    Sebo canister or Air-way

    I have their best power nozzle, the same as the one sold with their most expensive canister, but with a nicer looking (to me) blue hood. The link has the picture of the hose and p/n...

    Sebo canister or Air-way

    I love my Riccar, the best part is the power nozzle with the 3 full rows of bristles and the all metal bottom. The unit wass also the most powerfull home unit on the market at the time, and probably still is. I also got the direct connect electric inlets, and would never have anything else.

    Miele Solaris Electro Plus DC

    Well, I got a chance to vacuum the whole house with it today, and I was pretty impressed. The power nozzle did a lot better than I was expecting it to. It actually did groom our carpet well, but we have a tallish loose pile carpet, I know this power nozzle wouldn't do well on plush carpet. I...

    Miele Solaris Electro Plus DC

    Well, After wanting a Miele for several years now, working at a Miele dealer, selling and servicing these finally pushed me too far. I decided to buy our last Solaris (this series was replaced by a newer series, so we aren't getting any more of this one). So far I have been impressed with it. I...

    Sebo canister or Air-way

    I don't have a Vacuflo, but I can say that from my reoair experiance, they are very reliable and well built. I do have a Riccar central vac. I really feel that the best vacuum anyone can get is a central vac, nothing comes close in power and cleaning ability.

    Vintage Vacuums for cleaning house

    Well Since I couldn;t decide what vacuums to post, here are 3. I really don't have a daily vacuum, I use them all. BUt the most used is probably the Riccar central vac. This is me with my 2 favorite Scott & Fetzer vacuums, the Kirby D80 and the SuperVac.

    Guess what i got!!

    Well I can't think of a more deserving person. I also can't believe you actually got one! This is even better than the Riccar (as much as I love Riccars) that you got. I have to say, you are one very lucky person!

    Nice Eureka upright Commercial for trade for a Kenmore canister

    That belongs to the VCCC's Electrolux Commemorative Edition. You can see the tank next to the wall, its the chrome and black one. Electrolux gave this to the VCCC. This picture is from the 2004 convention in Chicago.

    Sebo canister or Air-way

    What power nozzle are you using on the Mieles? If you are using the SEB217, then you might want to get the larger one with the headlight. Otherwise, I personally ould go with the AirWay, its a great vacuum that is built to work well and last.

    Cost of a collecting vacuums!

    I would hate to see what I have spent! The most expensive vacuum I have ever bought was my central vac for $1800.00. Most of my vacuums were free, or really cheap. But I have paid many different prices for many different vcuums.

    Best Bagless?

    I am ready for beeing criticized harshly, but... I just discovered that the Amway ClearTrak, and all of the parts for it are still available. I would say that this was the best built bagless made. They are still somewhat messy to empty, but they are made pretty well and have decent filtration...

    Best Bagless?

    To be perfectly honest I don't like any of the bagless vacuums, they are all nasty. I would suggest a Filter Queen, Silver King, or something like that. Or, there are always those Hoover and Eureka commercials with the dirt cup thing. My question, why does he need bagless so desperately?

    questions about my TriStar
