Hello, thank you very much!
Yes the huge beast in the background is an Advance Carpetwin 200, never seen it working, It was just gifted to me and it seems to need a little bit of restoration. In my collection it takes the right place as a great example of large surface upright cleaner before the introduction of Sebos uprights, as well as the full sized Taski and Columbus uprights!
Yes I like Lindhaus vacuum cleanersand know Lindhaus owners in Padova, Italy. They manufacture great appliances and take much care of technological improvements without loosing simplicity and ease in use.
The Taski Tapitronic was the ONLY commercial clean air upright with using a by-bass motor (cooling fan separated from vacuuming fan), recently given up for exceptionally made motors in order to match the HEPA certification. I also have a nice Hako upright cleaner in red/black, just like a Lindhaus in a different colour.
Another thing that I like very much, going back to Sebo, is the use of their power nozzles for MANY other brands of commercial upright cleaners. For example Electrolux in Europe has often used Sebo pns for commercial canisters like the UZ 930, one of my favorites!
Could write for an hour so I quit,
