What kind of vacuum can we use with it?

I just push the air out by hand. If you lean on it, you can use your body weight very effectively. I just went and looked at the instructions, and that's what they recommend, as well.

You have to have a vacuum that has a hose you can put into the fitting on the bag. The fitting size is universal to all the vacuums on the market today. I don't know if you read my review....but these bags work great for the first couple of weeks and then they loose their integrity and the shrink disappeared in everyone of my bags in under two months. I wish you better luck if you get these bags. Linda

I used the Dirt Devil Simpli -Stik vaccum which has a crevice/corner attachment. It's not expensive. Amazon sells it for $19.

You can use it with a regular vacuum if your hose is 1.25 to 1.50 inches in diameter. The advantage is convenience. No need to drag your vacuum to the bathroom, just store it there. Good results I recommend it!

Sorry, I don't know those other vacuums. I like this one but unlike an earlier model, the hose connects in the center of the top and it makes it harder to drag it behind you. It over turns over .... darn.

We used to have a model which attached to our own vacuum but this one, as you are aware, is a canister model. All I can tell you is that we are pleased with this unit and it seems to have plenty of power and suction. This is a great deal more convenient than hauling out the regular vac to hook up to. Good luck.

Its a good vacuum for both, but you have to make sure to empty it out after each use,else, the suction is significantly reduced.

I bought an extension plug to use with mine, however I was not pleased with the suction of this at vacuum and returned it. Loved the concept of having it readily available for my new car and it came with a very nice carry bag, but it had trouble vacuuming minimal debris.

The vacuum uses ~4 amps (according to specs). At that rating, literally any 3-prong extension cord will work. I'd suggest going to the hardware or big box store and just compare the cords they have in your desired length for the lightest. Or compare shipping weights on amazon for cords of your desired length and pray.

There are two different vacuum cleaner. One is an upright and the other is a hand/shoulder canister. You can't use them together. Two different machines.

I would call Dyson directly. I bought this for my Dyson, and I don't know if it can be adapted to other vacuums.

B Bags. Any generic B bag will work. Unfortunately, the bags featured along with this vacuum are not the correct ones. The cardboard part that slips into the bag holder needs to be larger than the ones featured. B Bags have the wider cardboard.Update:Just checked the listing of this vacuum cleaner and see that the bags recommended for it are now the correct ones. When I purchased mine, they had the wrong bags shown.

This fall we replaced our old vac with a Miele hepa vac. Again German made with high suction and a small canaster. A little pricey but check Amazon. We bought ours from a local dealer. Just look for models that are hepa. Neighbor has had one for 15 yrs and still going strong.

It's a vacuum...sure it will. just don't expect to vaccum the whole house with it.

The vac would work very well but keep in mind the hepa filter is expensive. Mine does a good job on floors but I,m using for lead renovation work. For other jobs I use a vaccum wih cheaper filters.
