I decided to try some Capture dry carpet cleaning powder to clean some
of my white carpet, which worked really well! When I was using my
Miele Capricorn to vacuum up the powder after the 30 minutes you leave
it sit, I felt a couple of static shocks from the underside of the
handle. There is a metal insert that is supposed to dissipate the
static buildup. When I felt the small static shock, the Miele turned
off, but I could turn it right back on. This happened about 4 times,
only when it was sucking up the initial large amounts of powder. I thought I would include this post I made to another one of my vacuum groups.
