Tristar CXL Fail....?!?

[djkain2007]

Yes, my wonderful tristar with the Eurkea VG3 PN (which i use way more than the original cxl power nozzle {"turbo brush"} ) has failed me :-(

So i went to shampoo my room with my G3. I vacuumed very throughly with my dads Eureka Capture Plus Pet Lovers Bagless POS (cRapture as i call it) and then shampooed. After letting the dry foam set for 10 mins i ran over it again without the suds flowing out (using the fluffer thingy to work in the suds) afer letting the floor dry, i vacuumed again with the cRapture and to by shock there was quite a bit of sand and shit in the container :-O (shocked), i almost died.

Why did i use the cRapture? Because it's bagless so i can see what comes up and if i suck up water, it won't hurt it (much)

Your vacuum is working just fine

Shampooing always loosens embedded dirt from deep in the carpet it is normal to pickup more dirt after shampooing.I recommend shampooing carpet twice a year.

You'd be amazing at what can be stick in carpeting, especially if you only vacuum 3 times a week. I vacuum my entire house at least twice a day, and I shampoo the entire house once a month. After vacuuming when I am finished, it pulls out a lot of dirt, because the shampooer does loosen it. It is completely normal

yeah.... i vac AT LEAST 3 times a week, usually every day since the dog sheds like a maniac, but she's getting evicted,
