    Best small non-natural fiber dusting attachment?

    I think the one with the long bristles would be good for cleaning, though I think that the other one is nice to use. It depends on the use I suppose.

    Eureka S250A

    I must agree that it looks spiffy.

    Best small non-natural fiber dusting attachment?

    That makes sense. I would suggest against the top one. The middle Dyson clone one might be hard to adapt. The bottom one looks good, though it looks like the bristles are too wide. I like these ones (linked).

    The new Air-Way Ultra Kleen

    That is interesting, thank you.

    I wonder if a Dyson cyclone on an older model with the single cyclone could handle water. That would be funny to use a dc01/dc04 as a carpet extractor.

    Wanting to Test Vacuums

    I will try my best to refine my testing methods. I am still in middle school/intermediate school though so I appologise for any sloppiness in my testing.

    Dyson Piston

    I forgot to mention that I took the filter out. It worked amazingly well.

    Dyson Piston

    I love tinkering. I once made a separator with an old beam central vacuum. I put a Kirby hose machine end in the motor hole, then used an amway lower hose to join it on to a Tellus gs82 dual motor industrial vacuum.

    I have always wondered what would happen if one vacuumed up water. I never tried cause it might be unsafe.

    Door to door sales. Sleazy?

    I have heard bad story's about door to door salesmen.... but this is something different. Thousands and thousands of dollars were, in my opinion SWINDLED out of her. Just horrible, how do these people sleep at night. The good door to door salesmen are wonderful, like the one's on here. But the...

    Dyson Piston

    Not worth the hassle really in my opinion.

    Why do you want artificial bristles? I don’t use artificial bristles so I can’t help you sorry.

    Dyson Piston

    Have to fix a brand-new vacuum is outrageous in my opinion. This is considering that I pick up 40+ year old vacuums and only have to empty the bag and wipe it down. I refurbish some but only because I want to, not because I have to.

    Wanting to Test Vacuums

    Here you stated the problems. Here I responded with corrections to my method, then you quote your earlier reply that needs updating.

    Dyson Piston

    I think that the average consumer will see all this bad press. It really doesn't matter in my opinion how basic the test is. If you want to weigh it so carefully that's single breeze will throw it off balance, that is fine. Not to imply that this is a bad thing though. For example, if you were...

    That lovely that you shared the hobby with your son! I love to hear it when people that deserve vintage vacuums get them.

    Heavily abused Dysons

    basically, dyson's work for some use cases, others not. This job could also be done by a Hoover 652 on the carpet and an older Electrolux cylinder with a HARD FLOOR tool. That way there is no base plate to wear out. One for the carpet and one for the hard floors. Same job and less changing...
