As you requested Sandy i did a cleaning comparison between the Stock Tristar Nozzle and the Lindhaus PB14 using the pre-existing dirt hair brushed off my cats and litter for grit. I distributed the litter as best as possible then ground it. After both nozzles were used with clean bags i then took the Fantom Cyclone XT to see what was left behind by either, i'm dissapointed in how much either of them left behind honestly but i have a feeling i could still draw more out.
The bag on the left is with the lindhaus and on the right the Tristar |

Many thanks for going to all the trouble of making the comparison, and of photographing it! |

My opinion is that the lindhaus did slightly better it's hard to see how much was picked up by looking at the bag because of the angle of the shot i used a close to equal amount of litter on either side, but if you look carefully at the 2nd picture you can see more fine dust. Out of curiosity i also went over the area again with the lindhaus to see if any more would come up.
The lindhaus does have only one row of brushes, but despite that i think it does a pretty good cleaning and an excellent job grooming it pulled up the flattened sample carpet i had brought along to the shop just as well as the wessel werk EBK360 As for the fantom it's a decent machine. i also went over the area slower with it to get out as much as possible, when doing a test i use the fantom because the results are easier to measure and the performance level always seems about the same. Oh here's the what the lindhaus picked up after the Fantom i just got curious and wanted to see if it could draw any more out |
