It even came with the owners manual & paperwork. Missing the grill for upholstery nozzle. What are the metal clips for & where do they go? |

I just had a question about those Compact's that I was wondering if someone could answer. How come the pn receptacle is at the front of the machine instead of the back closer to the hose? Thanks, Daniel :-) |

Another trick that works is a cotton ball with pure vanilla extract soaked into it. Put it in the hassock with the vanilla face up.
Isn't the interior cedar? It looks as though it might be. |

To get rid of the smell inside the storage chest,, try spraying the inside of the storage chest very thoroughly with regular Lysol Spray and then leave the storage chest fully open, out in the bright sunlight, ALL day,, from early morning til night, as long as the sun is out. Move it around if you need to, as the sun moves, in order for the inside of the chest to get 100 % bright hot sunlight for as long as possible. If one day of sunlight dosent kill the smell, try it again and again.

The ottoman is built with particle board type wood (what I call 'artificial wood') or faux wood. |

The tools shrunk at the end where the hose connects, how can I get them to fit the wand/hose? I also need the plastic coupling for the HANDLE end of the hose, the hose is just taped onto the wand. |
