    Sanitaire clamping effect... or not

    Welcome to Vacuumland ! Your Blue Sanitaire should be everything you every wanted in a great upright vacuum. Especially if it is working properly. The noise Factor, could be that you have a broken or chipped Impellar fan blade. As that throws the motor out of balance and heightens the sound...
