    Rinsing a Dyson Shroud

    Rinsing I used to clean out my Dyson machine twice a year. Running hot water through the cyclone unit. And boy would it run black for a while. When it would begin to run clear, I would put my hand over the lower end of it and give it a good shake then go back to rinsing. Took about 15 20...

    Bags That was a pleasant surprise, the bags are relatively inexpensive compared with other brands. Six bags for 14.50. I am infatuated with this machine. Tomorrow, I will try cleaning the a/c vents and dusting furniture with it. So far, I am greatly impressed. Malcolm

    WOW! Nothing cleans like a new vacuum cleaner. This thing out performs the Dyson in carpet grooming alone. Just awesome! I'll be cleaning on a more regular basis for sure. I also like the horse hair dusting brush. So soft! Thanks to all who offered their advice. Happy Vacuumer Here! Malcolm

    Done Deal Well, I just got home from All Wholesale Vacuum in Gainesville. I purchase the Simplicity Synergy upright. Totally impressed with the build quality. Once I get through the Owner's Manual, I will unleash the beast on the house. I think I made a fine choice. Malcolm

    Simplicity I plan to check out the Simplicity dealer tomorrow. If I am still not 100% sold, I will drive out to Woodstock for a look at the Riccar next weekend. Fortunately, my Dyson is still holding on. So I am not under the gun to purchase in a hurry. Which is they way I prefer to handle...

    Floor Type Primarily, the vacuum cleaner will be used to clean a cut pile carpet which spans most of the house. Other than that, I would like to have a long enough hose/pipe to reach the cobwebs in the corners of the ceiling when needed. A bare floor attachment would be helpful as well. Is...

    Right Now... I am down to the Simplicity and a Miele. While I would prefer to buy American, I can't seem to rule out the Miele machines quite yet. I'll need to take both for a test drive before I can make a final decision. Of course I will report back my thoughts after all is said and done...

    Authorized Dealer It seems there is a Simplicity Dealer very nearby my work. I may have to go over there on a lunch break this week for a test drive. They could be the winner. Malcolm

    Help me chose a new vac!

    Simplicity? Does anyone own a Simplicity? I see that they are made in USA. That moves them up on my list. Nobody has mentioned them here yet so maybe they aren't that great. They seem to have a connection to Riccar for some reason. Not cheap, but if you only buy a vacuum every 10 years or...

    Sebo Anyone have anything to say about the Sebo machines? Went to the Oreck store for a demo and I must say, I wasn't terribly impressed with it. Malcolm

    Opinions So, everyone has an opinion and they mostly all conflict with each other. Plus, there are so many brands that I have never heard of before. I am intrigued by the Rainbow, but what is the brands justification for such a high price tag? I certainly don't have a problem purchasing...

    Help me chose a new vac!

    My 10 year old Dyson is on its way out. I'm shopping for a replacement. What is the best vacuum and why? What should I spend? I looked at the Rainbow but cannot see any reason for spending that kind of money. Does anybody here swear by their vacuum? If so, which brand and why. Point me in...
