Surely you could've returned your "eurovac" for a refund/exchange and got something more appropriate for your carpets?

No refunds. So sorry. How it goes. Kenmore? I was using a Hoover. I wanted something better and I needed HEPA filtration for my allergy suffering fiancee. This upright and the Hoover are HEPA. I have some very old Kenmores in the collection but they aren't so good for cleaning and have about zero filtration. They are just collectables. My old Panasonics are better for cleaning and so much quieter but hard to find parts for and likewise lack filtration. Hoses are impossible (same for the Kenmores) so a modern vacuum has to do the daily cleaning chores. I have an MC-CG902 that is an excellent machine in most regards. Last of the old school vacuums you can still buy new, but you will never read about one here. About all it lacks is adjustable motor speed. For that you have to pop for an MC-CG937. Another C note needed elsewhere.

Metaphor/Turtle: So to what German brand and model are you referring?

Yet again your ignorance does you no favours, Metaphor.
Courtesy of Google search, the following threads from Vacuumland dating 13th November 2013 clearly shows a member buying the Panasonic MC-CG902.

Simply by typing in the model number, brand and then vacuumland produces results, Metaphor. You should learn to use Google in this way for any archive posts by current members. The first post with the mere mention of the model number on here goes back to 2012...

Okay already
We get it, sebo-fan, you always have to be right. As for you "waiting eagerly", leave Metaphor alone and drop it already! From what I'm hearing, the only ignorant one here is you. Knock it off.

Commercial-industrial generator bearings-as I indicated-these are used with pumpted and filtered oil.They support a generator rotor that can weigh up to 400 tons and turning at 1800(4 pole generator) or 3600 RPM(2 pole generator)Some very large syncronous "condensor" motors used for power factor correction at large substations have these bearings,too.The motors don't power a physical load.they are in a gastight enclosure filled with hydrogen as the generators are.The bearing pump system is designed where the motor or generator can't be activated unless the pumps are on and generating proper oil flow and pressure.The pressurized oil would actually be supporting the shafts.The generators above are in coal or nuclear heated powerplants.One of mans largest and most powerful machines!

It's not about being right, Jaker
But then again, WHO ARE YOU to tell me what to do? I really don't care what "you have heard" and "what you have been told." Maybe you're young enough to worry about what people say about you.
For me, this site is mostly about being able to learn from others and to be able to pass that information on. That is why I chose to join this forum in 2012. I have learnt a lot about brands that we don't get in the UK and also being able to view and look at other vintage vacs. If you fail to see that, then you have a lot more to learn about vacuumland.
This isn't a place that you can necessarily shoot from the hip without much evidence, let alone not really check out other areas of the site. Due to changes to this site, I am still learning on aspects that I seldom use - but I read early on by Googling on how easy it was to find archive posts.
I have been a member of this forum longer than you, Jaker PLUS contributed greatly to this forum. I deeply resent your comment because you do NOT KNOW who you are dealing with.
Maybe you don't want to know - that is fine with me - but don't ever tell me to shut up when it isn't warranted.
