The 750.00 was an approximate price for the deluxe model which will accept an electric power nozzle, along with said power nozzle (the bigger one which will stand up by itself) and a turbo hand tool, and a hose/wand kit. and a parquet nozzle. Just the vac itself is 379.00

Effectively you could just buy the cordless motorized brush model that is in use with the S4 and put it onto the S140 series. Wouldn't that be cheaper to buy?
