Unfortunately I do not have a dealer near by otherwise I would have purchased from them, assuming the price is good. | ||

Exactly I didn't see wires either, that's what made me think that yes it is brushless. Didn't really take the motor out to look at another angle. | ||

The TriStar CS motor is NOT a brushless motor. It is made by Johnson Electric, & it does use carbon brushes. If you look under the motor field coil, you will see the brushes. It's very similar in design to a Domel motor & the Miele Vortex motor. A fellow member & close friend, Piano_God, has referenced to it's design a couple of times in postings here on Vacuumland.

Brushless motors need a circuit board to operate them-no board in there! | ||

Kirbylux and tolivac Thanks for the clarification. I thought they needed a circuit board to operate. Kinda pissed that many people on here said the CS is a brushless motor. | ||

As far as I'm aware of, only two currently available portable vacuum cleaners made for domestic use have brushless switched reluctance motors. The newest model Delphin and the Rainbow. The now obsolete Dyson DC22 used a brushless motor as well, but I don't believe they sold well. The Dyson STICK VACS have brushless motors in them - but of course are not full size vacuums.

Tom I was aware of those models using them. You're right the dyson dc22 did not sell well due to its tiny size and almost $800 price tag. I just read so many people on here saying the CS used a brushless motor, I was hesitant but believed it anyways. Oh well. | ||

Exactly That's what I thought was odd as well. Aerus would certainly use a brushless motor as well | ||

Rob Hi Rob, rexair makes their own brushless motors for the rainbow. | ||

Mike
Why would you have been surprised that Rexair's motors use Chinese components? Even Electro Motor, the former Electrolux motor manufacturer, states on their website their motors are made in Tennessee with components sourced from their Chinese plant.
I personally don't see anything wrong with it, or using Chinese motors, IF they can produce motors or motor components of comparable quality to European or American motor manufacturers. Rob | ||
