I feel my Eureka is overall better than a Windtunnel, it seems more gentle on the carpet, has more airflow due to it having a relatively short and unrestricted airflow path, the machine is really quiet - I can nearly talk normal toned with it on, the bag system is top fill vs back fill which...

eurekastar I think I read about your issue with the barefloor setting on the Boss while strolling through the archives. Interestingly the bare floor switch on mine doesn't feel like it's always about to break off - I haven't had any issue with it.

You could do the Tempo if you were looking for a half decent machine under 100 dollars, otherwise another low priced machine would be the Eureka Boss 4870 Smartvac, they're better cleaners than they look and if you look even closer it has a whole separate air channel for the nozzle, and uses a...

Been emptying out our basement and this nasty NASTY rug was uncovered, so I couldn't resist the temptation and decided to vacuum it....and make a movie of that too. I didn't want to use my Sanitaire's or the Kirby since there were things on the rug that could wreck there fans. So I used my Boss...

No Never happened to me before. Probably least prone to static would be my metal Sanitaire, since it's metal is grounded through the cord.

Vacuumfreeeke I never settle. I was just checking to see if I could get what I wanted locally. I already got the best prices located online. While at that vacuum store they had the Windtunnel self propel bagged, it seems more solid than the bagless for sure, but of course it still was clunky...

eurekastar I did notice how easy it would be to convert to ST when I out of curiosity took apart the fill tube on my SC888, that one even has the spring clamping down the fill tube, same as what's used to hold down the F&G bag. On a similar note: I went and visited a local vacuum store today...

eurekastar I have the Sanitaire S634 which is pretty much the same thing as the SC678, it has the wooden brushroll with half beater half brushes. I like having the brushroll with the beaters even though the brushroll still isn't as good as the VGI that came with my SC888. I do really like the...

tolivac I've dealt with a couple bagless Windtunnels, you are right...they are very nasty dirty machines to deal with, worst part is the ever-clog filter. and an update to what I've been deciding....New competitors are in my lineup, and they're tough ones too.....Sanitaires. Now it's the...

Vacuumfreeeke My 2 Sanitaire's are my best cleaning vacuums for sure, especially the SC888, it has the newer ST style bag system so it's very easy to change bags. Just today I went over to my Grandma's and used my SC888 on her whole house of new carpet that had never been vacuumed before, it...

mb1981 Thanks for confirming that the Guardsman is still pretty much a Convertible, I figured it HAD to be anyway. I've never gotten to use a Convertible....yet, so yeah I pretty much don't know what one's really like. For me the closest thing to that design that I've used would be my...

I've decided I want to get a Hoover vacuum, a brand new one. I've narrowed it down to either getting me a Windtunnel self propel bagged model, or a Hoover Guardsman C1631 commercial vac. I've gotten to fix and use a bagless Windtunnel self propelled before and my impression first thing was...

tolivac lol it was Hoover vs Hoover, and Hoover won......... The Guardsman anyway. But then I had mean highly competitive cleaning monster Sanitaire come bangin on the door of my brain.... LOL
