Sirena vacuum power nozzle died looking for better replacement.

[ryan7053]

I have owned my Sirena vacuum since 2021. I have been consistently dissatisfied with the performance and low quality of the original belt system and the frequency of necessary replacements. I find the current power nozzle to be generally underpowered and cheaply constructed. I currently possess the newer direct-connect hose model. I am inquiring whether a third-party vacuum nozzle is compatible with the Sirena's direct-connect system, as I am hesitant to purchase another Sirena-branded nozzle given my poor experience and concerns about the unit's overall longevity.

The cumulative quality issues are unacceptable. Not only has the power nozzle proven to be underpowered with a cheaply constructed, high-maintenance belt system that requires constant replacement, but the water basin itself has cracked despite strictly using Sirena-approved oils and scents. These compounding defects, including the basin's apparent inability to withstand standard use as advertised, clearly demonstrate a significant lack of quality control and durability in the manufacturing process. The company must urgently address these systemic flaws and return to the drawing board to implement substantial quality improvements.

Anyone know if this would fit the sirena? would it be worth replacing or should i just buy a refurbished rainbow? https://www.wessel-werk.com/en/products/electro-brushes/ebk-360

What diameter is the end of the hose. 32mm or 35mm? I would love to help, though it might be a bit of a guess.

Do you have anything with a central vacuum upper wand and cord control? I have magnified an image of the hose handle connected to the wand and that handle is not something I have seen before but the upper wand and cord control look like they might, maybe, be the same dimension as a central vacuum upper wand. If that hose will plug into a standard central vacuum wand then you have a whole world of alternatives.

I hope it is a standard fitting, though it wouldn't survive me if it isn't.

ryan7053 - Take your wand into a vac shop and see if it will fit onto a Wessel Werk EBK360. I think that will solve your problem. A year or 2 after Sirena came out onto the market, they had a black Premier Edition that had a Plastiflex crushproof hose and the Wessel Werk EBK360 pn with what looks like the same wand. Even the connection on the powerhead neck looks like what Sirena's powerhead has now! So I am certain this should fit and solve your problem. Good luck.

That was my initial thought, their PN is really just a low cost copy on the EBK340.

From experience I'd rather have the EBK340 than the EBK360. The 360 doesn't dig out the pet hair well at all while the older 340 has a stronger motor and despite having no height adjustment does a better job. Just my experience on our big area rugs and pet hair.

The EBK340 is a bit of an odd one really.

Old school. It has a big honking belt drive motor, larger than what's in the EBK360. It reminds me of a Sebo ET-C / ET-350 power nozzle. No height adjustment and no need for it. Just motors along and cleans. Doesn't care what kind of carpet you use it on. By comparison the EBK360 seems very fussy about the height setting. One setting will be too high and it misses all the pet hair, but click it down one more notch and the thing bogs. On two of our area rugs all it does is scrape the pet hair backwards and leave it in a nice neat line at the back of the stroke. No amount of vacuuming this way or that ever picks it all up. No such problem with the older EBK340.

Self adjusting sometimes doesn't work, sometimes it works great.
