    Thank you for your opinion!

    Electric extension hose

    There has been something that I've been thinking about for quite a while and wanted to share my thought with you people. It's that extension hoses have been introduced for some brands but practically all of them are non-electric, save for some of those for central vacuums. There is an extension...

    Different attachments for different kinds of Tacony models

    Dysonman1, thanks for the info, and I think there should be an update on the Riccar and Simplicity websites by displaying more kinds of adapters in the shopping list and adding more info on the use of Wow tools on uprights. And N0oxy, did you mean to tell me that accessories for the Miele's and...

    Different attachments for different kinds of Tacony models

    Hey Dysonman1, I checked into the Riccar website and it says that the Soft Sweep floor tool can get connected to a clean air upright but doesn't specify whether these uprights are of the R20 or the classic bodied kinds. I already know that there's an adapter that allows us to use 1 1/4" tools on...

    Shop-Vac and Turbocat combo

    Hey, tell me if the adapter for Sebo power nozzles (like the one in the page I'm linking to) would fit into a wand that only accepts 1 1/4" attachments. http://https//www.the-vacmaster.ca/sebo/sebo-powerhead-adapter/

    Different attachments for different kinds of Tacony models

    Even if the vacuum cleaners from Tacony (Riccar, Simplicity, Fuller brush, CleanMax, Maytag and Carpetpro) are good, there's something that worries me and it has to do with the compatibility of accessories with the different kinds of models. It's like, there are attachments for the Prima/Wonder...

    Shop-Vac and Turbocat combo

    Hey, N0oxy, I'm pretty curious about making a motorized nozzle compatible with a straight-suction canister if we don't have a central vacuum system. I hope someone could post a picture (either in this or another thread) about a Shop-Vac or any other straight-suction canisters with one of the...

    Shop-Vac and Turbocat combo

    So you think that a Kenmore or a vintage Electrolux canister with a power brush is better than a Shop-Vac with the Turbocat head?

    Shop-Vac and Turbocat combo

    Hey, tell me if a Shop-Vac wand (the 1 1/4" kind) could fit into a Turbocat nozzle. If it does, how effective would a Shop-Vac canister with a Turbocat head be at cleaning carpets?

    The larger turbo head from Chapman boutique

    All in all, it does a decent job on the carpets although it looks like it has asthma when it cleans the carpet in the living room. I do believe that a canister with a power nozzle would do a better job, like what the shop employee at Vac Shack in Ottawa told me, as I mentioned in another...

    The larger turbo head from Chapman boutique

    Here are the other pictures of the turbo brush. As with the smaller one, you should be cleaning the interiors after each use.

    The larger turbo head from Chapman boutique

    Another day, I posted a thread about the smaller turbo nozzle, but now, I'll talk about the larger one. Some days after I bought the small turbo brush, I got a larger one for the carpets. It wasn't like the one you see in the picture, it was a model similar to the one numbered TK 284 from...

    Small turbo head from the Chapman boutique

    Now here's something I find interesting about this brush. It's done in a way that the same parts of the nozzle could stay in contact with the surface no matter at what angle am I holding the handle. People should be designing upholstery nozzles with such feature. In conclusion, I love this...

    Small turbo head from the Chapman boutique

    I bought two turbo nozzles at the Chapman boutique (the small one was bought at the end of November or the beginning of December). In this thread, I'll talk about the smaller one. At my apartment, it's up to all of the tenants to keep the stairwells clean. The stairs are carpeted and I'm...

    HOPELESS ACCESSORIES/TOOLS

    I have another crappy attachment, which is a floor brush. It didn't came with the Dirt Devil set (which I learned from a Dirt Devil website) but while my grandmother still had the vacuum, she most likely just bought the floor brush or someone gave it to her. You could see that the brush strip...

    Riccar Premium Plus SupraLite

    So no wonder they don't make a lightweight upright with 3 rows of bristles on the roller. But I was mentioning the addition of the metal soleplate only to make the product more durable, not to make it clean better. It's true that a steel plate would make the item heavier but what if we added an...

    Riccar Premium Plus SupraLite

    Hey, what if there were a Premium Plus SupraLite from Riccar which has 3 rows of replaceable brushstrips (instead of 2), a dirt sensor, a metal bottom plate, maybe a longer cord and perhaps an extra year of warranty (with all the rest of the features being the same as the Premium SupraLite...

    the best nozzle for cleaning hard floors

    Then Should I have trusted the shopowner who recommended me to get one of the nozzles with bristles?

    Compatible Tacony bags

    So Tom, does it mean that the type F bags for the older SupraLite models and the R10E are compatible with the Speedy Maid modeled FB-SM? And what does ­"ULW" stand for?
