The Lux 1205 I have was taking up space so I decided to move it where I keep the car. Though the car can be vacuumed at the place where I take it to be washed, I did want the option of cleaning it as needed in between.The Lux's combi-tool for dusting and upholstery is doing just fine and toting the cleaner itself is no big deal. This arrangement has certainly worked out much cheaper than the Miele $75 turbo tool or the $150 kit. I can still get into crevices and even better because it has a blower, I can blast out what normally could not be reached by way of suction -- an asset as regards computer care. Venson
Hi Venson:
I'm not keen on the dual purpose attachments like the upholstery round brush on the luxes going back to the 50's. If I want to use the upholstery tool, I'll use one. If I want to use the round brush I'll use a rouind brush. Crevice tool the same. I realize it's convenient and cutzie, but give me the old fashioned one tool one use. Like me, old fashion. Carmine D.

Hi Carmine, I know but its old fashioned too. It came out with first of the Electrlux tank types more than fifty years ago. I find Electrolux's combi tool great especially for this kind of thing. (It also provides one less reason for banging my head getting in and out of the car to get things.) It's small and concentrates suction well for cleaning the low nap carpet in front and at the back of my wagon. All I have to do is turn it around to dust off stuff. Best of all, as I stated prior, its a cheap solution. The whole used vacuum, PN included, cost less than I woud have had to have paid Miele for its mini turbo tool. The only thing I don't like is that the Lux tool doesn't have a brush or velcro lint picker but Electrolux upholstery tools never did. Venson

Hi Venson:
It's correct to say I'm older than Old fashion. Carmine D.
