Before I went on my recent Watermatic search, I was really eager to get a Silver King. I think the bare bones filtration system is interesting, precisely because it is so simple! In my mind, it is an honest bag-less system. Plus, they look really cool. Anyhoo, what should have been a pristine unit got beat to snot in the post. Propers to GreatVacs for having an easy return system! I just wish they had packed it better. I can say the Arus Lux I got for my aunt from them a while ago came in great shape.
The moral of the story is use extra padding and feel free to ask others to do so as well! Note that one of the casters was bent underneath the unit so it leaned and often didn't make contact with the floor. |

I had good experience with them with them.
I ordered a G4 but they were out of stock so they upgraded me to the Ultimate G Diamond Edition for free. They accidentally sent me two spot cleaners instead of one shampoo and one spot cleaner and forgot the Zip brush so they made up for by sending me 6 extra of their HEPA bags (which are actually really good bags aside from the tighter collar) with the zip brush and shampoo.
