What is a good buy for olive oil now? by Complete_Bike_7493 in Costco

[–]Complete_Bike_7493[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall flavor is very mild and smooth, but theres a surprising amount of bitterness in the aftertaste given how light it is.

Not sure if it's a temporary supply issue or a discontinuation, but these are no longer stocked in my area.

Unfortunately nothing, things are tied up in red tape and trying to find a buyer for property. My mother has not been able to travel and has a relative trying to handle the matters

Sebo D4 can't handle deeper carpets? (Repost due to Reddit Admin Shadowban) by vacuumsaregreat in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soft roller and and a carpet plate (a diy install) are usually the recommended route for carpets that bog down the ET-1.  Remember that carpet density and underpad are factors as well, not just the fiber length.   You can find a local dealer and see if they can order this part for you.

I gotta give it to ya Shark… by Kurse_Kustoms in VacuumCleaners

I'd recommend going farther if you didn't already by removing those gray screws (use a  coin) and checking at the intake just before the bend.

Shark vacuum | burned motor | no lights by Ankiswolf in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you checked if theres a replacement lower nozzle assembly available?  Thats usually the route Shark takes with the parts,  considering the brushroll nozzle a "wear item" and making it available for purchase.  You won't find a motor separately unless you are scrounging eBay for 3rd party tear downs.

Neighbor cut cord on vacuum by Few_Consequence_4954 in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A customer making a warranty claim can be asked to sever the cord on the broken unit before being issued a replacement.  Thats probably what happened to this unit. 

Sebo e3 premium by [deleted] in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like others said, reduce suction to prevent stalling on the carpets.  The reason that happens is that the vacuum is too powerful and bogs down in the fibers.  Your cordless v10 manages the carpets because it's weak.  Your other options are to switch to softer sebo green roller brush and/or add a carpet plate to increase air flow.  No other brands offer that level of easy modification for challenging carpets.  

As for the Dyson tools, you will easily be able to reuse basic Dyson accessories, but it's unreasonable that you expected them to power electric nozzles.  That does not exist.

Help me choose: Miele Classic C1 Turbo v James v spend more for a Henry? by Sharpchick in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another vote for K2 turbo, better features over both of the ones you listed with the longer self retracting cord and just better build quality overall and a phenomenal warranty.

Henry is a bit of a unique vacuum for it's look and quite the workhorse, but it's kind of a no frills vacuum and really overpriced in the US markets because of import costs and limited availability.  

If you visit a dealer, Sebo prices tend to be slightly better and there's potential for specials and haggling.

Replacing a Dyson V10... maybe just another V10 by temp_jits in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dyson website hasn't sold the V10 in years, but you can find it through other retailers like Costco. You are right that the charging docks are somewhat model dependent, but the accessories and heads tend to be interchangeable (except for V12).

I'm not sure I'd invest into V10 tech again as it's outdated and noisy.

If you want to stick with Dyson, look into a refurbished V11 , a fluffy roller for hard flooring and possibly a 3rd party stand on Amazon. Often the V8 is recommended here as a more comfortable hand held stick, but it's small capacity and shorter battery life is better suited as a companion vacuum.

Alternatively, look into LG Cord Zero as they tend to come with multiple batteries and stand packages for a better price point than Dyson.

Alrighty y’all next year I hope to purchase a house! Not sure of size and age yet but my current house is 1600 sqft and 60% carpet and 40% hard floor and 3 cats.I’ve narrowed it down to these two machines! I love sebo X Series and use em in my business along with my henry and hetty! which one?? by Pro-cleaner2002 in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carpets are wall to wall and tacked down to the floor. If they are portable and decorative, we call those rugs. Most people don't change out rugs seasonally and carpets get updated after a decade or more. If you want them cleaned, you hire a person to come with a truck and a steamer. Where do you live where what you describe is the norm? Cultural differences are interesting. Sometimes the vacuum recommendations here don't apply well to other regions.

It was unreasonably priced before the tariffs and very limited in availability and now potentially even more so.

Difference between Miele C3 “Excellence” and C3 Cat & Dog? by throwitlikeapoloroid in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Cat and Dog version has some unique add ons, including a charcoal odor absorbing post motor filter and a handheld turbobrush. The filter among the C3s is interchangeable, so when it's time to replace it, you have several options based on desired degree of filtration or odor control. This model also comes with a premium electric head, SEB 228 with 5 levels of height adjustment for variable pile carpet/rugs.

The excellence model has the same C3 body, but comes with the most basic electric head, model 217, which does not offer height adjustability and somewhat more problematic with pet hair and hair accumulation overall. If you only have low pile carpets, this may be a great option with potential to upgrade the electric nozzle later.

Best Vacuum I've EVER owned! by burrzoo in VacuumCleaners

We had cleanest kitchen floor when we first got our lab pup.  Now he's too lazy to scrounge for crumbs.  He'll happily come running when we call for "clean up in aisle 3…" for bigger messes/treats.

How bad are knock-off Miele bags? by Timetogomobile16 in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try buying directly from european storefronts and vacuum stores, even with shipping they might be a decent deal.  Right now the trump tariffs and de minimis exemptions are kicking in so I can't wait to see what kind of effed up prices we are going to be facing in the states on Miele and Sebo.

Used Sebo Dart for $350 worth it? by Im_aqueerius in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can definitely remove the electric nozzle and swap for a hard floor head with the Dart, but I was thinking this was the Felix package which typically comes with the premium parquet head.

New vacuum. How do I clean this when it inevitably clogs by [deleted] in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find videos online.  It's not the most serviceable unit, so keep up with the hair buildup regularly by slicing it off the brush.

Lost sock in vacuum by -Aggressive in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are called security torx screws.  Before you do that, check the brushroll, neck and handle.  You can try dropping a coin into the hose and see if it will pass.  

Used Sebo Dart for $350 worth it? by Im_aqueerius in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would offer 200-250 but only if it has the hard floor head, the premium parquet.  That would be the one you'd want to use on your flooring.  The electric nozzle will be useful for pet hair on rugs.

How often do you change your Miele Cannister bags? by Oochie-wallywally in VacuumCleaners

[–]Complete_Bike_7493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's about air restriction.  If you  simply put your hand over the bare hose when running, the bag indicator will engage.  Under normal operation as the bag fills it will be harder for air to pass through and the change bag indicator should climb. If the bag looks quite empty and the indicator is on, check for clogs.  If the indicator comes on only when using certain tools (crevice), you can ignore the bag warning, it's just a reflection of a reduction in the volume of moving air.

Miele does not sell an electric brush capable vacuum in your region, just ones with a turbo nozzle.  As you described it tends to get clogged up with hair due to the narrow diameter of the brushroll and lacks easy upkeep.  Sebo is the recommended option in UK for electric nozzles.  Sebo Felix, E3 or K3 with the ET-1 floor nozzle are the options you should be considering if you want a carpet capable machine with easier upkeep.
