Amazing how much dirt was trapped in the old Hoover. Nice job on the clean up and rebuild.

See link for picture... Also has a video. Apparently unit has remote control to hand on belt. http://www.buysanitaire.com/Sanitaire/SC535A-QuietClean-HEPA-BackPack-Vac__SC535A.aspx

I'm not fond of raw onions, so I think John's advise is good. I like chicken salad on occasion, but I'm not fond of those with raw onions and celery. I had a very nice chicken salad in St. Louis that had chicken, cashews, pineapple, dry mustard and mayo. This is fairly easy to copy. A local...

Seems like you'd be better off using a leaf blower than a vacuum. http://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Outdoor-Power-Equipment-Leaf-Blowers/N-5yc1vZbxav

"That Riccar Radiance cleaning the carpet ever for the first time ever with that Airway nozzle---- hmmmm!!" - I thought it was a pretty funny parody. Just like I thought the picture of you with the blue gloves was a good parody. Neither should be taken too seriously, hopefully, they were...

Rob Shore said: "Greg filled my Subaru Forester with several Filter Queens that he bought off Tom Gasko at the museum!! One of them he used to clean our motel room with!" Just curious, did the Filter Queen remove any significant amount of dirt from the rug and/or mattress?

With all due respect, how in the world are they thieves? They simply resell whatever is donated to support their mission. there is no guarantee that there even was a vacuum donated with the attachments. It's a charity not a vacuum cleaner store. I'd be rather surprised if preservation of...

Regarding the first post: "Rob Shore with his blue rubber gloves - so he didn't have to 'touch' a Hoover!" (Post# 353535) Isn't that "Hoover" really a rebadged Tacony product?

If you're a costco member, you have this Husky as an option. The reviews look pretty good. http://www.costco.com/Husky-Storm-Central-Vacuum-System-with-Electric-Power-Head-Kit.product.100161400.html

So how was the convention?

thanks for posting. Would be nice to see how numbers change after ingesting say 10oz of dirt.

So are those light switches or something else above the ostrich fellow duster? Your electrical systems are a little different than ours. :-)

Andrew - rather than picking out a vacuum for your wife, why don't you let her pick now that you've done the research and can help guide her? If she's going to use it, it's best to make sure she likes it. Best of luck.

When making your measurements, is it necessary to adjust for the diameter of the hoses being tested?

I would recommend that you look at the Simplicity Wonder and the Riccar Prima as alternatives. You really don't have to spend $900+ to get a quality vacuum.

Unless you could get by with a suction only backpack vacuum, I don't think you're going to have much luck with any vacuum given the corrosive materials being picked up . You may want to use the lowest priced commercial vacuums available and consider them to be disposable, at least during the...

CarTalk.com has a lot of information about the Prius. the cost for a new battery is over $3,000. http://community.cartalk.com/discussion/2282043/toyota-prius-battery

When Consumer Reports tested the Lindhaus Aptiva, I was surprised by how bad the results were. The Miele non-Eco uprights and Sebo Felix models have done well in Consumer Reports testing.

To state the obvious, you got a great deal.
