Is the elctrocomfort attachment good on hardwood floors and tile as well as carpet? The manufacture seems to indicate it is good for both. Is there an advantage to the parquet floor brush for hard surfaces? Is it really necessary to have both, which...

Hello- we purchased the Delphi and the special parque floor brush about 2 months ago and love it. We use it on our rugs, hardwoods and kitchen tile. It works great. I had borrowed my sisters previously before buying to make sure it was worth it and it was! In fact my parents got one too because they were so impressed with its versatility and effectiveness (we have a 1 year old, 3 year old and a cat) so we use it every day !!

No there is no special attachment for tiles or linoleum...there is a switch modifier on the Bissell for floors or tools as well as one fo just rinse water when you're done and i've used it to do my kitchen floor on several occassion ( the floor is linoleum). I would however have resevations ( big ones) about using the brushes on wood floors!

The Oreck is excellent on carpet as well as ceramic tile and wood/laminate floors (they recommend using the lower speed for smooth surfaces but the roller brush has not been abrasive even at the higher speed; area rugs can be vacuumed at low speed without tangling); no attachments, so can't use on furniture. GREAT on pet hair!

I have hardwood floors with area rugs. It works ok on the floors but the only con about the machine is no floor attachment to really hug the floor. I still wouldnt trade it for any other machine. It really picks up pet hair well. I use the plastic wand pieces to get along the edges of my floors.

Kind of....I just bought one to help with finding floor joist for "squeak no more" screws. Carpet is about at the max range of the deep setting. I pushed down on mine while scanning and it will try to display some of the segments when it gets near the joist. It worked fine on hardwood parquet flooring. I tried both this e50 and the more expensive one on display at local Lowes store, and the e50 would sense the stud better from the furtherest distance than the higher end model, so I went with the e50.

This is a great vacuum if you have tile or hard wood floors. If you have carpets or rugs, look into getting an upright with a roll brush. It picks up everything in it's area. I love mine but only have a few area rugs. Hope this helps.

I use this vacuum on hardwood and haven't noticed any problems. For the money I think this is a great vacuum. I have another Electrolux at 3 times the price and I actually prefer this one.

In my experience, it has worked well on both hardwood floors, as well as carpets. I have been very pleased with my purchase. I hope that helps.

This vacuum is ideal for hardwood floors. No brushes or moving parts touch the floor - just a soft rubber line that moves the dirt towards the suction. I have wide plank exotic Kempa wood floors and ceramic tiles - works great on both.

I purchased the DC28 a few weeks ago and recently took it to task on my hardwood floors. This vacuum has a "bare floor" setting, which stops the brushes completely; however, the suction action remains the same. When finished, I did not notice any scratches or scuffs on the floor (my floors are stained with two coats of Minwax polyurethane).

The standard brush is fine and I used it for six months. However, I also found it a little hard on the wood flooring so I purchased the Parquett Twister SBB 300-3. Most of my floors are tile but I do have some sections of carpets and wood flooring. The original brush is still best for tile and carpets but this Twister is ideal for wood flooring and does an excellent job.Highly recommended.

There is not a separate attachment that I am aware of. The lowest setting works fine on bare floors. The direction of the brushing coupled with the suction works well. I haven't noticed any problem.

This solution is for the FlipIt Bissell machine and it is for all hard surfaces, like ceramic, porcelain or marble tile floors. They make another one for wood floors, do not use this one on wood! It smells clean and fresh as well!

I don't have hard wood floors but I do have ceramic tile floors and on the lowest setting it works fairly well, not as good as sweeping but it does pick up the dust balls and dirt. The corners are an issue so I will use the crevice tool. The only thing I might be concerned about using this on hard wood floors or vinyl tiles would be the brush might be too rough for it but I do not know for certain.

Works just fine on carpet actually you might prefer carpet. on wood and tile it can be a bit of a racket

Thanks for the email and the great question :) For hardwood floors you have 2 options. 1. You can simply turn off the power head motor and use straight suction from the vacuum. or 2. You can attach the included hardwood floor tool that's designed to be used on all hard floors. Let us know if you have any other questions :) Thanks Dustin Great-Vacs (seller)
