The answer is yes
we did Mike. I have the classic "Compact" style (actually two of them) which I am guessing date back to the 1980s as the flexes have moulded plugs on them. I have also, occasionally, seen the later Tristar updated version but unfortunatly dont have one of those. I also have the Italian Vortech version as well, and although its not bad, I dont like it as much as the older style which is both powerful and easy to use. The only drawback I find is the PN is a little bulky in my small house - although it works very well

Grab and go
Mike
I get the impression from other postings you have made that you already have a Miele Revolution, which I also have as my daily driver. The Tristar really would be no better (or worse) than this and indeed you may find the large PN a pain. I have an older Vorwek which is not bad but does not generate much "excitment" for me. I also have the impression (and please pardon me if I am incorrect in this) that what you are looking for is a quick "grab and go" cleaner for daily use - hence your trial of Sebo Felix and now looking at Vorwerk. From this point of view the tristar would have no advantage over the Miele as it still needs to be assembled for use. This will probably land me with a load of criticism but have you thought of something like a Dyson DC35 in "Animal" form as you have the dogs. I dont have one myself but I know others (not vacuum collectors) and they like theirs very much. And the price is not far off what you would pay for a decent used Vorwerk. I realise that you would probably have to empty it after each use if the dogs are shedding and it wil have limited operational time - but, for a quick daily whip round, would that be an answer?
