    My new toy :)

    A SEBO Air Belt C3.1 Got it at a pawn brokers for $170 down from $195 - couldnt really afford it this week but wanted it really badly :) It is FANTASTIC, I think apart from my Excellio Ultra Silence - this is the quietest vacuum I have ever used. Anyone else have one?

    I dont think I'll EVER understand... *vent warning*

    Ok guys, this is a survey of sorts and I think the people that work in vacuum shops like me and those that collect more 'modern' vacs will get where I am coming from. Why, WHY is it that people are incapable of washing filters in bagless vacuums? I have at least 2-3 customers a week who...

    Dyson with a difference

    Howdy all! Got a dead DC19 (plaster dust - dickheads) and put a brand new Hoover 2400w motor into it. It runs a *little* hot but all Dysons seem to run warm anyway. The motor is actually pretty good for a chinese one and required very little modification of the motor chamber :) I will put a...

    can't believe I'm saying this...

    I have a much greater appreciation for Dyson... This started about a week ago - I have a DC07 and a DC11 at the moment and neither of them really floated my boat and are at the 'back' of my collection. Here comes the DC08 and DC19 - Well big improvement and some very clever designs... I just...

    Bissell Steam Vacs

    I have to disagree.. I have the Bissell Pro Heat Turbo2x and a Hoover Brush'n'wash. The Bissell easily wins on: * Cleaning performance * Ease of tool use * Faster Drying * Easier to fill/empty I would have to award the the easiest to clean the machine to the Hoover though. The hoover removable...

    I've been..

    It was.... The customers! I read whilst unpacking one at our store that the face idea came from customers who said they wanted to brighten their moods when vacuuming as it was such a mundane activity, and hence it was put forward that a face on the vacuum would help to brighten the users...

It had IR remote control and a boost feature. Joe22: Not a problem mate, Ill get them on here tonight for you - It is a very...
