I added one item to the machine. On the bottom I put a filter queen caddy with wheel. I have made it my central vac on wheels. It is the best vacuum I have ever brought. It is so easy to use. I also added a remote shut off switch, so I can turn the vac on and off from the hose. Don't have to walk all the way back to the unit to shut it off. I bought another one for a friend, installed it in his A/C closet of his condo and he now has his own "Condo Central Vac" Turn it on, and vacuum away. It is not just for the garage. It is for the whole house. I have carpet also, so I bought a turbo head and it is the greatest. I bought an extra for myself, just in case it ever dies and I can't get another one. Thank you Bissell. Maybe you can use my ideas and re market it to condo owners and home owners who want central but just can't get it or afford it. Bravo
