Hi Everyone, My parent's have a Cen-Tec CPB-100 power nozzle and matching hose model# xz221(?) for their VacuFlo system but there is an issue with the wand and hose handle connections. I'm not sure if there was a short in the connection between the two, possibly they disconnected the handle...

Hi Everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows if the brush roll that was used in the Kirby Floor Care Kit buffer nozzle can be used in the shampoo nozzle too? I have a Diamond Edition and I would like to get the buffer brush roll to help restore the nap of my carpet. I had a G4 many years ago...

It's been a vey long time since I've posted here but I need some help. I recently started using my Electrolux Renaissance as my daily driver and the bearing in the power nozzle that's closest to the belt is squeaking. I've had this machine for about 10 years and I bought it in nearly new...

I thought that Aerus was supposed to release a new upright this past April/May, but I've checked their website and no changes have been made? Are they still planning on releasing a new machine? I haven't been reading the forum on a daily basis as I've been to busy lately, but I do remember...

I disassembled an older non-self-propelled Hoover WindTunnel several months ago so that I could clean, disinfect the entire machine, and get rid of the old dog smell. I took pictures along the way while I took it apart but I forgot to take one of the most important part, the motor. There are...

I disassembled and cleaned my b/f's mothers old non-s/p WindTunnel so that I could possibly convince her to use it as her primary vacuum on the wall to wall carpet instead of her awful Eureka Altima Bagless upright. However, when I went to put it all back together I labeled all the wiring...

Does anyone know where I might find the dial that is part of the cleaning selector which is missing from my machine? I've looked on eBay a few times and other websites but I haven't come across one yet. I found this machine in the trash about four years ago while I was driving through my...

Im interested in purchasing a new Miele Capricorn with the SEB236 and was wondering if anyone has one and what their opinion is about the machine. I've had a Blue Moon, Red Velvet, and S251(?) in the past and I loved them all, especially the Red Velvet. I recently purchased a late model...

I have owned an Electrolux Renaissance in the past and I liked the unit, however I had a large German Shepard at the time and it just didnt work for me. My beautiful dog has been gone for 2 years now and I would love to purchase a Guardian just to have one, as Im a huge Electrolux fan. I know...

I recently read Consumer Report's Vacuum Cleaner ratings and was suprised that the "new and improved" Guardian Ultra did not receive a very good rating. Over the past 15 years CR has never rated Electrolux vacs very well, but they have usually done well in the reliability ratings. This model...

I can not remember how to read the serial number on the G-series machines, I thought you use the first 3 digits to tell the month and year but now Im second guessing myself. What is the correct way to read the number? Thanks! Steven

Does anyone have the Miele SBB 300 Parquet Floor brush or the generic version available from thinkvacuum.com? Someone a while back posted the link at the bottom for thinkvacuum but I dont remember what they thought of it. Is the generic version an exact replica of the Miele? I use either the...

I have a light blue Eureka Express power nozzle that goes with the Eureka Express canister my mom bought new in '84 or '85 and would like to use it with my central vacuum. I'm wondering if the Roto-Matic p/n cleans better than the Express p/n. I think the Express p/n may need a new motor...

Ok so i decided to take my Lux XXX out of its storage box and clean it up today. This is the vacuum that started it all when i was little. It belong to my next door neighbor, and older woman who was one of my grandmas close friends for many years. I think it was already achieved antique status...

I saw the new Hide-A-Hose system at the VacuFlo store today and the owner told me that most new instalations are using it instead of standard inlets. I had to bring back my Turbo grip hose (still in warranty) since it sounds like there are rocks in it when the handle swivels and he tried to sell...

Does anyone have an air powered turbo kit for their central vacuum? I have the Hayden Super Pack with my VacuFlo and I hate it! I like the Plastiflex turbo grip hose much better and was thinking about buying a second kit for the house. Since I already have an electric kit I am curious to know...

I recently put in a Vacuflo central vacuum with the Hayden super pack direct connect kit. My vac dealer whom I have purchased many machines from over the years said that this is one of the best kits on the market, and I trusted his judgement. I still wish that this power nozzle had a beater bar...

I have never seen or heard of these machines before. Does anyone know when they were made and where they are from? The link attached says it was serviced on Long Island and list the address. This address is less than 15 minutes from my house and there are no stores on that road, just a senic...

Im attempting to rebuild the 1076 I purchased on ebay a few weeks ago. I took apart the machine, threw the bag in the washing machine and gave the machine a bath. The machine has that old vacuum smell, like it had been sitting in an unfinished basement since the begining of time. I was able to...

I saw this model on Hoovers web site just before it came out and there was a special video clip about the machine. I also saw them on sale in Target. What happened to this model? Why was it discontinued? It seemed like a good idea but why did it go off the market so quickly? It was the most...
