    New Thought

    Kirby, considering the fubar mess I made when I dumped my Turbo H20 over twice I shudder to think what a fully loaded water Kirby could do!

    Power Nozzle Dyson Canisters

    Could you use the Zorb with a Kirby rug shampooer brush (dry)? Then vacuum as usual?

    Quantum Wet/Dry Vac (Rainbow copy)

    It makes sense that stuff that won't absorb into the water well such as plaster dust, baby powder, etc. would be passed through the water. I guess that's why my Tursbo H2O has a hepa. The Turdbo does do a pretty good job which is why I'd like to get a "real" water vac, but now I'm not sure.

    Bette Davis Eyes

    Thanks Air Way, that's it. I also remember seeing a b/w movie that takes place in England(?). Bette plays the wife whose husband had been missing for years. He comes back but she's in love with someone else. She knocks him off but gets caught by the friendly village doc. It has to be 40yrs ago...

    Alex, do you remember the name of the movie where Bette played Judith Trahearn, the rich socalite with brain cancer?

    Quantum Wet/Dry Vac (Rainbow copy)

    Mark, I wonder if there is 'something' inside that needs to be cleaned at 180 hrs? I wonder if 'no filter to clean' means the customer is not supposed to do anything? It is a good looking machine and seems to be a good price.

    Quantum Wet/Dry Vac (Rainbow copy)

    Even better! Here's the one I have. It looks like the same box and all, but I only paid $39.00 for mine. I guess they must appreciate in value...

    Quantum Wet/Dry Vac (Rainbow copy)

    And this one shows the demonstrators getting a little too friendly with the hose. http://https//www.youtube.com/watch?v=FehWcAdwrSA

    Quantum Wet/Dry Vac (Rainbow copy)

    And this one says that after 180 hours of use a "service" light will come on and you should take it to the dealer for "maintaince". http://https//www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0YKdW6ZE2U

    Quantum Wet/Dry Vac (Rainbow copy)

    But wait there's more! This vid actually shows the seperator and how it comes off to be cleaned. Still no mention of any filters. http://https//www.youtube.com/watch?v=2B58IEL6_aE

    Quantum Wet/Dry Vac (Rainbow copy)

    As I remembered you can't download the 'whole' owners manual. There is mention of the seperator, how to clean, etc. It would be interesting to see if there is any mention of a 'air cleaner or exhaust purifier' (technically not a filter).

    Kenmore Progressive Canister Vacuum Question..

    Fan, my KM blueberry canister acted possessed till I changed board, which looked fine. It would always start, but not stop. It would run at slow speed, change speeds and when off it would try to start. I had never even touched a 'board' before and found the replacement very easy.

    What's your favorite car?

    Actually it wasn't water. It was the gas tank. Surprise! Good thing dad had already taken delivery and the new Regal.

    What's your favorite car?

    And speaking of the GM wagon tank. Kid next store turns 16 and dad gives him the family Buick Sport Wagon which was in great shape. Johnnie drives it for a while and tells dad that he thinks it has a leak and water is collecting in the drivers side rear panel. Dad gets drill and the rest is history.

    Water Sports

    SpacedogB, you can have it for the cost of shipping. I don't think it's worth that. If you look around you may find a new one cheap. I got this one, new in box, for $39.00 plus shipping. I think I got it from one of those 'overstock or wayfair' type places.

    Mark, you nasty thing! I wondered if anyone would go there. You are my kind of man!

    Water Sports

    I decided to try the H2O Turbo to do some heavy hard floor cleaning today. While it did an OK job the task of cleaning the vac at the end was more than I could bear. As dear ole Dad was want to say: "Opinions are like ass holes, everyone has one". That said, the H2O is going to the thrift store...
