Fuller Brush canister - power head quality?

[panofan]

Anyone know what the powerhead is like on this one?

On their own website it is pricey, but it isn't hard to find this canister + powerhead going for about 250ish online.

Too good of a deal to be true? Major shortcomings? Has anyone used one of these?

We sell them all the time at the Factory Outlet Store, which is attached to the Vacuum Cleaner Museum. I demonstrate that model at least three times per week. It is less expensive than the Simplicity and Riccar canisters. The power nozzle works quite well, it has the drawback of a narrow brush roller so long hair tends to wrap around it. Like a Miele 217 power nozzle's brush roller. The power nozzle is light weight, and easy to get to the brush because there's no screws to remove from the soleplate. It does clean well, and removes Kapok (artificial pet fur) from the rug beautifully and fast. I love how QUIET the machine is, and what a great value for the money. The factory outlet store's price is less than the on-line pricing - which is what makes the Fuller Brush canister a great buy.

I have only used it at the shop I work at but would say that it is easier to move and provide better agitation than mieles small pn, the fuller brush pn has just as much agitation as the mid range miele pn but has a more compact size.For the price, its a great machine.
