Lux power head cleaning performance Mike, it seemed to pick up well in your video. Good suction does help a great deal. I wonder if a beefier brush roll would retrofit? It sounds like the motor can handle it. | ||

Yes it picks up well, but the belt was a bit loose. I fitted the new Vorwerk ET 30 belt and now what a difference! No slowing down on the shag carpet. It has 150w motor so new brushroll wouldn't be a problem. | ||

hard to push It's a bit hard to push, but not harder than my Miele SEB-217 powerhead with wheels. After my small modification (small suction release holes) it doesn't stick to the carpet so much like it used to (due to the powerful suction). | ||

Powerhead works excellent on the shag carpet! New belt and lower brushroll position now. | ||

Hepa filter would certainly improve the filtration. Aftermarket (genuine not available) fleece bags are quite thin so tiny bit of dust will escape to the bag compartment. That's why I have upgraded the pre motor filter. Original pre motor filter is very coarse and it allows dust to go to the motor. I measured the bag casing for the hepa filter and 96 x 157mm is the filter holder size for the hepa filter. Bosch/Siemens hepa filter is interesting option.

Maybe I should post pictures of these HEPA modding possibilities later when I have the time... | ||
