Oh no! Do you know what the problems were?

Honestly no idea, they get heavy use and so bags are replaced as necessary and filters replaced often enough.

Maybe something in the earth, lime content perhaps?

The pads don’t hold their quality and the motors just kinda die with little warning they just burn themselves out.

Tried others hoovers based on Henry but they were terribly designed, poor quality and somehow more expensive.

I have heard of quality issues with the modern motors, if your company is willing to repair then let them know that the older style more reliable motors fit the new models
