Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

http://www.appliancist.com/vacuum_cleaners/electrolux-silence-amplified-musical-vacuum-cleaner-ipod-vacuum.html Electrolux have launched a cylinder vacuum cleaner with an Ipod Dock!! Frankly I like the noise of my vacuum. Perhaps this model has a loud motor?! Also: http://www.appliancist.com/vacuum_cleaners/ This model and quite a few "new" European models due to be launched in various parts of Europe soon such as the new "Ease" uprights from Electrolux, only betitled because they are bagless cyclonic uprights fitted with an auto rewinding cable. What will Electrolux think up next? We had auto cord rewinding uprights in the UK back in the 1970s!

Hey Venson
I think it will be in the States soon but possibly either around Christmas time or Jan/Feb for the U.S. Miele are having to change the battery type fit for U.S.

I knew TTi would eventually produce the same excellent Vax Mach Air series. Just found it on Wal Mart. This is the exactly the same model we have in the UK. You guys know it as the Hoover Windtunnel Air Multi Cyclonic UH70400. The difference is the rear hose fits to the left hand side on this Hoover compared to the central rear release on the Vax.

This gives a superb intro, use and general maintenance idea to what the new Hoover Windtunnel Air offers.

Not bad for a model that has been around since 1997/8.  Surely a signature model for the HOOVER brand.

1997/98? I thought this was a new upright from Hoover? It's a TTi model, Carmine 2009 model year from Vax.

You're right on this particular model.  I'm referring to the HOOVER Windtunnel technology which spawned the first model name and continues on since.  A model name and technology that has endured and flourished for HOOVER for many years first with HOOVER, then under Maytag, then Whirlpool and now with TTI.  A signature model name for the HOOVER brand.

Hi Carmine,

If I'm correct, this is merely a re-brandingof the Royal MRY001.  Royal, a holding of "Big Daddy" TTI I believe, has had this machine out for a long while but I suspect that someone feels it will move better on the market under the Hoober name.
