    Dangerous Toxins Found In Black Plastic

    The air you breath is toxic. The water you drink is toxic. Even oxygen is toxic at too high of a level. Flame retardation chemicals are in everything here in America. They should be trying to eliminate them but sadly American is a little slow on that. Best thing to do is just use...

    New Miele

    Very nice. I sold my Sebo D4. Wayyyyyy to bulky and the power nozzle is garbage. It cleans but it just has no aggressiveness about it. The Sebo bags do leak dust but the filter collects it all.

    SEBO Balance A1

    Well that's nice. I may see about getting a quick pickup vac. Although why are we still harping on filtration when they move so little air that's filtration is almost useless.

    Shark is best???

    I didnt know anything about there anti repair stance. I dont find anything difficult to repair though. What would be the best vacuum thats bagless... the ONLY reason I keep a bagless around is right now we have pets.

    Shark is best???

    I have a Kirby Sentria 2, Rainbow E3 Black, Dyson D14 or D07? and a Shark Navigator lift away M# nv351-31. The rainbow is by far the best on I have as my deep cleaner... or so I thought. I have this Shark that came from my grandma so it was free. I figured I'd give it a try and have been using...

    Sebo with different PN

    I can make it work. I can wire it so that it would work. It just wouldnt look official. I just really need the adapter to connect the 2 different sizes.

    Sebo with different PN

    Does the coreless version have as much power?

    Sebo with different PN

    I have a Sebo D4. Would it be possible to get a Meile style power nozzle to fit on it? I think what Im looking for is a wessel werk EBK360. Is that the best PN I can get?

    Does Rainbow E2 Black really need a hepa filter?

    A typical install with central air "should" move around 400 cfm per ton. So if you have a 2 ton system it "should" move around 800 cfm. Now the numbers are probably much lower then that due to how most ductwork us undersized and most central air units are oversized. (bad old school practices...

    Does Rainbow E2 Black really need a hepa filter?

    Lab tests are not home tests. Sure you and sit different vacs in different chambers and get different results... I'm telling you right now that you air in your home is changing every minute. If your air quality in your home is bad enough that a vacuum cleaner is improving it the you have some...

    Does Rainbow E2 Black really need a hepa filter?

    Im about to open up a can of worms here but anyone that knows about home construction or energy efficiency will know this stuff. 1.. NO vacuum needs a hepa filter. Unless you have asthma and vacuuming actually affects you of others in the same room then you don't need a hepa filter. Even...

    Robotic vacuums? Anyone?

    I got one as a gift this Christmas. It's a iLife v3 pro I think. It has no roller brush just 2 spinning sweepers. I have never wanted one but after having this I'd say I would never not have one. For as cheap as this thing it I wasn't expecting much. It cleans very well as an everyday cleaner...

    The Dirty Fan question

    You cant get asthma and allergen certified without having a clean air machine, easily anyways. Not many people are willing to carry around a bag of attachments either bc they are just lazy.

    ET-1 Problems

    I believe It may not be Sebo as I have noticed a drop in quality in equipment I work with. The parts suppliers themselves are being hit hard with costs since about 2018. Specifically metals and motor manufactures. Hand made PCB boards are hit and miss too depending on which supplier. I have...

    ET-1 Problems

    That is very true. I can get miele and sebo service pretty much anywhere. I would say they are the only 2 vacuums to get around here and they are direct competitors. Thing is Miele needs to step up their game by either reducing prices or shoring up their warranty. I do thing the Miele/Wezzel...

    ET-1 Problems

    No one around here has ever even heard of one. If I got one and needed warranty repair how would that work? Only reason I ask is that Im 2 for 2 on "premium" vacuums needing warranty repairs.

    ET-1 Problems

    Yup. Miele plastic isn't quite as good but the brush roll performance seems great. The pink salt test always gets me with amount of agitation. It also sounds aggressive. If I had a miele I would probably fix it myself. I fix stuff for a living and never found anything to be too hard to fix...

    ET-1 Problems

    I wish I could like it. It would save me the trouble of buying another machine. Hopefully this will fix the issues. The build quality is really good. As for now cleaning performance on some of my carpet is lackluster for deep cleaning. It has no problem removing surface dirt. Very little agitation.

    ET-1 Problems

    I have made a few posts on here about my Sebo D4 and my ET-1 issues and frustrations. I do thing the Sebo D4 is a great machine and hopefully my mind will be changed by the fixes that will be done. I have had the machine for about 16 months and have been using it but never really enjoyed the...
