Which of those is the better cleaner for vacing deep down dirt?

Convertible has 2 brush & 2 beater bar roller

Concept & Elite have Quadraflex (4 brush/beater bar roller)

What kind of brush roller does the Conquest have?
 
The concept and conquest use quadraflex roller brushes, the elite uses a plain helix brush roll,no beaters. I have used elites and convertibles and I would have to say elites work better for deep dirt on low pile carpet, any plush carpet or higher pile carpet I would say a convertible would work best, but the belts for the convertible needs to be changed frequently for it to work well so there is that trade off.I think the concept would be the best of both assuming the brushes are stiff to clean low pile and the beaters work well for higher pile plus a flat belt makes it perform much more consistently.
 
Conquest

... uses the "Activator" agitator. Similar to the activator fitted to UK Hoover Turbopowers and Turbomasters.

The Quadraflex agitator was quite different. It had brush strips in close proximity to the beater bars.
