You need to try a Numatic Henry or James! James runs about $270.00 and Henry about $50.00 more. Can't be beat! Far out perform a Miele!

@luxflairguy I do Want a Numatic Henry! Maybe that will be the next Patreon purchase.

Isn't the James slightly more troublesome compared to the Henry/Hetty due to the manual cable rewind?

As compared to a Miele, their motors most probably have a greater dust tolerance, plus their bags are double those of Miele's GN bags. They are nice heavy duty machines, but for the indoor home use, a Miele is way more refined and pleasant to use. I'll trust a Henry for anything that takes a beating. Here's a Henry that helped in getting a car back into service ;-)

@captainslow

Amazing catch! I would have never even noticed that with how much is going on in that scene!

The only straight suction machine I love was from 98 years ago!

to me id say the older vintage genuine Shop vac not the modern round model i mean the older shop-vac 5 gallon detachable blower those thing suck ! in a good way

To be successful as a straight suction canister, the rug tool is key. Filter Queen still makes a great rug tool, and their machine can be purchased as a straight suction canister. Air-Way had an awesome rug tool as well.

Henry and Miele

the Henry is a great machine, very quiet and powerful. I also enjoy my Miele C1 Olympus. And, if you get a straight suction machine, it is possible to add a power nozzle later, you could get the Tacony Volt, and Perfect Products now makes a battery power nozzle as well. These will clean carpets far better than any straight suction rug tool.

I am in agreement with Tom

Air-Way, and Filter Queen have great straight suction rug nozzles.

Rexair (Rainbow) had an awesome straight suction nozzle, as did the Hoover Portable (suitcase model).

You beat me to it!
I just finished vacuuming through the first floor with my Hoover Portable.
Since it's the only straight suction vacuum that I have any real world experience with, I was going to give it a vote.
I'm surprised how well it does getting cat fur off the braided rug.
And on bare floors, I'm impressed with the edge cleaning.

I was sure nobody else was going to be mentioning it!

I’d have to say that my favorite straight-suction vacuum is my Craftsman leaf vacuum. Does that count?

Ok, if not, then give another vote to the Sebo E2.

other great straight suction machines

I love my Sebo airbelt D1, that's a beast of a machine! I also love my Electrolux Ultra One Classic, that is one of the quietest most powerful canisters available. This isn't made anymore but I love my Eureka canned ham from 1958, love the smooth sound of the Lamb Electric motor in that machine.
I also love my backpack vacuums which are straight suction, although I do have a kit that will let you add an electric power nozzle to a backpack. Many people associate backpacks with commercial cleaning which they are, but they are also great at cleaning residentially as well, especially if you want to clean ceiling fans or cabinets, for that, a backpack or central vacuum are the best options.

A straight suction cleaner so far not mentioned-------The NSS M1!!!!!Otherwise its the Sebo,Lux,Meile for me as well.
