Good for you, Gareth, you have credibility and a lot more "clout" than the average consumer.  Miele makes some of the best appliances on the market in my opinion and the problem you experienced is something they need to address.  If it happened to you, someone who knows vacuum cleaners from an...

This topic was raised in another thread recently.  (see link below)  Apparently, Miele changed their bag design and at least for some models there is no longer a flexible laytex gasket on the mouth of the bag, and the consequent lack of a tight seal allows dust to enter the bag chamber.  I had...

Very cool! That lift-off bare floor brush is an amazingly clever idea I have never seen before.

backwards bags........ It must be time to get an eye exam, lol.

Brandon, why is that bag on backwards?

My Kenmore memory In the early 60's my aunt and uncle had new wall-to-wall carpeting installed and bought what I think was the TOL powermate cannister at the time.  It was a light brown and off-white color, had a two speed motor, and a clever slot on the side for storing the crevice tool.  The...

Here you go, Ben My 515 with black wheels and 10 blade fan, all original.  Serial #196540

You're welcome, Tim The Electrolux liquid wax will work very well.   I just prefer to use paste wax since it's closer to pure wax, not a bit of wax suspended in a lot of petroleum distilate.  Which, btw, brings up another point.  Do this when you can have the windows open all day.  The fumes...

Spray buffing is a proceedure used on commercial vinyl tile or terazzo.........NOT for wood floors.  MopNGlo is a self-leveling acrylic finish which doesn't respond to buffing.  (think laytex paint)  For WOOD floors you need to use a liquid or preferably a paste wax.  To use your Electrolux you...

They ARE in the business of raising money for charity.... and, if they can get that kind of money for "junk, more power to them although, I suspect merchandise with prices that high will sit there unsold for a long time.  It all comes down to how much people are willing to pay for something...

G-series attachments show up in the thrift stores here fairly often.  In fact, just a couple weeks ago I saw a complete G3 shampooer kit for just a few dollars.   If I come across anything at a good price I'd be happy to help you out.   Neil

Sears is selling Kirby?  What finally convinced Kirby to move beyond their religious belief in door to door sales?  That's like hearing news that the Pope has become a Methodist!

Tom, that is absolutely stunning!  It looks brand new!

short cord That cord is from a kitchen appliance like a waffle iron, percolator or something else.

Tom, that trio is fabulous!  Seeing all 3 of those vacuums I remember from my childhood is a treat, but the 260 especially.  Our next door neighbor had that one and I had all but given up hope of ever seeing another one.  I just might have to take a side trip next time I'm up north at the farm. ...

Great job, Trevor!  That cleaned up really well.  How does it perform?   Neil

It's a G for me, forever and always.

I half wish I hadn't blown my budget already with the convention.  That thing would look mighty nice alongside my Turquoise G.

Wow, a tan G with the power nozzle!  That would be a keeper in my book!  You're finding some really great vacuums lately.

Looking for a Golden Crown? You and I both!  I too have fond memories of it from my childhood.  I would love to add one to my collection but in all my hunting around I haven't come across one yet.   I have a hunch it would take some real sweet-talking and probably a lot of something else as...
