Looks like some kind of cordless stick vac from oreck, there is only a breif glimpse of the machine at the end of the video on this page. Looks like it may be bagged, which would be interesting. http://https//www.oreck.com/pod-cordless.html

I'll defend the black and decker air swivel. I have had one for almost two years and use it all the time. It is very lite and easy to use, picks up well, and is relatively easy to maintain. I agree it isn't the best for thicker carpets and the attachment it comes with is pretty bad. But for the...

Personally I don't see why a certain topic can't be discussed more than once. I know my views and opinions change over time, so rediscussing a topic has value to me. I frequently miss threads on here, or stop reading certain ones when they become particularly nasty. I haven't had to fix a...

I have a different opinion I had a shark rotator for five years, never had an issue with it. The filter didn't require nearly as much cleaning as people say, the filtration never showed any signs of leaking even as I vacuumed up fine carpet cleaning powder. Never leaked any carbon dust either...

Glad your dc07 is still working, doesn't really suprise me though. I know plenty of people still regularly using their 10+ year old dysons. I have a 12 year old dc14 that was heavily used in a bank for about 8 years. I had to replace the base plate and brushbar, but otherwise it is still...

I'm really glad you fixed it! I'm sorry I wasn't more help.

Reading the article, it appears that the roomba mapps your rooms as part of it's cleaninig pattern and this data has the potential to be collected. At this time irobot does not actually collect this data, and it seems they don't have any plans to (especially after the public reaction to the...

You may be thinking of the 3-in-1 tub type machine that was indeed an early dyson prototype. It would have had wet and dry pickup ability and a function to wash carpets similar to a vax 121 or hoover aquamaster, only using dual cyclone technology. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I think...

I absolutely agree with the statement above. I have no idea if the new react machines are any good or not, and I did not intend to label them junk. The automatic brush speed adjustment sounds interesting, and I like how they are multicyclonic (with a dyson-esqe metal shroud). They also featue a...

That sounds about right, the dc33 has a large debris pick up channel in front of the main brush channel which prevents the cleaner head from really "gripping" the carpet by bleeding off some suction. In general the dysons that use a clutch glide over the carpet and clean the surface well but...

Sadly I don't think a group of our size boycotting hoover would be noticed by hoover. It would probably be more effective if you emailed hoover and expressed your displeasure to customer support. Despite the fact that I might be one of the few collectors on this site who enjoys modern vacuums...

I've had one of the samsung "dyson rip off" canisters for about three years. No explosions to report and I actually really like it. Nice to use and quiet.

Although I can't confirm for sure yet, I believe that the picture is inaccurate. It looks like a doctored stock photo. The machine is listed as coming with attachments on the box so surely it comes with a hose. At least I hope it does!

I grabbed one of these last week, but have yet to open it. It is virtually identical to a model sold under the kenmore name (link below). I had a bagged version a few years ago, which was actually a good little machine. I know this one uses a proper dual cyclone (assuming aldi didn't change the...

Rob, I would like to apologize. I did not see your post on that other thread, indeed you deserve the original credit for this. I simply posted something that popped in my head when I was reading this particular thread.

If I remember correctly, this canister vacuum was manufactured by LG for kenmore. The hoover bagless windtunnel canister (model s3765) was also made by LG and had a similar hose and similar speed controls. I wouldn't be suprised if the hose itself is the same, and finding a hose for the hoover...

Fantomtechguy, I'm glad I could add to your thread in a constructive manner. John, Thank you, we are alright. Hurricane harvey had very little effect where we are. Tolivac, I wasn't brave enough to try and empty the sanitaires! They were not owned or maintained by the cleaning staff at my...

I'm don't think I've ever seen a vacuum that proudly displays it's circuit board or uses it as a selling point. Most vacuums likely use it for soft start functions, bag check lights, and a thermal cut off.. The circuit board in my 1998 miele, my mom's 2004 miele, and in my 2010 miele upright...

For the last two years I've lived in a dorm. They had sanitaire uprights (with the dust cup) and brooms that you could "check out" from the front desk. Sounds great, but in practice the sanitaires were always in bad repair. The few times I heard them operating I could tell they were badly...

This forum is an excellent resource for dysons. The link is to one of their members stripping down a dc11. http://https//manchestervacs.co.uk/DysonForum/index.php/topic,2745.0.html
