Just grow up for god sake before you end up taking over the most disliked vacland member title.
The activator and hoover agitator belong in the past.

They belong on traditional carpets NOT modern ones. Have seen these brushrolls ruin modern fashion carpets -I know from personal experience.

Modern day fashion carpets require stiff brushrolls and thats where it ends.

Sebo have their brushroll perfect for these. END OF.

YOu have a Sebo yes but then the carpet in your house is pushing 20 odd years old so how can you decide whats what?

Your attitude stinks and to hide behind another member, blame their influences, blame it on a very bad joke is just lame!

Wehn you have used the amount and variety of vacs I and other members have used in a MIXTURE of different scenarios then you can bitch and slag off. Until then just zip it.


My local hospital has all kinds of carpet in it.
Day rooms have thick carpets for people to relax in.
Waiting areas are carpet tiled,
Entrance areas have rugged deep tread wall to wall matting.
Offices seem to have a felted type carpet
There are even gathering rooms used for various occasions for patients to celebrate or spend private time in that have very thick pile carpets.

I have noticed Sebo's Henry's, Vaclensas knocking around the hospital all of which are very fit for the purpose.

Get off your high horse and stop with the attitude before its too late.
 
Rob...

Oh, Rob, you do make me laugh out loud...
It is bad to have daggers for people.
If you don't like me, then stop following me around vacuumland, I am sure you just want an argument with me.
Oh and finally, you are the one giving me advice...Is this not coming from the one who has been banned before? Can't think why...
 
Im not following you.

Just correcting your misguided thoughts and speculations.

Does'nt do for other people reading your comments to be mislead and fed false info.

Bet your not laughing at me half as much as everyone else is laughing at you.
 
Alex, no one is "following" you around - but you are in a forum WITH other members who may HAVE MORE EXPERIENCE than you.

Not sure about your last question either. Its very confusing and misleading - have you actually read it? What are you trying to say here?
 
have a think

the activator nodules get worn over time and can get damaged with minute nicks and chunks out of them.

modern fashion carpet is like sizal, loop piles, twists, and all it takes is for a piece of the nodule plastic to be nicked as it grips the carpet and snags it and wraps the thread around the brushroll.

result is one damaged threadbare carpet.

on Sebo's the brushes only come into contact with the carpet where it simply sweeps it. No cushion of air, no beating.

If the plastic of the brushroll gets damaged it cant snag the carpet as its nowhere near it.

Now do you realise why?
 
Perhaps its time for a special thread to be opened where the ignorant narrow minded folk can wax lyrical about their activators, '#~$^& XXXXXX 1977 :!$3*@~~ all day everyday to remind themselves just how good it was back then so the rest of us can chat about relevant issues of modern day.
 
The simple thing is that we all like different model vacuums. My Favorite vintage brand is Electrolux, because my Grandfather was the md for Africa but I never met him, he died when my dad was just 15, That said , I have a real love for Hoovers, They make up the majority of my Vintage collection, probably because they sold the most vacuums in the pre 1980 in SA. My Favorite modern vacuum is a dyson, I was working for Electrolux when i got my first one and have never looked back. YOu will never convince me that any vacuum will clean my carpets better than my dc41,dc28 and dc18. In my house in my experiance nothing cleans my house as well as my dysons and I have tried and used just about everything.
That said if you like the Hoover turbo power or the Kirby sentria or what ever I appreciate your opinion.

I kind of like this Hoover Commercial though I have never tried one yet, I have owned just about every sebo and can say that there brushrols are good ( I owned a commercial cleaning company, still own shares in it) They last long but in SA they are a little expensive, Just a tad and if this machine came in at half the price I would be tempted to buy them.

On another topic, Tom Gasko aka Dysonman1 is a well known and widely respected Member of the vacuum community, He runs the vacuum Museum for Tacony and his opinion on a vacuum is widely respected by just about every vacuum manufacturer that is worth its salt. He has been collecting vacuums for longer than many of you have been alive so some respect for the man.

I know from personal experience that dyson( the company ) is very helpful when it comes to collecting there vacuum cleaners.
