    Ibaisiac's Greatest Hits

    The hose being unavailable is an incorrect statement. I have ordered them from Miele as recently as this morning.

    Ibaisiac's Greatest Hits

    The Miele Universal Upright Could I please add this? The reason is that this Miele is underappreciated, undermarketed, and underestimated. This vacuum cleaner will do it all, and the video I've attached is the only one in the world that I know of that actually demonstrates its capabilities...

    The YouTube sensation ibaisaic

    As the individual who started this thread ...I simply don't understand how anyone could infer something negative about Roger's character or manners from his videos. These videos are the best reviews I've ever seen. His finished products are 40-50 minutes. I've never done anything like this...

    Miele ART

    Does anyone have a Miele ART vacuum that was briefly produced a few years ago? I really need one, but I want one either new or in like-new condition. Let me know. I'll pay whatever the asking price is.

    The YouTube sensation ibaisaic

    Something has happened I've spent twelve hours at work today taking care of patient while I'm trying to recover from a broken femur myself. The pain I'm in is beyond anything I've ever endured in my life. I'm taking some time to post additionally to this thread because something is amiss. I...

    The YouTube sensation ibaisaic

    Big difference Roger doesn't seem vain at all. He seems friendly and competent. I understand that expertise like his expressed with perfect linguistics may intimidate some people, but that doesn't make him vain at all.

    The YouTube sensation ibaisaic

    Thanks for saying hello Roger, you've earned every word of my positive feedback and more. I'm glad you're here. I know it must take hours of work, not to mention a lot of money in purchases, to make a quality-dense, high-yield 50-minute video. Having understood that, I hope you'll make more...

    "Sweeper Miniatures"

    Wow, amazing. That's unquestionably the best collection of miniatures I've ever seen.  I've seen a few of those pieces, the more common Electrolux banks, but none of the others.  I'm guessing that took many years to construct.

    The YouTube sensation ibaisaic

    I've watched a number of videos from a person from the UK who must be the best ambassador for vacuum cleaner collecting since Stan Kann.  His YouTube name is ibaisaic, a mnenomic for the extinct Hoover slogan "It beats as it sweeps as it cleans."  He takes the time to do detailed...

    1956 Sunbeam Dual Deluxe

    That's really something! I didn't know Sunbeam had set any real landmark accomplishments in vacuum history. This was fun to learn about.

    Simplicity Freedom Premium model S10P

    Very nice. I haven't tried the new models yet, but I have the prior version that just was replaced, and they're amazing. I would expect anyone to be really impressed and consider one to be more than worth the investment.

    Simplicity Freedom Premium model S10P

    The older version I have the TOL Freedom (had the TOL Riccar RSL5 but gave it to my friend Jonathan when he moved), and even the older design with HEPA bags didn't leak at all. I suppose the new ones are even better, but I never had an issue even before the improvements were introduced. The...

    update...Got to see my first Riccar canister today.

    Either one You'd be fine with either the Pristine or the Immaculate. The Immaculate has the same size power nozzle as the Pristine, but the Immaculate's pn has three rows of bristles, compared to Pristine's 2 rows. The Immaculate also had a dirt sensor on the poewr nozzle that works very well...

    Has Kirby Significantly Improved Since the G3?

    Kirby vacuums are addictive, I agree. I really like the new F bags with the locking tabs. You can put that bag adaptor onto any fill-tube except the Tradition, and it's worth it.

    Capricorn S5981

    All Miele attachments are interchangable. The Blue Moon, which I bought NIB and still have, was packaged with the SEB236, which is still the current TOL power nozzle. They aren't hard to find because they're still produced. You can use every wand and attachment from the Capricorn on the Blue...

    TTI and Oreck

    The XL21 was a good machine. Didn't care for anything prior to that or any of the lower models (all of them; that was the TOL). The Freedom and Supralite are better vacuums. I have the TOL models with metal rollers, HEPA bags, lifetime belts with protectors, and I have all of them a lot...

    KIRBY AVALIR

    Improvements I wish Kirby would make I use Kirby machines all the time and love them. I'm glad they didn't make the new Kirby into a machine that isn't really a Kirby. Two things I wish Kirby would do, and apparently haven't in this new model, are to sound-insulate the motor unit a lot better...

    Riccar 'Immaculate' or Miele s8 'Uniq'

    Immaculate congrats! I have the Riccar 1800 and Simplicity S38, which are the precursors to the current models. They're great. I love them. I also have the Miele Uniq. Also a stellar machine. You ant go wrong with Miele or Riccar. I always steer people to Riccar, and everyone is happy with...

    Would whoever bought!

    If the remark was directed at me... I don't have to meet a person to know that his practices don't promote friendship. The insuation that one must meet another in person to have a legitimate standpoint for commentary on his actions is baseless. The Pupek name is so widely despised because...
