Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Sept Issue addresses Allergies and Vacuums..... Miele S7 Gets top rating for Upright. Electrolux Oxygen tops for Canister. (Well it won't help canister sales for me but I'll stock up on hoses, PH necks, wands and such for repairs). Hoover canister is second (wait till people realize if they burn out a PH motor they are no longer available. Strange as the machine is barely a 2 years old model.)

The counter does sell vacuums, specificly Miele vacuums because the hepa is sealed and at the end of the air flo, now it doesn't tell you whats in the dirt because like the Sebo x4 will get a high reading of probably carbon dust from the motor as opposed to say a Bissell supposed hepa that gets a horrendous reading which I'm sure is your houshold dust because you can see it pouring out, in my store when I walk in with my IQ air running all night the air is excellent, below 100,000 ppm but if I turn on just about any bagless (except Dyson) the reading around the room will jump into the millions, a Miele Hepa vacuum and IQ air combo will reduce allergens in any home significantly, any vac without a hepa filter at the final exhust will range from 2-3 million particles

Well the SEBO X range does have a carbon filter fitted above the floor head but as you know the Felix is quite different in this respect. I was just interested, really as Gerry Rubin states quite categorically that SEBO vacuums don't have a low reading, yet fails to provide evidence. Gerry Rubin seems to be all talk and no action sometimes!

As do many single brand vacuum salesmen, he has a tad of larceny in his heart when it comes to his sale's pitch.  Not to offend him, or disrespect his sales skills for MIELE because he pitches and pushes the brand very well.  MIELE is his forte.
