    new central vacuum

    There is one major brand of central vacuum that I don't have in my collection, Cyclovac. So, I ordered the 7525, this thing sounds amazing. It has two motors, but the motors are separate units. I use my central vacuums without pipes, just connect the hose directly but there is one thing that...

    repairing Shark vacuums

    I know Shark vacuums are very difficult to repair but I didn't know what they did to make their vacuums so difficult to repair other than not providing parts. I came across this video that really describes it well. I know some on here use Shark cleaners and like them and that's fine. For those...

    central vacuum stores

    Hi everyone, I'm wondering if anyone knows if Central Vacuum Stores is no more? This was a major on line retaylor of central vacuums and portable vacuums as well and they were based in Florida but the web site is no longer available. This was a pretty large on line web site for vacuums...

    my robot vacuum collection

    While I still don't think robot vacuums have gotten to the point where they can take the place of corded vacuums, they have come a long way in the last 20 years, originally they would just bounce around the room randomly and were about as powerful as a dust buster. The robots available now are...

    can anyone identify this power nozzle

    MD has a new central vacuum power nozzle available, they are calling it the Falcon, I'm sure it's a rebranded power nozzle since they don't make their own but based on the description I can't tell which one it is. It's not the Dustcare PB11 or a Eureka express since those don't have height...

    disappointment when an item becomes part of vacuum history

    So, is it just me or do other collectors also feel some disappointment when something related to vacuums that they really like becomes discontinued and is now a part of vacuum history? That's the case for me here, the Centec CT10 power nozzle is now a thing of the past and is no longer...

    filter queen now sold on line

    I was browsing the e vacuum store web site just to see if there were any new canister cleaners and I was surprised to find that they are selling the Filter Queen now. I doubt that anyone will pay the price they are asking, if you look at their canister vacuums page it's $3398. That's crazy and I...

    Nilfisk vacuums

    Got my windows replaced this week and the window company had a Euroclean canister cleaner to clean up the mess. It was nice, very quiet and it sounded like a two stage motor. I'm thinking I might want one of these for my collection. Apparently Nilfisk makes the Euroclean brand and a brand called...

    bad reviews of Sebo Felix and Kirby

    Of course, everyone has their favorite cleaner and you should use what you like, but some of these reviews are so biased. This reviewer obviously believes that all vacuums should be bagless and cordless now and that a cordless cleaner will clean just as well if not better than a corded cleaner...

    identifying Eureka power teams

    Ok, for the Eureka experts, was looking at some Eureka vacuum commercials, does anyone know which Eureka power team this is? I really like the suction motor sound on this one, sounds similar to the Electrolux super J. Mike

    looking at a few more central vacuums

    As you can tell from my previous posts, I absolutely love central vacuum units, and using them without pipes really gives you the best of both worlds, the power and convenience of a central vacuum without the need to install anything. I'm looking at getting a few more units, and here they are...

    my central vacuum collection

    I think most of us on here collect vacuums of one type or another, but I'm wondering how many collect central vacuum units? Ever since I got my first central vacuum unit and saw how powerful they were, along with the convenience of not having to pull a vacuum around I was hooked and I knew I...

    for all the Kirby lovers

    I know we have some on here who really enjoy their Kirby cleaners so I thought I would post this video, it provides three suggestions to improve the performance of Kirby vacuums, if you use a Kirby frequently you may already know these but I thought some may find it helpful. Mike

    Sebo's upright series

    I'm mostly a canister, backpack or central vacuum person but I do have one upright, the Sebo Felix mainly because it provides much of the same flexibility that a canister provides, and that got me to thinking about Sebo's different upright series. There are four different series and I'm...

    Eureka power nozzle canisters of the 1970's

    Wondering if there any Eureka experts who might be able to provide more information about Eureka power nozzle canisters from the 1970's. Here is part of an article that Tom wrote for the VDTA magazine. During the mid 1970's Eureka built three designs of their canisters to use power nozzles --...

    possibly my next vacuum

    One of my favorite kinds of vacuum to collect is central vacuum units and I use all of them without pipes, this one really looks interesting and the fact that it has a hose inlet built in to it makes it sound even better, I'm really thinking about getting it, it would be vacuum 59 in my...

    Drainvac's 2020 central vacuum series

    I have several of these units, I use all of my central vacuum units directly without pipes. In my opinion, these are by far the best central vacuum power units you can get and offer the best quality and power for the price. I'll post each one in order of power level. Mike

    exactly how do vacuum distributors work

    Out of curiosity I took a look at the main Sebo web site in Germany sebo.de and surprisingly they had an English version of the site as well, I was a bit surprised about that since they are in Germany. Anyway, it mentioned the different distributors around the world such as Sebo America, Sebo...

    I've been thinking about getting these for a while and decided to get them as a late Christmas present to myself. First is the zero g vacuum, I've seen some videos on this and it really sounds nice, and since I love canister cleaners, what a nice one to add to my collection...

    Sebo Felix questions

    I'm getting this vacuum for Christmas for a friend of mine and had a few questions. First, what does everyone think of their Felix. I've done a search on the forums and many seem to think that it's one of the best uprights available. When it comes to hard floors, do you find that it cleans...
