They worked very well for replacements that were not from the original company. The price was more than reasonable. I shall be buying more in the future.

Dyson DC07 All-Floors Cyclone Upright Vacuum Cleaner



Screamin' Yellow Machine
This is one powerful vacuum. I researched it on the internet (Dyson has a great web site) and read about it in a couple of magazines. I was impressed and decided to try it. After using it in my country home I can say it's close to, but not, alas, perfect for my needs. I have a mixture of floor surfaces; hard wood, linoleum, tile, wall to wall carpet and LOTS of area rugs. And I have plenty of dirt, pets and people running through the house in all seasons. The Dyson is great on everything EXCEPT the area rugs, which it has a tendency to try to gobble up... The suction power is irrefutable and I will never look at my (or anyone else's) carpets the same way again. I pulled 3 cannisters of dirt, hair and sand out of my 8' x 11' area rug with the first use of the Dyson after a recent run over the same rug with my old vacuum! Unfortunately, the Dyson also tried to eat the area rug and made a horrible sound while doing so. After a toll free call to Dyson's service center (at 5:30...

Good machine with limitations - and some IMPORTANT user-maintenance instructions.
We bought the Dyson DC07 in Dec. of 2002, and it gets used for approximately 1 hour x twice a week on carpet. Our unit is out of warranty.

In the vacuum cleaner market that, in our opinion, is dominated by poor product design, plastic parts that break easily, motors that burn out, belts that stretch and break, expensive bags that fill up virtually instantly, and a very short useful life, our Dyson has acquitted itself rather well.

Many of the other favorable comments about this Dyson apply and will not be repeated here.

We would add that Dyson has good telephone customer service as well as an on-line diagnostic guide.

We note the following negatives:

- The "off the floor" hose suction is not as strong and is much more awkward than with a "tank type - non upright" cleaner. If you are doing mostly off the floor cleaning, probably no upright is recommended.

-While it is NOT in the instructions, customer service will tell...

So you wanna buy a Dyson...
I used to volunteer with the local Police department and soon became familiar with an interesting trait of unfortunate victims of crime: Ten people might witness a bank robbery and give stunningly different descriptions of those involved. One would see a red car, another a white car. One would see 3 people, another 1 person.

So it is with vacuum cleaners.

Like many readers, I read through every Amazon review before purchasing the 'yellow' Dyson DC07. I resisted writing a review until now, using the vacuum approximately twice per week for the last 6 months. The summary? The Dyson's ability to pull dirt and hair from carpets and floors is simply stunning, something you have to try to believe. I have found some drawbacks, and if you've read other reviews, they may look familiar. Some of my negatives:

When trying to clean under the 4 inch overhang on my floor-level kitchen cabinets or furniture, the DC07 does not reach under it very well. This...

LG HomBot 1.0 Robotic Vacuum



LG Hom-Bot vs. Roomba 780
A couple of questions someone might have in evaluating whether the LG Hom-Bot 1.0 is right for them may be:

1) Is an automated vacuum robot right for me?
2) Should I buy this over a Roomba?

In answer to question 1), my thoughts on these types of devices are this. They are an awesome little tool to add to your vacumming arsenal, but not in my humble opinion a direct substitute for a full size vac. I now have a Roomba 780 and the LG Hom-Bot. For me these make excellent hard floor dusters adding another weeapon to keep the pesky dust bunnies at bay while allowing you to attend to other things.

Here are the pros and cons of the particular unit as I see them:

Pros:
* Super quiet. In comparison to the Roomba, it is like the LG isn't even on.
* Sleek and modern design. To me the Roomba design is slightly better, but the LG still looks quite good in my opinion.
* Automated vacuum. How awesome is that? Kicking off a little...

LG Hom-Bot 1.0 versus Roomba 770
I presently own two different robotic vacuum cleaners - the LG Hom-Bot 1.0 and also the iRobot Roomba 770. I will preface this review by mentioning that my entire house is floored with wood and tile. I have no carpet at all, other than a small area rug by the front door.

I received both of these robotic vacuum cleaners at no charge, as part of the Amazon Vine review program. However, robotic vacuum cleaners are expensive, and I try to base my reviews as if I had actually spent my own hard earned money on the product. With that being said, if I had purchased the LG Hom-Bot myself, I would have returned it for a refund and purchased another Roomba 770 instead.

I will list my thoughts about these two similar robotic vacuum cleaners:

~The Roomba 770 can be programmed to run at a certain time each day. For example, I have mine programmed to run at 3:00 PM on M,T,W,Th,F. On the weekends, it is programmed to run at 10:00 AM. You can use different times...

A nice little unit
Having had no previous experience of robotic vacuum cleaners, I had nothing with which to compare it, and no way of knowing what to expect in terms of quality and funcionality. I was quite pleasantly surprised. It seems well constructed and quite robust. Considering that it is powered by a rechargeable battery, one cannot expect it to vacuum with anywhere near the suction power of a mains-powered cleaner, but still, it does a good job. It can't reach into corners because it is round, so it can't really be considered a substitute for a mains-powered vacuum, but it's great for keeping the general floor areas free of small debris and dust.
It is not noisy at all, and moves around happily on its own, dealing with obstacles, wall prtotrusions, and transitions from tile to carpet, without any fuss. It finds its way around the home very well, and never misses a room. It also finds its way back to its charging station quite well, and it hasn't got itself lost yet.
The dust canister...

Atrix OF612HE Hepa Filter for Omega Series, 1-Gallon



it's the one
How could I complain? It is the exact filter I needed for the vacuum I have. I'm thinking that is a win win situation!

Roomba 400 Series Accessory Kit - Includes Side Brush & Filter - iRobot Replacement Brush & Filter Kit



Perfect and Good Replacement
The side brush and filter fit perfectly on my roomba 400 series. The brush does not come with the small, very thin washer - so be careful to get it off your old brush. It's very tiny so look for it and save it to use on your new replacement brush.

It's simple and it works!
What more could you ask for? Its a simple replacement when your brushes break. I've had my Roomba for 5 years now and its one of the best products I've ever owned and with this replacement/repair I can keep using it!

Replaces what needs replacing the most
The original filter and brush needed replacing after the first year. Very convenient that there's a kit that includes just those two pieces.

Proteam 6 Quart Provac Back Pack Vacuum Commercial



Very Good Vac
I saw a cleaning service use this vacuum and decided to purchase one for our home. It does a good job on dog hair and signficantly reduces the time it takes to vacuum. I'm surprised the manufacturer doesn't sell to the residential market. I think many more people would be interested in a backpack vacuum. It's great.

Pro Team Megavac
This backpack vacuum is Pro Teams largest and most powerful. I use it for cleaning houses, boat, and car. Quality and performance is excellent. It is a tad heavy and bulky. I would have preferred a slightly smaller model, but the smaller units have smaller motors.
My only criticism is that the covers on the top and bottom continually unscrew themselves and fall off (no matter how tight they are screwed on). It is difficult to screw them back on without taking the vac off. Quite annoying.

Pro-Team MegaVac Backpack Vacuum
We are very happy with the products. We manage a condominium complex and this vacuum makes it easier to clean under the beds. Would definitely place an order for this product again
