    How to figure out the age of a Miele S311i?

    Traced your serial number w/ Miele and it was a dead end. Unusual. Should be from late 90's to early 2000's

    Two prong "pig-tail" versions, Thermax AF-1

    Sharp knife, deep breath, two cuts. Make it fit. You can't break it if it doesn't fit, but you might be able to make it fit. Good luck with your vac ~

    Hoover Air Revolve Canister Vacuum - $34.99...

    Try this: https://www.directtoolsoutlet.com/locations/ (store locator) They have lots of stuff not on the site and each store seems to have different items. Just call them and ask. If you're near a store, you can pick it up if they have it. If they don't but another one does, they can...

    Miele c2, c1, or u1

    All so different ... best to test drive them each first to see which fits in your hands best. Choosing one from the Homecare series, as mentioned above, gets you an impressive warranty. Whether it's an upright or tank/canister, you can find one that has what you need. If you still can't...

    Miele U1 observations

    Our older model demo does not do this however the newer unit does. I assumed that it was to force the user into the "correct" suction setting for carpet. It is possible that this is (now) "normal" just my .02 ~

    ROTHO Twin TT Water-Filtration vacuum by Robert Thomas LP

    I like the stickers! I forget how much I used to like stickers as a kid. I would stick them on just about anything ... kinda like I was "leaving my mark" I should buy more stickers and stick them on things, like my vacuums ~ Oh ... "no" and "no" ... thanks for sharing!

    Miele S143 stick vacuum won't change speed?

    Normally I would guess the Electronic Unit is bad, though you mention that the switch is clicking once so I checked our demo unit. It clicks audibly twice - once for each speed. I'm wondering if the doohickey that hits that second switch is not, for some reason. I have not had one of these...

    Today's Dream Machine Purchase Sponsored By AT&T

    Sounds like it's time to bojack it. This one from Shark might need some alterations, but it's a starting point. Good luck with your vac ~

    Compact c9 detailling

    That bumper can take a beating and just about any chemicals you can throw at it. No need for heat (unless you've gotten your hands on a brand new bumper that has never been fitted to a machine) as long as you follow the steps mentioned above ... or below. Put it back together with the bumper...

    New Roomba Self-Empties, and The New Dyson 360 is Heuristic

    Watching, perhaps; but no mic for audio on the RX2, and no recording. Would be a pretty boring hack though. If someone wants to go clean the house for me, more power to them. If I were home, I think I'd hear it arrive to watch me ... Really, I worry little about those things. I just love the...

    New Roomba Self-Empties, and The New Dyson 360 is Heuristic

    The RX2 comes in two flavors. The more expensive "Home Vision" variety allows you to view one of the cameras images (used for navigation) on an app on your phone. Very freakin' cool to watch and to control "from anywhere" It's a $1200 robotic spy & vac ~

    What to do... Miele S238 i

    That can be tricky, but not impossible. If there is a label under the handle, near where the hose connects, and it is legible, you may be able to locate your exact hose model which could help. Rebuilding the hose is sometimes possible using parts from a donor. A lot of those hose assemblies...
