The older style "TriStar-Compact" has better performance,the narrow intake opening on the "Lux style TriStar chokes off the airflow.The lower quality motor in the Lux style machines fails more often and has less power.The older machines had Lamb motors in them--MUCH BETTER!!!The newer machines plastic wands are wobbly when assembled and their contacts can burn.I am trying to stock up on the older type machines.One will be on order in the near future from a member of the vacuum forums.Liked the older powernozzle,too performed better.
