    SEBO Balance A1

    Well Gang, SEBO have FINALLY introduced their own stick vacuum! And this one looks promising. Yes, it is a Dyson style machine, and it does look like SEBO have partnered with an Asian manufacturer for this product. But, this gets A LOT of things right - like the removable battery - and this...

For older models that use the external cord on the wand, like the Miele Plus and White Pearl. Looks to be in fantastic condition, and very...

    Bedtime For Bonzo 1951

    Was watching this old classic on YouTube this morning, and found a hilarious vacuum scene. At 38:40, Bonzo the monkey is left to play with a ball and becomes interested in a Universal upright vacuum left in the living room. He opens the top of the bag, turns it on, and makes a huge mess! Got a...

    RARE 1998 Miele S401i

    So back in the summer of 2021, I picked up this rare machine at a vac shop I was buying parts for my Miele Callisto from. They just so happened to get this in as a recent trade. So, what makes this modern Miele so rare? It's one of only 2 models, the other being the S301i that uses FJM bags...

    Sebo Felix score!

    Back a couple months ago, I was in McHardy Vacuum here in London, Ontario picking up a couple parts for a Miele canister vacuum. While browsing the store, noticed they had a Miele Quickstep and the Sebo Felix Kombi in Onyx and the Rosso version. When I saw the price tag on it, I knew I just HAD...

    Hoover Dimension 1000 canister vacuum find

    So, having recently moved to London, Ontario, I make it a habit to check out Kijiji (Canada's version of Craigslist) to see if anything interesting has been posted for sale. About 2 weeks ago, I came across a ad for this Hoover Dimension 1000 canister vacuum. Since I have also owned a Hoover...

    Great deal on OEM Original Miele bags!

    For those members who prefer to use the genuine Miele bags, Buyparts_1 on Ebay has a terrific deal on the Miele HyClean bags in both GN & FJM style. The boxes have some damage, but the bags & filters themselves are fine. I have bought these bags with box damage from this seller before, they were...

    For those members who own a Miele canister & prefer to use the genuine Original Miele GN bags, here's a great deal you don't see that often! These HyClean bags are EXACTLY identical, with one minor difference - they have the cloth airflow straps at the bottom of the bag like the 1st generation...

    Miele Hyclean 4D Smell Protect bags

    I found this online last night while looking for a vendor to buy Miele GN bags. I use them in my Shark Professional canister, as they are better quality than the Shark bags. Looks like these bags have charcoal infused into the bag material to reduce odors. I suspect they introduced these over...

    Well, isn't this interesting! MyVac

    Remember how Airider disappeared for a while & then reappeared with the current bagged model they have now? Well, turns out they didn't own the rights to the first design at all! Looks like they just had a existing design modified to suit their liking, & sold it here in North America. The old...

    An Interesting Miele Find....

    I was doing some browsing around on the Internet, looking to find a good source for cheap generic Miele bags, & look what I stumbled across....A shakeout Miele bag! Just when you thought such a thing couldn't possibly exist, eh? And they make them in both the FJM & GN sizes. Now if there was...

    Kenmore 5023/5033 Electric Hose for Metal & Plastic Body Canisters

    I have a Kenmore Electric hose from a square-body Kenmore canister from the early 80's. This vacuum was missing the powerhead, wands & needed a replacement cordreel, so decided to part it out. Should fit all Kenmore canisters, metal or plastic body, that use the 5023/5033 bag. The hose is in...

    Dirt Buildup In Canister Vacuum Powerheads

    I have a "interesting" problem I could use some tips on. During the wintertime, I ride my E Bike outdoors....yes I know, I get crazy looks & comments about riding in the winter, but that's what studded tires are for :-). I store it indoors in my apartment, since the brake & gear lines would...

    New Air-Way Canister Vacuum

    Look at this....just found it by accident on the Internet. A new Air-Way canister vacuum....but it's just a rebadged Oreck. What a shame that the new owners of the Air-Way name & trademark have reduced it to Chinese made junk. I bet many Air-Way owners won't be impressed if they see this for...

    Charcoal HEPA Cloth vacuum bags

    Hey Vacuumlanders. So, I was vacuuming with my Kenmore canister today....just changed the bag a week ago, & a tiny bit of dirt in it. Yet the bag is already starting to smell! :( So, put some scented oil on the bag. But it occurred to me....Why aren't charcoal HEPA Cloth bags more common?? The...

    Kenmore CrossoverMax bagless upright vacuum

    I was browsing the Sears website in the USA, & noticed this neat upright. Looks like Kenmore is trying to compete with Bissell, Shark & Hoover for the 2 in 1 upright & canister market. But here's what I found interesting....the dirt cup looks like the Kenmore 600 series bagless canister, yet the...

    Stick vacuum needed....any suggestions?

    Hey Vacuumlanders. I have a friend who just moved into a brand new apartment about a week ago, & want to get her a housewarming gift. She already has a Bissell Powerforce canister vacuum, so she doesn't need a full size vacuum. But the place she moved into has ALL hardwood floors. She is...
