Hi Eveyone, After learning this cord is very rare I figured I would offer it up to someone needing to complete a Kirby 562. It’s in great condition, flexible no tears or patch work. I’m not really certain of the value of a cord like this, I know they’re very uncommon to find seeing as it only...

Hi Gman, that’s so kind of you I’d love to have it! I’m not far away at all I live in Sacramento so it wouldn’t be any issue for me to drive down and pick it up. My email is [email protected] if you’d like to email me privately we can set up a time for me to come grab it. Thanks so...

I wish I was closer it’s one of my dream machines I’d snatch it up in a heartbeat

I’m curious if anyone here has any experience with the older sequoia center vacuums, they pop up here in the Sacramento area very often? From what I’ve been able to find the company is still around and their modern units are just rebadged MD units. Their older units on the other hand don’t look...

The reason the bags pull out when you open it is intentional. When the collar design first came out and the bag wouldn’t halfway release consumers were prone to pulling out the entire bag dock, to prevent this Miele made it so that the bag would be halfway released so that when the customer...

It more than liklely is the cord winder if you're not getting any power at all. I worked as a Miele tech for 4 years and have repaired many different models. In this time I only had to replace a board inside of the canister 2 times so its very unlikely a board has failed. Cost of a coard winder...

I second vacuumdevil about trying to stop into the Md factory. I’m from Bakersfield as well, it’s right off of 7th standard. I’ve gone there a couple times to pick up parts for my stealth head. Everyone there is super friendly and helpful As for central vacs performance I know a lot of people...

The Tristars filtration won’t be nearly as good as the sebo’s or mieles. I’d say if you want the absolute best in filtration the Miele Marin would be your best bet. Between the e3 sebo and Miele Marin id say that the Marin will be a little bit more user friendly and refined than the sebo but the...

I second what others have said either a sebo or Miele would be a good option. I work at a super high volume Miele dealer and it’s very rare that they come back for issues not caused by customer neglect, think over pulling cords or installing the bags wrong. The compact c1 turbo team with the...

Hi thanks for the response, I can order a new one for about $100 so maybe like $40-50 if that works. Thanks

So I was recently given a sebo x4 with a toasted motor and figured I’d ask here and see if anyone had a used one they’d be willing to part with.

Ah I was worried that might be the case as I’ve got a 154, I’m thinking it’s going to just end up being parted out. I’m addition the having a bad motor the customers at some point also removed the cord winder so trying to get the entire unit back together would be way to much money. Plus I’ve...

So I’ve now ran into the issue of replacing the motor, a replacement vm3 style motor is close to $200 which for this machine is way more than I’m willing to put into it. However the 2 stage motor from the renaissance and epic 8000 is much cheaper. While these machines are the same style of body...

It definitely was the motor brushes. The left one was worn down to the spring, I’ll probably just end up swapping in a new motor since this one seems to have lived a hard life and was covered in a good layer of rust. It’s strange only one of the brushes got worn down the other still had a decent...

Hi everyone, so I just got an Aerus guardian and it has a rather strange issue. The main vacuum motor won’t turn on. The switch on the hose turns on the powerhead as normal but the main motor won’t activate. The plug light and bag light function as normal so I don’t think it’s an issue with the...

I just got the new belt in last night and ran it and was very happy with its performance, I’d say it cleaned just about the same as the seb 236 but I definitely missed the swivel neck and having a headlight on it. I also wonder if it was a Miele made product lit reminds me very much of the...

Hi everyone I just happened to come across an absolutely Mint Miele ambiente with the seb 226 head. Mint really is an understatement of this vacuum there’s only one small chip in the paint and the inside of the powerhead was spotless. I was trying to do some research into this powerhead but...

There’s also the Hoover hush tone 15inch model. From what I’ve heard it’s a great vacuum and at only $318 right now on Amazon it’s a really good deal. Plus since it’s clean air you don’t have to worry about breaking a fan and it has a lifetime belt so the only replacement item would be the bags...

Hi everyone, I’m about to start rebuilding the motor on a two speed rainbow and was wondering if anyone knows how to remove and reinstall the bearings for the motor. Like if I’ll need a bearing puller or a press to get them back on. Thanks

No problem at all. I believe they have different motors actually, the Titian has a slightly lower powered motor compared to the s8 line.
