Have had this for a month now and really love it! The Pet Hair Pickup is Awesome with the Attachments and of course the WindTunnel Action. Here are a few pics.

I think it's weird that TTI got rid of the main unique feature of the patented WindTunnel configuration for this unit. The WindTunnel design is based on the fact that when brushes hit the carpet in one direction, and the carpet fibres "fling" back into place, the dirt is thrown in the opposite direction. Therefore, if an upright's agitator is rotating from front to back in the cavity, a lot of dirt is going to be thrown to the front of the cavity - which is why true WindTunnels have a separated suction channel in the front edge of the cavity - kind of like a suction shelf. The downside of this is that you get a pretty deep "blind spot" for cleaning at the front edge of the vacuum. But whatever dirt is hit by the agitator is whisked away into the airflow provided by all the protected "WindTunnel" channels - including the one that runs over the agitator cavity and into the front edge of the vac. On this new T-series, it looks like the separate suction shelf on the front edge of the nozzle is gone. Wonder if the whole WindTunnel concept was "much ado about nothing." Hmmmmm..... would be interesting to do a side by side comparison of an original WT with this one. | ||
