Yes The body of the Acrylic is made of acrylic plastic, which is clear so you can see inside of it. It was designed for showing in vac shops to let people see the sealed filtration, and motor and other parts they used.

I use denatured alcohol.

I would suggest just getting a model with the electric power head, the turbo nozzles aren't the best for carpet.

I guess it depends on the dealer, check anyway. If they won't sell them to you, I will find someone who will.

I don't know for sure who came up with the design, but I do know that the Vortex motor is pictured on the Domel site http://www.domel.com/default.asp?lpage=1&p=suho&lang=en

About the motors... Lamb motors were used in the models sold up into the mid/late 90s, when the higher end models switch to using a Domel built motor that is similar to the lamb, but better built. The latest models, even the low end Plus (which was the last to use the Lamb motor) now use the...

And here it is next to my Solaris Electro Plus. You might notice that the Acrylic only goes to 1100 Watts, and the Solaris EP goes all the way to 1200, its because the Solaris EP has the newer Vortex motor, and the Acrylic has the older style motor.

Looking at if from the top.

I love my Mieles too... Here is are a couple pictures of my newest Miele.

Try checking with the Aerus/Lux branch closest to you. If they aren't helpful, I can look a few places for you.

No... It means 3 rotating fans. There is usually always a stationary fan behind the rotating one.

# stage does mean 3 fan. Most clean air motors in canisters are either 2 or 3 stage.

I have a brown Celebrity II Estate with that same hose/switch setup. I had so take the handle end of the hose apart and clean the thing in there that makes the air pressure, but now it works perfectly.

Thats a very classy vacuum. I love how quietly they run, and they're very powerful. I have a similar model with the power nozzle and I really like it. I think you will like yours too.

I must own one! I like that thing way too much. I'm curious about who sells these, and if there is a company site for it.

I think it was the bottom of the power nozzle that gave him the creeps, and it does look nasty under there.

Although the VCA may have recieved a large amount of old vacuums, asking them to send a vacuum over seas (with pricey shipping) would be a bit unresonable. If you are planning on getting a vac from the US, I can guarantee you that you will at least be paying the shipping. I would encourage...

I would much rather trade something for it. Well by getting rid of he usually means trash, but he also might use the motor out of it in the Sanitaire you see there which is in fr repair(new motor among other things).

If you read closely...... The Porta Powers had paper bags in them, not cloth. You do not reuse the paper bags as they are not reuseable.

Well, lets see..... A Riccar would be at the top of the list, but there might be others I might consider. My boss is going to get rid of it tuesday, so youd have to decide by then what you would part with.
