    LG Kompressor Upright

    Hi Guys, So seriously considering getting one of these shipped from the USA as we dont have the uprights here. The Canister Kompressor that I have is very impressive and cleans well for a non-powerhead machine. So does anyone have one??? Used one???

    has anyone see/used one of these?

    I have one... Performance is OK It weighs a TON and is awkward to use, a regretful new machine purchase. I paid $449 in Australia. I would personally not re-purchase. Carpet Cleaning is strongest point, Vacuum is weakest. Cheers

    Robotic Vacuum Experts?

    Roomba & Scooba I have both, I think they are really good as long as you remember what they are for and that they don't replace a full size vac

    Steam Vacs Owners of ANY kind of machine...

    Hi Guys, Should have asked this before, rather than after but here goes: Is it beneficial, after shampooing to rinse with a tank of clean, hot water without detergent? I have done this and the water was cleaner and the carpet appeared a little softer, but was it really a waste of time. Cheers

    Longevity Of Current Cleaners

    Two Words - HEPA Filter These filters put too much stress and strain on the airflow of the vacuum, causing it to get hotter. Also bagless, Miele last just as long as they used to... guess what - no bagless.

    I don't wish to create BIG debate but...

    I just completely pulled apart my Bissell Healthy Home and to those who say it isn't - I say nay nay! They have even gone to the extent of 'ducting' the exhaust from the brushroll motor into the main chamber so as to not leak any dust. the machine is put together very very well and each part...

    Vax Mach Air

    Have to say, just got this machine today (Care of a very special man, Jon). And it is a HOOT to use :) Quiet, Powerful, Easy to move around - It also seems to have quite a high separation efficency as well, after vacuuming a very dirty rug, the the filter was only slightly shaded at the exit...

    GROSS... We should all do this for fun

    Below is what I vacuumed out of a 5 month old mattress... Its really gross thinking you're sleeping on it too. Extra points for who can name the type of machine the dust cup is from :)

    Silly question

    It makes a BIG difference.. Windtunnel was designed to stop dirt from being scattered/sprayed back into the carpet as you vacuum. Basically in action the front channel collects any larger debris, the middle chamber collects the bulk and the rear collects whatever is missed as it is hurled back...
