My New Aerus Vacuums

I think maybe the suction is just too much and the bags cannot handle it.... You really need those cloth layered bags, they just seem better constructed. Miele makes the best bags- hands down. Hope they resolve the bag issue for those of you who have the Platinum.

I am still
waiting for my bags and HEPA filter . Aerus was the pioneer in the 4 ply filtration bags from the very begining. I have never had any dust leakage in any of my machines until this Guardian Platinum . I havent used mine and I will wait until I get the new bags and filter .
I used the Miele intensive clean bags in my Capricorn and the air clean bags in my S7 these are the cloth type bags and I always had dust in the bag compartments of both machines . I am not sure about the newer bags but I had two cases of those bags for the capricorn left when I closed my store and used those only and bought a pack for the upright recently .
Brian ,
The Domel motor is an awsome motor I think its made in Italy they make very good high quality long lasting POWERFUL motors. You are so welcome Brian I may just have to get the new upright from you once it`s released . I also will be buying the new and inmproved power nozzle once its available . My first time in Jersey I was on the Atlantic city expressway in my Benz pulled over for going 98mph in a 55 ouch 2 points and a $400.00 fine .

<span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">I hope to buy the Guardian Platinum canister & Guardian Platinum air purifier soon. So far, I hear great reviews here on VacuumLand.

I have the Miele canister S2 for three years.... Been using the bags that are specified for it, and even used the 3M aftermarket ones, spotless inside. I even wipe my finger to check every so often. Maybe your Capricorns are just bad luck for you. I use the blue 4 ply Home Solutions bags for my upright Guardian, no dust inside, just very, very little or find dust at the base by the fan motor.

Gaurdian Platinum Bags
I called the 800 number for Aerus and the lady (Melinda) told me they hadn't had any other complaints about the bags leaking dust, but she is sending me a complimentary package of bags but no hepa filter. But I talked to Brian(Funeral Director) who sold me my Platinum, and he said to look at the cardboard the bag was attached to and see if it was bending in from the suction. It was bending in so I hope that that start putting a stronger piece of cardb oard on the bags to fix that problen.It would be nice to have the rubber gasket put back on the machine that went up against the bag....

Who
knows but my S7 also had dust in bag compartment ,my aluminium also had dust in the bag comprtment . I never walk in home with shoes so I have no idea where the dust was coming from . I don`t have to worry about that as I sold every Miele I have had . I think I will buy the Miele S8 Unique to see how that machine is .

I think GM1982 needs to start another thread since he seems to want to talk about the Miele machines more than the Platinum... LOL

Already done that a while ago.... the title of this thread is "My new aerus vacuums" So I think anything pertaining to Aerus is valid discussion here. I own (2) vacuums a guardian upright and miele canister. I talk about miele and aerus because that's what I own and can relate to. I am on here in hopes of learning about the new Aerus upright, not really interested in the Platinum. I still think its a top notch machine though. so.......

Are we able to post videos here? I'd like to see someone make a video of vacuuming the living room with the machine and using the attachments. Be nice to see it in action and cleaning performance.

aren't you guys
concerned with the dust leaking from the bag into the hepa? How long do you think that will take to be corrected?

Yes Mark
we are thats why myself and some others contacted Aerus and they are sending us Bags and a new HEPA filter . They keep telling us that not too many are complaining yet so only time will tell . Most people arent as passionate or notice things we do .

I think Dan brings up a good point. We on this forum are much more "passionate" about these sorts of things than the average consumer. I just hope that Aerus recognized that there is an issue and corrects it with new units being sold instead of waiting for enough people in the masses to call in to report an issue. Which most likely explains why others that don't have the relationship/connections that Dan and Brian (FuneralDirector) have are getting the "we haven't heard of any issues with the bags" or "no we haven't had any complaints like that" when they call the 800 number. It hasn't been flagged as any sort of issue by the company or by the dealers for that matter it seems. At least not yet.
The vacuum works so well, that the small amount of dust that leaks and is caught by the filter is not a "big" deal. Since I started using the bags from the pack I bought, not that came with machine, I have not noticed any leakage. The 'average' person, who is just trying to get the job done, and is not interested in vacs will never notice the issue. I feel sure Aerus will make changes to their bags and send anyone who calls customer service a new pack. Having said this, yes of course this problem should never have happened! But, the platinum is still a design success, and I feel will prove to overcome any shortfalls. Just my thoughts..
