    Dyson DC07 without a clutch?

    If you do find one, don't let it go. They're impossible to find now. I'm constantly looking for them to give away to other collectors because they're so rare and they are also fantastic cleaners.

    Stick vac comparison!

    One more thing about the Dyson The Dyson has two speeds. (I don't know if the others do or not.) If I were going to use a machine like that to vacuum sand from a carpet, I would use the high speed. I also agree about emptying the machine. The cup has a maximum fill line on it, and to stuff...

    Dyson DC07 without a clutch?

    Blue Dyson Dyson made a DC07 Original in the same blue as the Carpet. That model may still be available new. I'm not a fan of the clutches, so I don't keep up with developments of clutched models.

    Dyson DC07 without a clutch?

    DC07 Carpet I own one. It doesn't have a clutch. It has a round brush roll, not a helical one. It is the DC07 Carpet. I bought it new.

    I am kinda thinking of a Brand New Vacuum.

    New Aerus Guardian Upright I have one. I bought it a few months ago and love it. The suction motor on the new model pulls 394 air watts. The canisters pull 439. The Epic uprights pulled 200 (or 250, I can't remember) and the Lux 4000 increased the airflow by 50 air watts to either 250 or...

    Electrolux Handheld?

    The machine in the link That Little Lux II is the newest model available. It's white, and the outlet for the bag points straight back instead of toward the inboard side of the machine, whereafter the bag itself made a sharp turn rearward. These machines don't impress me, unfortunately. They...

    Oreck

    XL21 Like some of you, I used to think that Oreck couldn't make anything worth using. I changed my mind when I used an XL21, which I promptly bought from Rick. I don't think there's any substitute for using one of those vacuums if one's mind is made up that no Oreck is effctive...

    Cheap Guardian Upright on ebay

    This Lux Guardian upright looks just like the one I have, but it has a buy-it-now price of $279. I got mine at dealer cost for $660, so if you want one of these, this is a great deal. I love mine, btw. This upright is missing the HEPA filter on the side, but that should be an easy...

    There's a bronze and white one on ebay I'm bidding on now. The photos don't show the left side, but the right, front, and back views are pretty good.

    Miracle Mate Platinum

    Verdict? So, is the verdict to avoid it or buy it? Pick a particular PN over another? I'm looking at two different ebay auctions now. One has the pistol-grip hose, and one has the gas-pump hose, with their respective PN's. The vacuum seems like an amazing machine, but I want the best...

    Miele Capricorn

    Color! I love the color of the new Capricorn! If I weren't so fond of the blue Earth, I'd be wanting a machine like yours.

    Miracle Mate Platinum

    Hello, everyone. May I ask anyone who owns or has used a Miracle Mate Platinum to review it here for me. It looks like a pretty impressive vacuum. Thanks!

    Sebo Felix Classic Pics

    White The reason I'd go with white is that my C3.1 and two power nozzles that go with it are white, and I'd like to keep all the interchangeable accessories matching. I like the other colors Sebo makes, too, but mismatched attachments drive me nuts (I know, I know...), so I want to keep...

    Now here's something I've never seen before!

    Patents Charles, I'm not as familiar as I could be with this general vintage and variety of vacuums, but it's apparent that a number of vacuums have copied the Compact design, in this case right down to the point of being a perfect replication. Has there never been a challenge to the...

    Electrolux AF on ebay

    This looks like a pretty nice AF. The beige pain has a few minor scrapes, and the gray looks almost perfect. This looks like it is a collection-condition vacuum. http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Electrolux-Vacuum-Cleaner-Model-F-One-Owner-/150603735006?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2310ae9fde

    black and decker collector

    Yes, pics, please! I don't know about the OP, but I'd LOVE to see pics of that machine. I never took my uncle's apart that I can remember. I don't quite see how that machine could be fan-first, but you have one and I don't, so please show us whatever pics you feel like taking.
