beam vacuum
I have a beam unit here, it's in the classic series, the 275C, it came as a bagless unit with one of those filters, despite what the manufacturer claims, those filters do not clean themselves very well and emptying them is a mess, especially when it's not hung on the wall but just standing on the floor, all of my central units stand on the floor since I use them without pipes. Fortunately an adapter is available that converts these to use bags, and that's what I did, much better, no dirty filter and no bucket to empty. Tom, I am drooling over those canisters. Since Electrolux sold Eureka, kind of makes me wonder if Electrolux is pulling out of the vacuum market completely the way Panasonic did, or if they plan to continue making the higher end models such as the Ultra One. Also wondering what will happen to the Sanitaire brand now, I really like the Sanitaire backpacks. It would be kind of sad if the Ultra One's were discontinued, while I don't like the nonstandard hose end, that is easily solved with an adapter, other than that, they are quiet, powerful and clean very well. Hmmmmm, have not had that machine out for a while, I may have to do something about that.
