    Tandem air machines

    I totally understand the concept, and the need on the older riccar models. My rad 10's suction at the hose is pretty lousy when it's extended. The symmetry I looked at was a clean air only model. I think Tom said in an earlier thread that they were close to 100" of w.l. Don't misunderstand me...

    Tandem air machines

    Yesterday and I was at a local tire shop getting an alignment on my truck. And wouldn't you know it, there was a high end vacuum shop next door.

    Congratulations. It's a great piece. Its the only vacuum in my collection that my wife will use. Although, sometimes I wish she wouldn't. I can hear the canister banging into walls and the power nozzle slamming into baseboards.[this post was last edited: 8/10/2015-17:52]

    Also, you're right about the dealers, not being up to date with product. I went into many shops inquiring about the wonder and prima, and nobody knew what I was talking about. I had to show them the thread Tom posted a year ago about the wonder.

    I ordered The prima from Tom when they were first released. Like Tom said, it is a suction monster. The most impressive thing about it is the noise, or lack of it. It is the most quiet vac I own, and I have a central vac also. The wow tool, is the best hard floor cleaner I've used. The air...
