Peter, While I appreciate your trimming the previous posts, what the hell are you talking about in this one? You trimmed out all the context so I don't know who/what you are replying to/about.

Long hose, mostly metal and rubber, very little plastic, spherical wheels on the canister, uses a conical filter. Very quiet, fabulous suction, and fairly pricey. That said, my brother just had to put brushes and replace an inner filter he didn't know about on his -- after 20 years! Other than the dog eating the cord about five times, that's all that has been done to it. I just bought a used one, and I suspect I'll never use anything else. Great vacuum, lasts forever, still american made, believe it or not.
