    Really surprised by Platinum Force Hand Vacuum.

    I have the red "PowerReach" model of this. Mine seems to be driven by some sort of turbine in the nozzle.

    RIP old Vacuumland.

    I just came back after a couple weeks and, wow. I'm kinda happy for this change if it includes an actual thread search feature. That thread archive site was clunky to maneuver.

    More pics of it. As far as I know, the bags don’t limit airflow. I just tested hose suction with both my 103 (No paper Bag) and my 533 (Paper Bag. Dirt Devil Type G) and the suction was pretty much the same. Try the correct bag type (Dirt Devil Type G Bags) to see if it helps with the suction...

    abobotek The hose cap you have is the correct one on that model. Judging by the bag design, yours probably has the bag adapter molded right into the casing. My 533 has a bag adapter that came separately from it.

    There was also a Windtunnel and even a Turbopower variant. The Windtunnel variant came in Red, Blue, and a silver color similar to the Lowes Exclusive Preferred and Savvy models. The Turbopower was called the Turbopower 3000. Given the number in the Turbopower range, it was a lower end model...

    How does one actually go about installing a bag in an old style Shop Vac All Around?

    I have a Shop Vac All Around QAL80A and I used a bag in it with the pleated filter. I'm not sure if this is the right configuration because I've seen an image of the same model using a bag without the pleated filter. Would using the bag without the pleated filter be the correct setup?

    Most unpleasant-sounding vacuum ever?

    @powerstarenergy I still have the hand vac you mentioned and even after a disassembly and cleaning of the motor inside it, it still sounds like it’ll blow up. It had sounded like that since I first got it.

    Ghetto Vacuum Contraptions?

    More info about the Dirt Devil Shop Vac Contraption thingie. When I used it to clean the stairs, the suction was so strong, that it was hard for me to move the Handvac across my stairs carpet. I may end up trying this with a car carpet to see how it can be effective over there. I may end up...
