An awesome weekend... ...thanks to the wonderful company and our ever-gracious hosts! Don't have any photos to share this time round, was too busy having fun... big thanks to Jon for the ride up, and Rich for the ride back. Ugh, back to the Indesit... xX

Unfortunately without examining the cleaner, I don't really know what else to suggest. If that much dirt is getting out of the bag, there just has to be a leak somewhere - and if you've tried multiple bags and found the same issue, it has to be with hose connector, or the bag collar design. I'm...

Hi there - what bags are you using in the machine? If they're not genuine Miele Hyclean bags, that could be part of the issue. If dust's escaping within what should be a sealed system, there must be a leak somewhere. Was the hose connector replaced before or after this problem started? If it...

Autodosing indeed! I believe I was actually demonstrating the merits of Never Losing Suction! Great pics, great people, great weekend! My place next time? Jack

Very cool! :)

Jon! Enough of this Miele-talk, this is all advertising!! Haha, congrats on your purchase, I'm sure you'll appreciate decades of great service :)

I love the Conquest, and that 'heavy object cleanout' is a great feature. Makes much more sense than Kirby's 'broken fan-blade trap'!

Congrats on your find! Hi Brandon, the 450's handle bail is not more deluxe, it's actually cheaper in quality. The 800's is a heavier, stronger, single piece of die-cast aluminium, whereas the 450's is stamped and nickel-plated metal. Although since it's lasted 77 years, you can see that even...

Some more old Mieles - pics from my visit to the company museum in March... http://www.flickr.com/photos/vintagehoover/sets/72157624275780518/

Since Brandon's already shared my photo of my Jubilee Model 800, here's a few of my 'coffee can' Hoovers, including the 925 and 800, on display at the gallery earlier this year. They're among my favourite machines of all time - throughout the production of each model, Hoover's engineering...

I certainly wasn't trying to be unfriendly, Gary. Just took the opportunity to clarify my comment! I thought perhaps you were implying a previous washer had used a similar technology in the past. :)

Why the grin, Gary? Perhaps it's not a new idea, but something that's been done before? I won't pretend my knowledge of washers is particularly extensive! But that’s not really what I’m getting at – I make no comment on the Samsung Eco Bubble itself. My point is that I welcome Mike's attitude...

Mike: Refreshing to see someone taking an open-minded attitude towards new ideas! :)

Great work! Good luck with the project - blogging takes a lot of work, but it can be very rewarding! :)

Nice work! Although if you're taking requests, I'd prefer some pics of the guys who work on the S7 assembly line ;)
