    Sebo Felix suction

    I have had both at one time or the other and prefer the Sebo Felix. The automatic height adjustment on the X series worked, but didn't actually brush my carpet nap as well as the Felix manual height adjustment.     PR-21 Bud

    Proper way to store hoses?

    Hanging Hoses This is how I do mine.     You can get them at hardware stores. They are metal with a rubber coating. Good for hoses and vacuum tools.     PR-21 Bud

    Question about Hoover Decade 80 Brush Roll

    I had the same problem and greased the bearings etc. Finally I just bought a CWP Convertible brush roll with 4 rows of brushes. Solved the problem and grooms the carpet very well.     PR-21 Bud

    Lux 5000 -- 2 models?

    There should be a small 3 or 4 inch crevice tool that goes under the clip. You can still find them on ebay at times.     PR-21 Bud

    Lux 5000 -- 2 models?

    That model should have come with the old style hose,  wands and power nozzle. That holds the small crevice tool and combo brush. Just like their Classic Model today.   Bud PR-21

    Kirby carpet fluffer

    The polisher brush will not fit in the Avalir Shampoer, however, if you have a floor polisher/carpet fluffer from a G Series or Sentria, it will work on the Avalir system. I use it from time to time with mine. Just be careful as the previous poster stated. Be sure your carpet is one that can be...

    Need Opinions on the Rainbow Rainmate

    I also have one I have the lighted black one. I use genuine scents in mine, but not just a few drops like it says. I actually squirt the fragrance in. You will still have to move it from room to room. I usually put it in my kitchen and then my master bath. I have two Rainbows. An SE PE and a...

    My Arrival; Is The Bagged Power Nozzle Canister Market Dying?

    If you could only have one or the other, I would buy a good canister with a power nozzle. You can't get an upright under the bed or behind furniture....I have a Lazyboy Sectional that is on a metal track. It has a loveseat on one side and a couch on the other, with a corner piece that connects...

    Sebo E3 vs D4

    I have both. I feel the D4 doesn't have as much suction/airflow as the K Series. Also my K Series is not the newest design that you have pictured. PR-21 Bud

    Help me find this please

    I read that Ebay is onto that. Something about taking into account the shipping price when they bill their item charge for selling. So I don't think the seller is getting by with anything........This seems to have stopped mostly....... PR-21 Bud

    Perfect PowerTeam Model C101

    I had a Perfect c101 power team. I missed the automatic controls, but the biggest problem was it had too much suction. Even with the control valve open, it would stall out my sidekick or suck the drapes into the upholstery tool. Very annoying, unless you just used it for vacuuming hard surface...

    Rainbow hepa filter question

    Shae, I don't use mine without the hepa filter, but with that said, I don't use the E2 Black much. I am using my Rainbow SE PE, which does not have a hepa filter, which is not a problem for me as I do not pick up non wettable items with my Rainbows anyway. The other thing is the genuine...
