I have been having great good luck selling the Clean Obsessed tank type vacuum. This particular version is black and silver. With a power nozzle that features a serpentine belt for silent operation. The HEPA bags are awesome and I love the extremely high quality attachments.

Does anyone else sell or own one? I know it's available as the Perfect but the Clean Obsessed is so sharp looking and has all the 'extras'.

It sure offers a LOT of value for the money. With 105 inches of water lift.

Very nice! Like the telescoping wand to use with attachments. Is there an extra shorter crevice tool included? Looks like one is on the machine in the first picture. I like how they still use the Electrolux combo dusting/upholstery tool too.

I would like an LED strip headlight for the power nozzle though.

I do like that color scheme. Reminds me of the commemorative edition Electroluxes.

It's a pretty solid built machine.
Doesn't really hold up to a lot of the other machines in its price point. Particularly maneuverability it lacks a swivel neck and modern casters.

I'm usually too cheap to buy things brand new, but if I had to pay retail for a new canister I'd probably go with this. I loved loved my Electrolux Silverado but old age finally got to it and parts kept breaking. Miele parts are way too expensive for someone that has to change bags often. This looks like a great way to get a new Electrolux without an insane Aerus price tag.

clean obsessed vacuum

I think this is similar to the Perfect C103 that I have and if so, yes, it's a great machine. I can't really see colors so that doesn't matter in my case. Even though it's a plastic canister, it uses the same hose as the metal Electrolux cleaners such as the 1205 and Super J. The hose does have one design flaw unless they have fixed it, the suction relief switch is very loose and will not stay closed, it slides open reducing your suction at the hose end, I put some tape on mine since I never use it.
I think the price of this machine is very close to the Aerus classic.
The electrical connector is standard on the hose so if you really want a power head with a headlight, you could use a power head such as the Wessel-Werk EBK360 which has an LED headlight.

I’d just get a used Aerus Lux classic that’s in good shape. And if these are priced similar to a new Aerus Lux Classic, is rather have the original than a Knock off which will likely break sooner and who knows if parts will be available. With Aerus, at least they are fixable for many years. And the serpentine belts while quiet and more durable than flat belts, still stretch out over time causing stalling of the brush on the carpet. Not so on the Aerus.

I reply:
I have two generic hoses, one of which was with my Diamond J when I got it and one was with my Diplomat LX. The slide on the one I got with the Diamond J stays closed reasonably well on its own but the other one needs a little help. I just use one of those short, fat rubber bands they put around bunches of broccoli at the grocery store. They fit snugly against the suction relief, stay put nicely and are easily replaceable when they break or deteriorate.

Knockoff

This isn't really a knock off. There is a few companies who have machines like this.
I so Luke the styling and improvements made.

I had that machine on display at the Vacuum Collectors Convention in September. The retail price is several hundred dollars less than the Aerus Classic, and the Clean Obsessed has more attachments than the Aerus. The Clean Obsessed also has more suction and uses HEPA bags that the Aerus doesn't come with.

I don't understand Aerus's thinking on this. They have a good product, but they stubbornly refuse to innovate even on something as simple as the bag.

Perfect C101

I miss the Perfect C101 all-metal version. It's basically the same as the C103 just hammertone steel. I know they cost a bit more, but they were definitely more solid. Did they not sell well? I actually traded a Silverado to get one.

Perfect C101

I have the C101, it's a great vacuum. Looks very much like an Electrolux 1205 or Super J, it's metal and has a two stage motor that is quite powerful. I also have the C103 which is the plastic version, that's very similar to the Clean Obsessed version, same motor I think, I would say it's more powerful than the Aerus classic, though the classic is also a great machine.
