hyla The hyla is a decent machine, as with many water vacs, it's overpriced if you buy it new. I did get my GST new at a somewhat discounted price since I knew I wanted it and they didn't have to do a demo. When the EST came out, they wanted $1200 for it and that was including trading in my...

nvh380 I may look at getting one of those, if they're available in the United States. That's the only down side of the regular Henry, there is no easy way to connect a power nozzle, of course you can use a battery powered nozzle or use an external electric cord but those ways are definitely not...

actually, one residental canister extractor remains I can't believe I forgot about this one. There is a residental extractor that is still made, the Numatic George. You can use it as a wet dry vac or as an extractor, not sure how well it cleans since I've never used it, but it's still...

more canister cleaners This company seems to make a lot of canister extractors, but they're more for commercial use. Of course, you could buy a commercial extractor and use it to clean your home but it may not be worth the price. I would love to know what motor they are using in some of these...

found one canister extractor This is the only canister extractor I found that actually includes a wand, not sure how good it is but it's designed for commercial use. Mike https://www.sanitairecommercial.com/products/restore-carpet-extractor-sc6085b

car detailing It seems the canister extractors are mainly used for car detailing now rather than residental carpet cleaning, here's a video comparing two extractors, I really like the motor sound on the more expensive one, I'm not sure if these could be adapted to clean larger areas. Mike

canister deep cleaners A while back Bissell made a canister cleaner called the Big Green, but yes, canister cleaners are hard to find these days. You could get the parts and turn a wet dry vac in to a deep cleaner. Get a carpet cleaning wand that has a spray jet and a water hose that you can...

good choice Honestly any of those three nozzles are good choices, I have all of them, but I think the Sebo nozzle is one of the best. It's so easy to remove the brush to clean or replace it. And I would say it performs as well as any other power nozzle. The Lindhaus PB14 pro is also a great...

VM motor I'm pretty sure the VM motor is the same one that is used in the Aerus classic cleaner. I have that machine, the motor works fine but I prefer the two stage motors. The biggest issue I have with the Aerus made tristar cleaners is the hose end and power nozzle connection are nonstandard...

my suggestions If your condo can be cleaned with a 50 foot hose, which it probably can, I would get the Vacumaid Garage Vac Pro. This uses a central vacuum motor but just has a utility inlet on the front that you connect your hose to. It comes with a straight suction hose but you can connect an...

one more distiller I keep thinking my distiller collection is complete, then I find another one that sounds interesting. This one is also made by waterwise but it's a different design. Mike https://www.waterwise.com/product/waterwise-4000-countertop-distiller/

first time This is the first time I have seen his videos, it's obvious he thinks that Dyson is the best and that all vacuums now should be cordless and bagless. If that's what he wants to use, that's his choice but to say that because the Sebo Felix uses a bag is unforgiveable these days is...

you might try this instead of vinegar You might give this cleaner a try, it's made from citric acid, it should clean better than vinegar and also will not have the vinegar smell. Mike https://www.durastillwatersystems.com/still-clean/

distiller cleaners I'm definitely enjoying my 3 water distillers, one important requirement is keeping them clean. I clean each distiller after every cycle to make sure the scale deposits never build up. Just rinsing the boiling pot does not remove the deposits, at first I was using vinegar...

bad Kirby review Ok, for all you Kirby fans on here, this one is for you. Granted, I'm not a big fan of these because I'm not much of an upright person but that's personal preference. But I know some of what he says in this video is incorrect. If a Kirby is well maintained and the height is set...

Of course, everyone has their favorite cleaner and you should use what you like, but some of these reviews are so biased. This reviewer obviously believes that all vacuums should be bagless and cordless now and that a cordless cleaner will clean just as well if not better than a corded cleaner...

how about a central vacuum If you want a powerful hose cleaner, nothing beats a central vacuum, and you don't have to have pipes to use them. Some central vacuum units have a utility valve built in and for those that don't, you can simply attach a utility valve to the in-take. If you get an...

cleaning my distillers So I did end up getting the third distiller I wanted once it was in stock, I think my distiller collection is complete for now, I have 3 of them and each one is designed a bit differently. I prefer to clean them after every use rather than letting any scale crud build up...

comparing electric systems I think each system has advantages and disadvantages. When it comes to voltage, the rest of the world uses 240 volts and this is more efficient because it requires less current than 120 volts does. On the other hand, many other places use 50 HZ instead of 60 HZ and...

yes, they work The ones I use go in to a regular socket so you can use them in several ways. You could get a light socket with a cord and put one of these bulbs in to it, then hold it over a surface. I've done this with shoes that didn't smell too good, about 30 seconds and the smell is gone...
