I just want to thank everyone for the innumerable time and priceless advise given to me in the other thread. I read every reply in detail, took everything to heart, watched the videos posted and considered all the options given to me. It was not an easy choice by any means because each and everyone of you made an excellent case for each vacuum you presented me with.
In the end my love for vintage and the fact these vacuums may never be seen again (brand new) got the better of me.
So here is, my new vacuum cleaner. In so far I really like it and it works as advertised. I vacuumed the downstairs and upstairs carpets and it really does an excellent job. 99% of the time is sucks everything up on the first pass. Suction is almost if not just as strong as my old Kenmore Intuition. It scrubs the carpet and leaves great looking lines. It is quieter, glides easily and a bit less heavy. The LED lights work well, the dirt indicator light is not a gimmick in that it actually lights up when going over a dirty spot and shuts off when going over a clean spot. One thing I noticed is that not a single bit of sand, crumbs or grit was flicked out from underneath which I really, really appreciate unlike some other vacuums I had in the past.
Only thing I dislike is that the hand attachment hose is shorter, but other than that you get your moneys worth. And best of all it is based on an older Panasonic design which I love. It takes Type O bags which I think are among the best.
I am open to any thoughts, comments, likes dislikes ect.
