top of the water pan, that way you do not cause rust or premature damage to the unit, and you are allowing the water pan to completely dry. It is recommended after each use to rinse out the water pan of all dirt and debris. This...

Spencer, you have a very nice collection there and you do take a lot of care in those machines as they all look stunning. I was wondering if that is a Dyson DC59 you have there with your DC24? I have been spying their new handhelds at work and I am really interested in acquiring one. Just wanted...

Be careful with expecting Shark to come through on their warranties. Sure you can buy the parts online from them, but who wants to spend $70 on a cleaner head when all they need is a belt? The number of times I have had to turn people down at work because there is not dealer network for Shark. I...

Dan as always, your home looks amazing, it makes me wish I was there now. All I have is rain, and more rain. Enjoy your day.

Tom that has been one of my favorite Simplicity models to date! I love my 7850 and it gets used just about all the time. It is one of my go to machines that never lets me down.

Thanks John, I am always forgetting that height adjustment knob myself! I always have to hunt for it afterwards, or let my cat find it a few days later.

To replace the bulb, I take off the bottom plate by releasing the two clips that are right behind what look like where screws go. Then by taking a flat head screwdriver and CAREFULLY prying the clips that hold the hood onto the machine. Releasing the clips and prying upwards will release the...

Apparently what Tacony is doing works for them. As for common sense, yes I have that oliveoil, I am not sure if you are referring to me or not, but yes I do have enough sense to wipe my rear every time I use the restroom. I as a dealer have never had a supply problem from Tacony, unlike other...

John, your home and collection look amazing and stunning. There is a lot of hard work there.

I am trying to be middle ground here, but it makes sense to do what Tacony is doing. Now I do not have all of the education that some more experienced members may have, but if I was Tacony, or had a company the size of theirs, and was getting ready to manufacture and launch a product that may...

Even on cheapie machines there is a markup. When I worked at Sears I could scan a product and see how much Sears paid for that product. Either way it is business I guess.

You know, I did a service on a Bissell Powerforce today, not the Cleanview Helix, just the plain Jane one. Everything turned out fine and I went to test it, the motor was not as loud as I thought, it kind of just hummed, and it cleaned pretty well. I guess for the money these are not that bad.

Mark I want you to know that I am sorry if I upset you in any way. Just please know that I felt offended by the comment you have made. I will be honest, if I could have the prices that you guys have across the pond, that would be awesome! Sadly though that is not the case. I will say that yes we...

Thanks sptyks for clearing that up, Mark I am not talking about Kirby and Riccar, there are also the price that we pay for Miele and Sebo and Dyson. It has always been this way, and yes I will happily pay these prices for these products. I will also happily sell these products for those prices...

That is the best demo! The agitation on these machines is truly top notch.

Mark I am sorry but your reply is about the third I have seen about your remarks towards the amount of money that American's spend on vacuums and I find that to be a bit of a slap in the face. Now it seems like to me that in the UK and much of the EU, the cost of products has tended to be lower...

The new models are truly stunning. We stock the Simplicity at work and my favorite demo is where I turn the unit on and let the unit pull itself across the floor. Not even an Oreck can do that.

I wash out the basin and separator on my Rainbow. I clean the separator daily and give the basin a good soaking once or twice a week. As far as the hose, once a week about a cup of water gets sucked up to clean the inner walls of the hose. As far as debris, I am assuming you mean clogs and such...
