Here's my opinion - so please don't cut me down for it.
One must remember that what people think on what terms "noisy" could be average to someone else. Whilst I'm all for written product reviews, not a lot of consumers are these days, because they can't be bothered to wade through material of handy info -they'd rather leave it up to the salesperson or Google the short answer. I'd say that this vacuum is noisy and that's from the machine alone and not from the PN> I can understand completely that some buyers are put off given that the German brands can offer a substantially lower noise from their units. Things move on after all in the world of floorcare - not all vacuums these days are noisy. But then consumers in the U.S who are complaining of the noise may also be adding the noise of the power nozzle PLUS the very fact that for all that the Aerus Classic looks like a beautiful machine and all, consumers might feel like they are losing out in terms of pricing over perhaps more expensive products, or likewise if the machines offer a lower noise value. Does this model have a variable suction control or do you have to put up with that whine all of the time? That Aerus model is however very similar to the one my relatives have in India, ASIA, under the Eureka-Forbes tag. It is a heavy beast in India, made partly of cast iron and plastic and I can't abide using it. It is very noisy and I can't hear conversation over it. I can with my Miele or Sebo vacuums though! |

Again it may come down to lots of variables that consumers are moaning about. Just respect them. I used to get het up with all the negative feedback when the Felix came to Walmart - the reviews on them were awful because quite simply it was obvious that a lot of owners didn't really see past the spec and controls.
Let the buyers be put off - more models for the collectors! |

But is that in mind of the power nozzle being switched on as well? I mean, correct me if I am wrong, all those statements from consumers regarding the noise as "deafening" may well be adding the noise of the PN in as well. I would assume that not all owners use these vacuums all of the time with the power nozzle attached?
Of course it isn't just the noise of the machine coupled with the PN added - but also to bear in mind the noise of the floors that the PN's have to travel or clean up on. |
