First and foremost, gorgeous dog! Absolutely beautiful! There is only one flaw that I’ve found with floating vacuums. Coming from the northeast originally many colonial homes had wooden thresholds between their rooms. My ex had a Constitutional and it marked up the thresholds. Not so bad it authenticated the look of age but something to consider. I really like the Zero G but I think that I prefer the Miele and really like the Henry. One thing that still weighs on my mind is that a Miele is predicted to last about twenty years and all of my family’s Electrolux’s are older than thirty years old. Our model 30 is seventy years old this year. I’ve never seen a Miele President from the 1960s or older in operation on RU-vid yet I’ve seen eighty year old Electoluxes and Kirbys on RU-vid. You know me, I like to buy things once. My bedroom dresser is a 135 year old Flint & Horner and I try to do everything like that though I did buy two Tacony products and a couple of Mighty Mites (great on stair) and an Oreck for convenience. This was a great video Alex. Really great!
Keep in mind Miele was launched in Europe as a luxury product not too long after the war. People simply didn't have the disposable income for a vacuum of that sort (or one at all) and if the did they would've went with a budget type like a hoover junior of which many are still around. Also any country east of west germany was selling state factory designed products under domestic names. They're not around anymore because there was never that many sold in the first place.
I find it very hard to find a good quality canister with a power nozzle and all the attachments, and floor nozzle, brand new for less than $800. I just don’t understand why they have to be so expensive. This is such a fresh breath of air and I’m seriously considering buying one. Update: just bought it. So excited!
@@ReddieBeaty hi. I really did like it. I found with one of the parts it was the electrical extention pole that stopped working w/in a short time and the owner was great, offered to replace it for free. I also felt that keeping the parts together was a little bit of an issue since there wasn’t anything other than a mesh bag. The customer service was fantastic and the machine works great. To be fair it was a starter company. I was running a cleaning business at the time and I decided to return it, but if I was just to use it for my own personal use, I would’ve kept it.
@@ModernExcuses other recommendations would cost more, like the Miele, Lindhaus, and Sebo. Keep in mind that if you use a power nozzle it’s a house that is more than 50% medium pile carpet. If you don’t have that, you can invest in a turbo powered head vacuum, which is so much less money. A great brand for that would be NacCare/Numatic brand
I grew up with an upright and prefer them. The bulk of my collection is Kirby and Electrolux pre Aerus days. Love the old model G as it just puts. That said the luxe do handle like a tank. I do like my Filter Queen as the casters make moving better. I've had my Zero G upwards of three months and its changing my mind on canisters. Still planning on a Henry one day or two, maybe Cordless and 160 Regular or Allergy, paired with that great turbo nozzle.
Could the power head on the Zero G be any larger? An interesting vacuum, but it would be really nice if the head was more compact and able to fit in tighter spaces. The non-motorized smaller head is no substitute for a motorized head that’s just about as big as those on an upright vacuum...
