I've had my Windsor Sensor S12 vacuum since 2023, and while I love that I finally have one in my collection, buying the cheapest one available on Ebay was probably not the wisest choice, and you'll quickly see why... Now, it's a used commercial vacuum, so obviously it's seen some use and wear...

BagintheBack Vacuum smells aren't something I think should be worried about unless your machine filters badly (ironically, pre-E2 Rainbows don't filter well and have next to no odors). I've kind of just accepted that even the best filtering machines of mine are just going to have them, and that...

Centralvacs1928 I was joking about wanting to get one of those. Even if I did somehow have the money, space, lack of neighbors to complain about noise, and circuitry for such a system, I've never been as big into them as the coin-op versions. That said, they're kinda cool, but not my cup of...

Oh I'm certain that they're loud, probably as loud as a central vac unit. Though, I'm wondering if maybe I could put sound deadening around the motors/motor area.

PanasonicVac They basically are, they're wood-paneled, overpriced Shop Vacs that are much more of a pain in the you know what to use than a normal Shop Vac. I'd say water filtration vacuums are a complete scam. They're often advertised as being extremely well-filtering, when oftentimes that...

Centralvacs1928 I see, so I hopefully shouldn't have an issue plugging in one to an outlet in my room, or my dad's workshop, right? And you're also saying I COULD get one of those car wash CVs, and NOT blow up my house trying to run it?!?!?! You know what, I just might go rob my local car wash...

dylanmc Glad to know we shared the same kind of suffering. :] Seriously though, who at Rexair thought that using two separate hoses was a good idea?? I guess somebody in Cadillac, Michigan was a sadist. Also, you could absolutely use a different bare floor tool with your Sebo. There's the...

dylanmc Mine dad's D4 is especially horrible, as it's one of the ones that has a completely separate hose for the power nozzle that you can't use with the attachments, which begs the question as to why it even has an on-board tool caddy. If I were to get another Rainbow if I so desired, it...

Good riddens to the Rainbow, I say Unless you're an avid collector, I would not recommend a Rainbow (or any water filtration vacuum for that matter) to anybody. They're more hassle for next to no benefit. My dad has a D4 himself, and that machine is by far my least favorite one to use. The...

Blackheart yeah, if I did get one with a good coin box, I'd still want to replicate your rig so that I wouldn't have to keep feeding it quarters every time I wanted to use it. How heavy exactly is yours? They certainly look heavy, but after hearing your description of it, I'm guessing they're...

Centralvacs1928 That's certainly an... interesting concept you had going there., though if you had a garage, why not just put it in there, or that warehouse of a basement you have, since you already have a lengthy collection of central vacs down there. It'd wouldn't be too different. Also...

KirbyMan65 A similar fate occurred at a car wash near me. They replaced their fleet of coin-op vacs with one of those central vac systems. Those seem to be becoming very popular as of late. Obviously, I think it's a little unrealistic to want one of those. Like I said, I'm pretty sure these...

Alongside vacuum cleaners and trains, another one of my childhood interests has been car washes. I've always found them interesting for some reason. Of course, I'm also interested, to a lesser extent, in car wash vacuums. Now, I've never actually used them that much, just on one occasion, and...

I had this dream a few days ago. From what I remember, I was on a trip with my brother and possibly my dad to see my sister in another state. We were going through a what I think was a Best Buy (or some other store with a blue color scheme), when we went through the vacuum aisle. To my shock...

About a year ago, my school held this sort of "giving Tuesday" thing, which basically consisted of packing up clothes to send to the needy, making gift bags of toiletries for veterans, etc. At the end we were instructed to help the janitor do various cleaning tasks if we didn't have anything...

PanasonicVac The point of the fog test is to test how well vacuums can filter and seal allergens that are 5 microns or bigger (particles that you can see with the naked eye). If it can't filter 5 microns or below, then what makes you think it's going to filter anything smaller? Sure, air...

Here are some examples of what I'm talking about (the middle one is from my old school)

PanasonicVac First of all, you're using my old thread from 2 years ago about why I despise dump-out bags. That thing was hot trash, and I don't agree with a lot of things I said in it. Secondly, maybe VacuumWars isn't the most accurate or scientific vacuum reviewer on Youtube, but the simple...

Lesinutah As I've said, I don't want to just use a Heritage ii bag setup on anything other than a Heritage ii. That DS50 doesn't look right with it on. The one on that Classic Omega shown in that video is the exact setup I'm talking about. It has its original bag, but has an added zipper and a...

PanasonicVac Why is it that when people are recommending vacuums for homes here, they recommend bagged machines, but for commercial use, dump-out bagged machines are recommended here, and the argument of them filling up quickly and bags being expensive is used?? (not saying everyone does this...
