The filter cover is also broken...another tape job :-D strategically placed ofcourse...

2 slight problems, but not the end of the world The hose has a tear in it, which leaked suction badly, a bit of tape has sealed it up, not exactly pretty, but fully functional still.

Hi guys, I guess you could officially say the collecting bug has bitten now. Went into the British Heart Foundation shop today, walked straight over to this, and bought it without second thought. When I got it the handle release didn't work, but a bit of dismantling and reassembly and that's...

And... The Vitesse Matt

Worst vacuum I have ever used? My Grandad's Dirt Devil centrixx TS. Clogs at after cleaning one small room, turbo brush doesn't work at all and the suction and filtration are appauling. My flat came with an Electrolux vitesse petlover which is pretty awful too, again clogs, poor suction, poor...

Now.... The suction is absoltely amazing! So quiet too! It's actually a lot lighter than I expected, lighter than a Henry I'd say. The filter system is fantastic too, the dust container STINKS of dog, yet the exhaust air smells perfectly fresh! I don't like the "Bagless" dust collection...

Cone Filter Anyone who says a Dyson is messy to empty has clearly never tried to empty one of these! Interesting design though :-)

Power Nozzle :-)

Well Just picked it up!

They look erm... Delightful!? :-|

Well... I've just won it for £10! Will be interesting to see what condition it's in etc. Will keep you all posted! Matt

The bug Well if it hasn't bitten yet it's certainly snapping at my heels! I'll certainly be on the lookout for a 1036, amongst many others (if only I had the room!) I guessed by the looks of it it will probably be completely impractical, too heavy and too big to use in my house, but that's...

Thanks for the help! Will definately go for it I think. Kinda new to the whole collecting thing, what would you say would be a sensible max bid? Matt

Hi guys, Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, no idea of the age. Was just browsing ebay and noticed this up for grabs in my area and I'm thinking about going for it, could do with a new cylinder (canister) machine and this looks pretty interesting and unusual. :) I know nothing of this...

Why would you even bother trying to compare a Dyson to a Kir That's like comparing a carpet shampooer to a vacuum cleaner and asking which one will leave carpets cleanest! It's obvious which one, but would you shampoo your carpets as part of your everyday clean up!? They are completely...

Thanks for the help so far! I know a lot of American Hoover models are sold as Vax in the UK, I have been looking into the Vax Mach air if anyone has any advice on the performance of these? I would love ot get him a Miele and have seriosuly considered this, but he doesn't have much money at...

Hi Guys, Don't know so much about vacs I'm afraid, more of a washer guy, so not really sure what my best option is here. My Grandad has Dirt Devil Bagless cylinder thing which clogs at the drop of a hat and barely picks anything up, so I want to get him a new vacuum for Christmas. Now, his...
