Vacuums are all about airflow. Suction power is secondary above 80 psi, which Filter Queens test consistently at 92. Airflow and the quality of sealing to prevent leakage are the two most important performance metrics that have a direct impact on carpet and surface cleaning quality as well as air quality important to this asthmatic. Filter Queen Majestic, Lindhaus HF-6, Nilfisk all have the high as irflow needed to avoid dust from the powerhead kicking up dust while vacuuming carpeting, degrading air quality (and making my nose run like crazy). BTW: The current powerhead has vastly improved edge cleaning capability.
hey nice filter queen. I just ordered one recently and should be here in a couple days it's a model 112b limited edition which is my favorite model from filter queen I have wanted one for so long and now I am finally getting one I can't wait for it to get here
Welcome back to RUclips Rob. That's a nice Filter Queen you have there, I like how this one is new enough to have the 3-position rocker switch, but old enough to have the older 2 stage motor. I had a vintage brown D31x about a year ago, and it had respectable power for a canister, but I wasn't too much a fan of its filtration, but then again those earlier vintage models didn't have as much of an elaborate filter setup like the later models did. And I wasn't expecting the power nozzle swap towards the end of the video.
Todsy you can get a new filterqueen from a vacuum syore that sells them or is a dealer for $1500. Go directly through the filterqueen company and purchase a filterqueen for $1000. Depending the type of bearings on the brush roll for the power nozzle, you can repack the bearings or you can oil them. You can also replace the brush roll bearings very responsible.
The original old style brush rolls had sleeve bearings, you can put a little bit of oil on those but really they don't need any if in good shape and clean. The old style FilterQueens were good as they had dual stage motors and the heavier power nozzle with a height adjuster and headlight. The current market FilterQueens are single stage, faster running motors to burn out quicker. The power head is very light weight and has no headlight.
Love this Filter Queen

they look like old style Electrolux brush rolls

I didn’t know you have viable speed on windtunnel canister? Think the rainbow D4 does that turn when turning switch on floor
Yes, this Windtunnel Ultra canister is TOL with variable speed.
Love this Filter Queen
