Vacuum Cleaners Discussions

Just as sealed as a Miele: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzCkHQNh1sA Also, look at their other videos, they have more suction than a Miele, too!

I see clear as day.  And there's a plume of smoke coming out into the box and out of the box.  The video ends but not before the plume is out of the box.  If the vacuum/video ran a few more secs, even you could see it, despite your rose colored glasses.

BTW, thank you for payinmg so much time and attention to me.  I'm flattered.  I have a 25 inch Full HD 1080 p HP 2509m high definition mutilmedia interface monitor.  Specially designed and marketed for graphics.

If you include the older Sanitaire canisters, the've made sealed systems for years. What's your point? The Hungarian bodies are pretty good (not easy to work on) It's the Chinese wands, hoses, necks and Powerheads that are problematic. Not to mention the nomenclature deception.

Oh right, so because it doesn't have air escaping to the naked eye, it's suddenly sealed? Get a particle meter, Hertz and see what happens! Once again, you use someone elses video without testing your own theories to make a point. And are carpets automatically safer when there's greater suction?? What about destruction?

I copied a pic from one of the posters cited in the link you posted above.  It's on another thread.  If you need help finding, let me know. 

A poster you referenced had just bought the Eureka-lux and took it through it's paces.  After doing so briefly he removed the bag took a picture of the dust leaking out of the new bag into the bag compartment.  He posted it for the readers to see.  In your haste you must have missed it.  Won't be the first time you posted a link with prima facie evidence contradicting your conclusions.  Keep up the good work.  I always look forward to your goodies here.

Hertz,

   A sealed vacuum is like the Aerus Guardian. From the power nozzle  thru the hose and into and out of the bag compartment. If you hooked up to a chamber full of smoke and sucked all the air our there wouldn 't be any smoke after the HEPA filter. Put a vacuum cleaner up to this and you would see if it was a sealed unit. Kirby, Oreck, Hoover, Rainbow will let out the smoke. These are not sealed units but talk of HEPA bags. The way the bags are on the Aerus bags and their compartment make for the best sealed area and cleaner areas in the cleaner.

Can someone enlighten me though, what is the point of showing air being sucked through a vacuum? Apart from the "polluted air" in a room that could be diffused and filtered easily, what point in terms of dust collection does this test provoke? In some ways buyers could misinterpret dust for the smoke, couldn't they? But dust is heavier in general isn't it?

Actually, Electrolux puts rubber grommets on their wands starting from the PN through the machine, thus making it as sealed as the most sealed system out there.

Dude, you're so humorous. I actually read every post, and he clearly states that the bag most likely as a small tear somewhere, and that other users on the forum have the Oxygen 3, and not ONE particle leaks. Do your research buddy.

Seriously? Smog/smoke is of an extremely small micron size, thus if there's no evidence if it escaping - like in the video I posted - it proves a sealed system. I have no idea how you correlate more suction to destruction, but given your obvious bias against this commendable company, I'm not surprised. Peace

Really?  Post it here if that's what he says.  Picture speaks volumes more than your made up words.
