    Carpet or Hardfloors

    Anyone else prefer carpet? A certain someone wanted mainly all hard floors in our house, and I like carpet even more now. Hard floors look nice but they are a lot more work than carpet. With hard floors it’s a cycle of vacuum then mop all the floors. I much prefer carpet, where you can vacuum...

    General Carpet Cleaning

    What method do you prefer for general maintenance cleaning? I previously preferred the Kirby shampoo, but it can be time consuming for large rooms. My preferred method is the Sebo duo powder, it seems to remove anything I want removed. I also appreciate that Sebo claims that the Duo powder...

    Miele cheapened the 236

    I seen this video from Vacmaster 1991 on YouTube, and it appears that the 236 has changed. I bought a 236 last year and mine was made in Poland, but it still has a bumper. It appears that Miele has removed the bumper from the 236, and the lease appears to be smoked.

    Well Another One

    Well Kirby number 3! It appears to be in good shape, I got it for $40, not bad for a Kirby.

    Another brilliant consumer

    This was on Market place. This shows the average consumers lack of knowledge on basic things about a vacuum. I’m not sure where the seller thinks that the Hoover elite hose would plug into? Not to mention, the seller believes that this is not”even a year old”, this is over a decade old.

    Lindhaus Healthcare Pro Hepa Cloth Bags

    I have been told that Hepa bags are available for the Healthcare pro. I called my Dealer today, and he said that the factory only lists the paper bags. I did come across the DH3 bags that are hepa cloth, but are for the Valzar. Where do you get your genuine Lindhaus hepa cloth bags?

    Vacuum store visit

    I will give an update on my X4 repair, but I did get to try the Dart, Softcase, and Felix. The Softcase was nice to use, and the display wasn’t overly loud. The dealer told me that they had several Softcases that were overly loud. I think that if they added a longer cord and a handle power...

    Sebo X4 Difficult to Push

    Well my theory on the clogged bag was not true, my x4 is still difficult to push. I called Sebo and they said that it needs to go to a dealer to have the belt or board replaced. I will give an update on the solution, it should be covered under warranty on my 8 month old X4. I still highly...

    Dc07

    Well I ended up with two Dyson dc07 all floors, not many would dream of this. Long story short, I ended up with two as I believed that the first seller was not going to ship my order. The second one is in better condition and the owner claimed that it “lost its suction over the years.” This dc07...

    Dyson dc07

    Well I’m not really a Dyson fan, but I absolutely love the quirks of the dc07. I just bought one at a good price in descent condition. I am going to automatically replace the filters, any other suggestions? I was going to order the clutch but I think I’ll see if it needs one. The dc07 seems to...

    Sebo X4 Hard to Push

    My X4 has suddenly become hard to push, not sure if my brush is bad or a problem with the height system. My X4 is 8 months old, I don’t see how the brush (blue) could be bad. I just used it, and it was very difficult to push, I also noticed that the base was hotter than normal, my bag is not...

    Riccar no longer say “made in the us with globally outsourced components”

    After viewing a few of the new Instagram adds for Riccar, as they are advertising their new r27 as a luxury. I went on the Riccar website to see what their current lineup is and the pricing. I looked at the reviews for the now $1,899 Tandom Air, and the photos showed that the model plate no...

    Thoughts on The Lindhaus Healthcare Pro 14in

    I recently got my hands on the current version of the Healthcare. It took some time to warm up to it, now I would recommend it. The Healthcare pro seams to do most tasks well, with a few caveats. The carpet performance is on par with my X4, U1, and Spirit. It does tend to spit cat litter...

    Coming Out Of The Vacuum Closet

    Growing up, I was always told that this is an embarrassing hobby by my parents, so I never told anyone except family. I always hated being asked what my hobby was, because I knew I couldn’t say that it was vacuum cleaners. Have you ever told anyone such as friends, teachers, professors, or...
