No Sound?

Ok, somebody will want to kill me, but the old xxx got moved back into weekly rotation, its in the inside vac closet now! Guessing that the Silverado will move to garage, or the Kemore Progressive with $4.50 hepa bags maybe? Cleans ok, just not a good handshake, its a feel thing. PS, my xxx is a frankenlux from 3 units! But I sure LOVE it.

What about the bag and the cord?

Not only the sound of the machines themselves does it for me-it's the gorgeous billowy cloth bags when inflated! I love the shapes and colors! I just love the way a Kirby bag inflates! And, Royals, too! There is just something about it!

And, I was never and I am still not now, a fan of "Cord-O-Disappears"!! I like seeing the cord. I guess it's rooted from when I was kid that those retractable cords made the machine appear as though it operated on batteries. And batteries back then were not of the caliber that they are today. So "battery-operated" always (at least to me) meant, mediocre quality.

I guess for me it's part of the whole package... sound, bags, and cords....the overall form....!!!!

For those who like "poofy-Billowy" bags-you need a NSS M1-the top mounted HUGE bag is just right for vacuum lovers that like large bags.And the delightful "THOOP" as something picked up is blown into that bag by the HUGE NSS fan!And ProFlite has a large wide sweep upright vacuum that looks like a lawnmower-its bag sort of look like the grass bag on a rear discharge lawnmower.The machine is too bag for my home-but tried it out at Greenville Vacuum and sewing-It like the NSS-has a huge metal fan!When you picked up rice with it for testing-made really nice tinkling sounds as the rice went thru the fan.I want one anyway!-just have to figure where to put it and use it.Mike the vac store operator suggested I buy it and use it to vacuum large floors for hire.The machine and bag are a really cool blue color.This one vacuums a path 24" wide.
