    My Journey with Various Cordless Cleaners as a Corded Replacement

    Hi Everyone, It's been a while since I have posted here last. I have occasionally lurked off and on however. Just as some background, I own many of the major corded players, C3 Complete, Felix Simplicity Moxie upgraded, Miele U1 x 2 and I just recently sold my Kirby Avalir. Even with all of...

    Future of Vacuums/Vacuuming?

    Trying to think what the future of vacuuming will be in about 10, 20yrs? I think the robotic vacuums will become more popular as the technology gets better and prices go lower. I also think the higher end companies like Miele, Sebo Aerus, Kirby and Tacony will have to innovate to stay relevant...

    Kirby Ultimate G Diamond

    Thinking about getting one of these soon. I like the idea of the two speeds, I think it could come in handy....as long as is doesn't break down. Just trying to decide which route I want to go. There is one locally on CL for about $70 but it looks like a fixer upper from the pictures. Now if I...

    Some Kirby Questions

    OK got an Avalir today. I like it and it does what it says, deep cleans your carpet. I can feel the vibrations as it agitates the hell out of my carpet. Now a question.....I used the recommended procedure to figure out the height... Wait until I hear first contact and then lower it on more time...

    Need Help With My Simplicity Moxie

    Got a used Moxie, for a super price, and so far I like it. It is a good, capable vacuum. It has nice features (handle controls) and good suction, quiet too. Now, while the canister is nice and quiet, the PN is a little loud. I thought I read here that you can change either the brushroll or...

    Aerus Lux Guardian Platinum

    OK, I am a little interested in this vacuum. I read that it had problems at first but have they been fixed? How good is this really and is it as good as the TOL Miele's, Sebos and Tacony's? Another question....Where can I get this cheaper than usual? Used or demos are fine. Don't want to pay...

    What happened to the UK members?

    I have read many of the old archived posts and noticed there used to be many UK members posting here. I noticed as of late very few are still posting. Coincidence? I happen to think they give a different perspective on vacuums relating to the UK and Europe.

    Sebo K3 to Miele C3?

    I just received a gently used Sebo K3. While I am having a little problem with the low level warning light on the ET-1, otherwise to my surprise, I am into canisters after almost 40 years when I was a child and my mother made me do the vacuuming with some old canister I cannot remember now...

    Why the big price disparity between Sebo and Miele in the US and the UK?

    I would say the disparity is more so with Sebo's products than Miele's. Most of Sebo's products are very comparable between the US and UK.....except for the 700W Eco thing......but the prices can tend to be anywhere from 2 to 3 times those in the UK. For example, a Sebo D4 is about $435 in the...

    New Brushroll?

    Hi, When do you know it's time for a new brushroll? I have an older Miele S7 and a newer Miele U1. The U1's bristles are stiffer than those on the older S7. Could it be that they just made them less stiff several years ago compared to the newer U1's? I notice that the U1 agitates better too...
