Thanks guys!
I'm still undecided.
Huskyvacs:
That's a good idea.
I did look around the store a bit, but not after spotting the vacuum.
I should make a return trip this weekend and see if it's still there, and if I can find the cup somewhere silly.
Dr. Patrick:
Thank you for the suggestion.
I would imagine that the Miele is probably a good machine.
I haven't really seen too many negative things posted about the brand in general.
But, as I think you suspected, vintage is a must for me.
I might just end up buying the thing, even if it's sans cup, and hoping that I can locate one somehow.
Like you said, Husky, maybe one of the kind folks on this site could even come up with one!
Btw; I like your videos!
