Tom,
<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">'preciate the info. I'm not at all familiar with Aerus's current models, so I'm glad to hear that yours--at least--is running well for you. Even though technology and manufacturing methods have changed over the years, it would be a shame if the current generation of sweepers didn't have any well-built models. I hear mainly about the poor quality of today's machines but not much at all about the good ones in the bunch. I'm not one of those who likes to categorize everything old as great and everything new as terrible. I'm sure all generations have had their drawbacks and successes--as your experience proves.</span>
