Patriot.

Hey
There is a classified site you sale items on. I noticed a patriot vacuum for $35.
It is an hour and a half drive. I'm just asking resell value. The seller is holding for me until noon tomorrow.
I'd appreciate feedback.

That is a good price if it runs good. They usually go for over a $100 on ebay.

Mine came from an Amish thrift store in Colorado, for $15. Love the S wand, and when used with the cloth HEPA bags, it is a really good vacuum.

Update

I got the vacuum today. The owner met five minutes from my house. I got a for $25 instead of $35.
I've not used it yet. It had wessell week 340 power nozzle.
I'll try it tommorow.

The Air Storm takes Stormy Bags, which are hard to find. When I find them on Ebay, I buy them.


With that said, TriStar Bags will fit. They just are round in shape instead of the original shape of


Stormy Bags.

Thanks

I did notice the bag I found 2 places to get them.
I turned it on for first time and something was off. The motor filter is a double layered filter. I put a compact HEPA filter on it. The bag was the bag for the machine. With the tube for hose directly into bag produced an issue. The compacts and tristars had airflow across the top of bag. The Patriot bag is like wax almost. It restricted airflow alot. I put compact bag in the machine.
With those two changes I felt it's true power. I'm guessing up to 20 percent increase.
I live wessell werk 340 power nozzle.
It's pretty close in power to my çxl. My çxl needs bearings packed in motor but it doesn't affect performance.
It's a really nice vacuum.
