I have an Oreck 9100 XL for the quick vacuum. I have a Kirby G4 for more deep clean and a dirt devil bagless for barefloors and portable Kirby Cannister for doing furniture. | ||

I did use my windtunnel but it kicked the bucket. So I'm happy to see this thread for great ideas for a replacement | ||

I use a Dyson DC14 Animal upstairs for the carpets, and my black 2008 Oreck for the hard floors. In the basement, I use my Hoover Anniversary Windtunnel Self Propelled for the carpeting and Kenmore Progressive canister for hard floors, carpets, and the stairs. All together, it is a great combination for my house!

Should also mention, I use my Constellation 86 for all my canister cleaning work inside. The hoover portapower is used for exterior, and heavier cleaning. I also use the royal 501 hand vacuum for that kind of stuff. :) | ||

This is how it goes with me: Whenever I fill the bag, I use another vacuum. I was using my G5 but Im now using my Tradition. And for dusting, I use my Hoover Portable. For stairs and furnitre, I use my Royal Prince Handvac. VW | ||

Currently using my G5, but I don't really have a daily driver... if I have a new cleaner, I tend to use that exclusively for several weeks. Otherwise, I go back to my favourites.

I must be in need of new meds guys. I have inside closet that I keep daily driver and sometimes a bonus machine to use, the rest lined up in the garage, sealed, not drive in style, with oriental rugs even! Well, this week, the closet has seen change 5 times! OCD? Oh please, probably worse than that. Never can make my mind up on what I want to use/ hear/ play with, or works best. Good I have a choice anyway. Currently there is stacked, Sliverado, T series, and Miele. U know what one I like best, but a bit heavy and clumsy in my smaller space and NO way when the sciatic is acting up. Everyone else completely crazy too? Only kidding a bit, take care guys, d.

I had vacuum loving doggies, too... Both would work their necks under the Rainbow D4 hose which meant they wanted to be groomed with the duster brush. Topaz would attack the P/N, but lie close to the Rainbow just running to freshen the air. | ||

Mine is a Kirby Ultimate G Diamond Edition. I have a new Sentria but I like my Diamond Edition better. And when I do all the above the floor stuff I use my Electrolux Ultralux or Gaurdian.. | ||

Speaking of pets and vacuums... Giving the cat a brush with Groom yesterday evening - he loves it! Not sure why the video came out sideways... just grabbed my iPhone to film with my free hand.

Jack, that is one hell of a cat! My lil' lady doesn't like being brushed (although she is long haired so it has to be done) and she CERTAINLY doesn't like the vacuum. She's alright with Henry and with the Miele...they're about the same size as her and she could probably take one of them in a fight lol. But the uprights? No chance!
Current daily driver is my Henry and my Electrolux Airclean :) | ||

Rex, add me to the list of people who prefer to use Kirbys, as well as Royal, for carpet and rugs only and my canisters(Rainbow, Fairfax and Lux 1205) for everything else. Today I used one of my Frankenkirbys, a D50 with Heritage handle and bag, to sweep the carpet. Then I used the 1205 to do the floors of the kitchen, both bathrooms and then vacuumed cat hair off the couch and bed spread. My cat, Shorty, is a long hair and has been shedding like mad. How can any animal shed THAT MUCH hair and NOT be bald? Oh,well. The vacuums are kept well fed.

I change my bags regularly~ sometimes as much as three times a week. If I pick up any items like mice poo, then I change the bag quickly after. It's a little workhorse. | ||

Good idea to change bags after picking up mouse poo-you never know what sort of bugs lurk in it.Guess pianos are nice,but noisey home for mice!The mouse must like music! | ||

TriStar CXL 2-speed w/VGII (Sometimes I swap w/all-bristle brush roll) The only thing I need is a good mini PN instead of turbo nozzle.
