Hind sight is far better than foresight!  If I would have known what I know now, I would have never spent a small fortune on such a piece of junk!  This vaccum mixes  dirt with water.  Herin lies the problem.  The dirt stinks and has some mold spores in in.  If you do not get EVERY speck of water out of the canister when you are done cleaning, you will have one horrible mess when you return to use it again.  When I got this system, I was a working Mom with a very demanding job.  My teenager tried to help but between me, her dad and myself, the resivour did not get dry.  The next time I used the vaccum, it smelled so bad!  I will never fall for a similar product again.  If you take my advice, you will take your $1,000 and go on a vacation.  When you return, buy a cheaper vaccum.  You will find yourself much happier!

Never had any problems with mine. I love that I see what I am vacuuming up when I empty the tank. I always set mine in the dish drainer after rinsing so it can dry out!

try this.... Dump, rinse, dry. 4 years no smell. Pretty simple

well i have had many kids and pets and i have had the same one since 1985!! I still use it all the time and love it. We got a cat and that is the only thing that gets rid of the hair. Of course you have to be willing to spend about three or four minutes to rise out the container and either dry it or let it sit out to dry versus all the other dust etc had clogged heppa filters etc. I have another vac for quick clean ups and it is a worse pain!!

It's simple to dump the water, rinse the basin, and dry it with an old rag
