Help me decide: Nilfisk GD930, or Aerus, or something else

I think you will struggle with a stick vac. I find that my 1200 square foot house takes 15-20 minutes to quick clean so your house might take an hour to quick clean or 2 to deep clean. I also think that a stick vac would fill up quite quickly if you have pets. I highly recommend looking to refurbished vintage machines to a. save money b. get a better fit machine and c. get a stock up on cheap bags. You could try an Electrolux hospital g as these are supremely quiet and have HEPA filters. That would be good for dusting, upholstery and hardfloors. And for the carpets someone else will be able to help.

Parts being discontinued is indeed a shame.

Story of my life. No parts for my Samsung power nozzles and vacuums so they get minimal use. No parts for the any of my several Swedish or Hungarian made Electrolux Group products like the Ultrasilencer but also several other Eureka and Sanitaire vacuums I have. No parts for my several Japanese Sanyo vacuums. Increasingly no parts for Tristars either, especially power nozzle parts. Try and find a geared belt motor for the old 2-101 power nozzle. Or the geared belts. Unobtainum. Starting to have problems finding good OEM synthetic bags for my beloved Lux D820. It's my curse.

Too many machines have been wasted because of a lack of replacement parts.
