Bagless Canisters

[fantomlightning]

Are there any bagless canisters out currently with a decent set of attachments? Or just a standard connection size so I can get aftermarket tools? Every decent looking bagless canister I've seen either has horrid tools, or a non standard connection size... Also does anyone know if there would be a converter I could get to use normal size tools with the LG Kompressor LCV900B canister?

Alright you got to post your own topic at last. And we are unsure if a converter can be found.

American fittings are...

1 1/4" or 32mm. European fittings are 1 3/8

Essco part numbers FA-4520 for plastic
FA-7520 for metal

Sorry...

I should have clarified Trebor, I'm not sure if the connection on the LG is a standard size... Its not a matter of fitting to either the European or American standard but simply from possibly a non standard size to one of the standards... Its connection is set up oddly for a canister as the wand fits into the hose grip as do the tools, and unlike most canisters which have a piece of metal or plastic coming from the hose grip to connect with the wands/tools the wand and tools simply slide into the hose grip.

Hoover has bagless canisters, with Bissell and Dirt Devil.

Had to help a friend who wanted standard American attachments to fit her Miele


The adapter mentioned above worked like a charm

Got it here:


Hayden 1 1/4" Attachment Adapter - 05.077


https://www.vacsew.com/1-1-4-inch-attachment-adapter.html

"This is a unique adapter that measures about 4" long.


It is slightly under 1 1/4" wide (outside diameter) at either end, but the taper-length is slightly different. On one end, the taper measures 2", and at the other end it measures 1 3/4". This allows this adapter to be used to allow some Hoover, Filter Queen, and Royal hoses to to able to use standard "fit-all" attachments that use the American 1 1/4" standard.


Approximate 1 1/4 to 35mm and is made of rigid plastic.
