If it's lighter and more durable, why do you consider it a mistake? |

I have to agree, I have no desire to own the new Sentria simply due to the amount of new plastic in the machine. I think they would be smarter to come out with a new line of small head, non-self propelled models. Also they need to go back to the orginal style of tools. While we vistited the factory in August I was amazed at the quality control that goes into thier products. I can only be hopeful that they have tested the plastics and know what the stress and wear factors are. Self propelled doesn't do anything for me. Hoover, Kirby, Sears or Eureka, I have used them all. Hoover and Sears were probably the worst as far as being jerky and hard to use. Kirby was at least smooth, but the transmission noise drives me nuts...now Eureka in my opinion probably has the best self propelled action out of any I have used...again this is just personal preferance... But the truth of the matter is, if you use any vacuum properly, have it adjusted properly, you should not need the self propelled feature... Now I am just rambling...plastic verses metal...metal all the way. Morgan |
