By what mechanism does the "automatic carpet height adjustment" work?

I am sorry to say, I have no idea :) - I have several different kinds of carpet and even hard surface and I don't know how it works, it just does - I go from one surface to the next without problem. There are no adjustment levers, etc. but this is an awesome vacuum! I have 2 long haired dogs and it works great.

Yes, at the bottom of vacuum it has settings for high carpet (that's what I use for new carpet), low carpet, medium carpet, and floors.

What do you mean? I would need more details to help answer that. I've used mine on bare floors on the carpet setting & it worked great...maybe just try that & see if it solves anything.

There is a plastic thing at the bottom that helps attach to your carpet and keep it in place.

I'm guessing your talking about carpet adjustment, there isn't a bare floor or high carpet knob but I think it just adjust it's self. I go from my medium high carpet to bare floors all the time. I love everything about it. Long cord, light weight, picks up great, love the attachment part, so much easier than a Dyson.

No. it does not have different height adjustments, but the way this vacuum works that is not needed. it does have two different modes, one for bare floors and one for carpets. the carpet mode has been able to handle everything for me from a small thin mat type rug to thick and substantial carpeting. I also have hardwood floors and it has worked perfectly on those as well. it even vacuums up all the dirt that is underneath the rugs! Very powerful suction.

It automatically adjusts. I used it for 4 months in Australia with no problem.

Sorry but I do not have any idea. I can say that the stubs on the bottom move along my rug. I ned to adjust it at least once a week and I have floor type carpet.

Height is adjustable by at least a foot. Manufacturers specs should list exact number.

This works wonderfully for my elderly father. It adjusts to the height needed. My father sits in a recliner lift chair.

No, it is manual mechanical adjustment. No automatic height adjustment motors either.

It has a telescoping handle that adjusts its length. You push a button and then can lengthen or shorten the handle length in increments. Not sure of the ultimate length, but the concept of the design is to allow you to easily reach high ceilings with the attachments. You will not have to bend over to vacuum floors.

It works great. I have carpet and porcelain tile and area rugs. I have some fringe (short) on two rugs and it's fine with those, it doesn't get caught. It makes the transition to all heights without a problem. The rugs that slide around (without rubber bottom) it tends to push them out of the way.

Only one other that I'm aware of....the foot rest height can be adjusted also. I recently replaced the rolling casters with gliders. The chair seat's spring action will cause it to spring away from you when you're trying to sit down ..if you're using it on any surface but carpet or rug. Hope this helps.

It says it adjusts but don't believe it. I tried with no luck. It would have only gone up an inch or two anyhow.

Jimmy - There is a knob on top of the base of the unit. This will adjust how close or far away the vacuum is to the carpet or floor.

Yes, it has a setting for hardwood floors, low pile and high pile carpeting. It does the job.
