What vacuum do you consider to be you most satisfying to use in terms of making you feel like you have done a thorough job? By this I mean how man pushes and pulls per path does it take for you to think that area is clean and move on ?

Personally, I would say my felix is the one that does this for me. The way it stick down on the carpet, moves forward on its own and vibrates the floor, I only go over the same path twice probably.
 
For me, it's probably my Kirby Heritage.

It's a damn beautiful vacuum with a damn good clean. The way it glides across the carpet is great.
 
Probably when on a Cylinder Vacuum when the head sticks to the carpet, otherwise if it's easy to push then it dosen't feel it's doing the job properly.
 
My Miele S7 does its job really well in one pass. It has REALLY fast airflow, and powerful agitation from its brush to clean thoroughly. I know it deep cleans considering its brush roll beats really well, but it doesn't seem to groom my carpet as nice as my older Dirt Devil. I think it's because the chevron brush roll with its semi-stiff bristles just doesn't groom as well as a stiffer non-chevron brush roll you would find on most other vacs. However, if it beats carpet enough to make crumbs shake all over the floor, and has the suction to make the crumbs move towards the power head, it's one hell of a deep cleaner for all carpets!
 
Montreal Aerus Vacuum

For me, it's probably my Montreal Aerus Vacuum. It's a damn beautiful vacuum with a damn good clean. The way it glides across the carpet is great.
 
Dyson DC08 with contact head fitted is an unbeatable floor tool for suction sealing!
Dyson DC07 Origin with seals in the soleplate are my favourites
 
I've owned many vacuums, but nothing comes close to my Kirby Sentria when it comes to cleaning ability. The Sentria's awesome airflow and agitation is what does the trick. The new stiffer brushroll does an excellent job of grooming my medium pile plush carpet as well.
 
Filter Queen! I have mostly hard floors, so it does fine by my standards. For carpet, one of my Kirbys or Royals.
 
For me, the most satisfying one-pass performance comes from either my Filter Queen with upgraded (EBK360) power nozzle, or from my franken-Royal (880 with a 671 motor). Before the Royal wound up frankensteined, though, I think my Kirby Heritage II Legend did a better job.
 
My SEBO Felix Classic does an excellent job, picks up pet hair in one pass and grooms the carpet. You can always tell when I've use it the carpet looks clean and groomed. Very versatile too. Properly one of the best vacuums I've owned too. Followed by my Miele S7.
