So I'm wondering how you all ( to what level) clean your new vacuums you get after your search for them. Do you clean them to different levels/degrees depending on your liking of that particular model? ( aka more extensive cleaning for more desireable ones and less detail/cleaning for lesser ones). I pretty much do a lot of cleaning AND detailing before I bring them into my house. Here are some pics of my recent Royal Deluxe Powerteam 4650 model getting detailed. I even clean out the bristles of the brush attachements!! Do you guys go that far? haha I will literally use a pick and pull thru the bristles until all deeply accumulated debris is out....using pressurized air as well.
Question 2 for you all: This is the first vac that once I went through it all...STILL has a funk smell that I don't care for and I"m amazed at this. I washed the motor filter ( this is a tank) and the surrounding bag, wiped down the walls of the tank compartment plus a new bag. I checked the exhaust w/o the bag in it and smells are still coming out the exhaust. Funk HAS to be accumulated within the motor compartment right? What else is there for stink to cling to?
