We have a small house, small rugged area and a very big hairy dog. One bag lasted 2 months. Also had a bagless and find this so much easier, cleaner- no dust blow black when emptying -and healthier. The super lined bag traps every dust particle. Suction is definitely stronger than bagless and previous Kenmore canister.

I had a Littermaid first & couldn't get it to cycle reliably. I also disliked having to buy fecal receptacles specially designed for the Littermaid. With the Litter Robot any small trash bags will work. It also does a better job of keeping the litter contained if you have a messy cat like mine. Litter Robot has a higher up front cost but I've owned it for over 5 years now & it still works.

Great Question :) Just keep in mind that the Prolux Stealth is a high end 600 dollar plus vacuum cleaner. Dont think of it as a low end 200 dollar vacuum that uses paper bags. Just because we are selling them in that price range remember that most people sell them for 600 plus. So the high end vacuums like this are Prolux, Sebo, Miele ect. They all use a HEPA bag not a paper bag. The reason HEPA bags are so much better is not only does it improve allergies but it causes your HEPA filter to last so much longer. For example the Miele bags are $4.73 each and you will see the Prolux HEPA bags are much cheaper than that. Also the Prolux HEPA bags are very large and last a long time. So lets say you bought this vacuum and started putting low end paper bags in it. You would probably have to change your HEPA filter every 6 months vs. every 2 years with the Prolux HEPA bags. Let me know if you have any other questions :) Thanks Dustin GreatVacs (Seller)

Funny you should ask... I ordered the Smart Living Steam Mop, but got the Express and was totally confused about why the packaging and name was different from what I thought I had ordered. The unit and its parts look similar, I've been using it, and it seems to work well enough, but I wouldn't have paid this much for it if I had known because the only reason I spent the $$$ on this was because someone recommended the Smart Living Steam Mop. The other answers here are mixed. Is it or is it not the same company/vacuum?

We have tried both the Roomba and Neato, and much prefer the latter...bought a 2nd Neato, and retired the Roomba. It works more efficiently, better shaped for corners, more user friendly with programming/prompts. At least this is what my cleaning expert (wife) tells me.

the sana gloss is a little more expensive, but it stays clean longer- doesn't pick up any water stains (etc). I picked up a sanagloss model because it was on sale. I would normally buy the eco drake normal model otherwise ( I have purchased 5 of those). Great toilets!!!

The newer model is slightly larger, but weighs less than 14lbs. which is 8.3lbs. LESS It has 2 additional brushes which are specially designed to cover sealed hardwood floors and tile & grout. 360 clean: SpinScrub Technology gently washes and scrubs hard floors from all angles. Wash, scrub & dry: Switching between options is a snap. CleanBoost Control applies extra detergent to stains and heavy traffic areas. 11.5" Removable Nozzle provides a combined squeegee and suction to quickly dry. Removable for easy cleaning. It uses several different Hoover cleaning solutions, the Hoover Multi-FLOORPLUS 2x concentrated is great and you don't need much unless the floors are a high-traffic area or very dirty. There are solutions designed for use cleaning grout and another for wood floors. I like that it leaves the floor so dry that there are no steaks and so clean that you can feel the difference with your bare feet. As I said, I didn't have the previous version, all the technical information I found on different web sites and the last is my personal opinion and observation. I have other brands that called their brands (Shark, Bissell and others) that said they were cleaners or sanitizers and all they did was much around hot, dirty water. The only difference between them and mopping is that they were easier to push around, the water remained hot, and you were not bending over to wring it out. Even the ones that said they dried the floors, did not unless you went over them at least at least three times (it varied, depending on the humidity level). There is nothing worse than pulling up water that is not clean after you have used the machine at least twice. It is discouraging and disgusting. That is why I LOVE this one, it cleans using very little of the 2x solution (a small bottle is included) and then removes the water leaving you with a clean, dry floor without streaks. It is lightweight and I am nor writhing in pain when I finish.

I can't tell you what the differences are as I am not acquainted with those models. However I love the one I have. It has plenty of power and is very user friendly. Switches easily for different cleaning needs. I have no regrets with this vacuum.

It was my second choice. The Panasonic was $150 more(at the time) and I liked the sealed motor on the Prolux 7000. I had a older Panasonic industrial before before but it was not as good, smaller motor, more plastic parts and kind'a noise. But the Panasonic is still a good sweeper. Its your money I can't tell you which is best. I just liked the Prolux more for the price. Time will tell it I made the right choice. My girlfriend thought the red color was bad ass and as long as she is on the other end of it (and not me). What mom'a wants mom'a gets!

I honestly would not get this unless you absolutely need a stuck vac. I just bought the DC50 Animal upright and LOVE it! The difference I believe is in the bristles in the brush. I would really suggest looking into the DC50 tho. It's a smaller, more compact upright, but just as powerful as a full size.

I have one, my wife has the other. Both are very easy to clean. I like mine the best but she disagrees. Obviously you can't go wrong either way.

Hello Beach Mom, looking at the carpet cleaners side by side they look the same. I think the all terrain must be a newer model. I purchased the max extract dual v in early 2012. Reading the information on both cleaners it looks like the all terrain model has a heating element to heat up the water. The price is about $40- $50 higher on the all terrain model.I would suggest you read reviews on both models to help you make your decision. I am sure you will be happy with either model. Good luck.

It's hard to say. Maybe if you're renting a house you could just go ahead with a cheaper model. The reason why I wanted a good sweeper is because we paid $3,000.00 for new carpet in our house and I wanted to do everything I could to make it last. We're planning on staying here a long time. Having a dog and a cat (and a three year old daughter) is hard on the carpet. It would be nice if you could go to your local Vacuum Center (if you have one close by) and see about renting different brands/models before making a final decision.

I have both, and I would definitely get the Roomba first or only. The scooba works , but not that great. It gets stuck a lot, filters clog on dog hair fast so you would have to run the Roomba first anyway.

The one that I own does not. Many features that it has is exactly like a roomba. The price of the clean mate is much less. I love it. I feel like it's well worth the investment.

I really don't think I can help with this question. The only thing I can think of with a difference would be this one has all the attachments and the steam 100 lhr doesn't. So if you only want to use the product to steam floors, then the cheaper would probably be fine. The one with attachments, expands your cleaning options to other areas of the house.
