Nancy proudly poses
with her new Stealth Kit.

I just love my MD central vacuum! I have had central vacuum systems before, but never one as quiet, powerful or as efficient as the MD system. MD is the best system that I have ever had the pleasure to own. I used to worry about the power nozzle on my old systems destroying my wood floors, however the MD system easily converts to a wood-friendly tool just by flicking the switch on the handle, as opposed to changing the complete wand. It's also great to be able to hear the telephone ring while vacuuming!

The ease of operation, combined with the way it makes my carpeting look has me convinced that the purchase of MD central vacuum system was one of the BEST decisions I ever made.

Product and Service Next to None
"I have owned several other central vacun systems, but this is the best by far.  The technician was great.  He went the extra mile to insure an excellent job, and was a pleasure to work with.  I will recomend him to everyone interested in a central vacum system. He is truly a credit to this company."

Tip Top Condition
"My previous testimonial indicated high initial satisfaction with my do-it-yourself installation of a 220volt SilentMaster S5 with a Stealth power-brush. My system consists of nine 110v outlets throughout the home.

Well, after seven years of constant use and abuse, it is just as powerful and silent as it was when I first installed it. I clean the filters and change the bags often, using only genuine MD bags. Recently, the electrical connector on the Stealth power-head had to be replaced, so I took the opportunity to do a complete disassembly of the Stealth power-head to clean and service as necessary. To my surprise, after seven years of hard use, there was almost no wear on anything, brushes and all. A new cord and switch put it back in tip-top condition.

While I'm at it, I think I'll order that Vac-n-Seal retrofit kit, the Manta MopHead and maybe the CentraMop.

Thanks for a GREAT product and your helpful parts department personnel."

Tossed Out Her Portable Vacuum Today
"I LOVE IT!!! My husband hasn't used it yet - partly because I have been going crazy with it myself. It's amazing how much dirt it picked up that my normal vacuum cleaner wasn't! I threw my old vacuum away today - with great pleasure. Thanks for all your help!"

Product Exceeded Expectations
"I chose MD Manufacturing after careful research. The web site was the most informative one I have found. The power of the SilentMaster S2 (especially the 240 volt version) is incredible. My local dealer was very informative and helpful. With the price, power, Web site and local dealership, I knew I was making the right choice. Now that I have installed and tested the system , it has easily exceeded my overall expectations."

Allergy Friendly Dirt Disposal
"Felt very good about the filtration system. I have respiratory problems and did not want to shake a bag. Also, feel the engineering is sound - not having the dirt go through the motor."

Professional Dealership, Product, and Website
"The M.D. dealer in our area provided us with insightful information and told us that your competitors built a good product, but he showed us the features that made your product superior. His professionalism and your website are the factors that made us buy your product."

Shocked After Owning Kirby Vacuums
"I just purchased a home with a central vacuum system (Silent Master) - I don't know the model, but the house was built in 1994. I was simply shocked when I tried the Silent Master for the first time. I have used a Kirby most of my life, and never thought anything else would do as well. What a pleasant surprise to discover I was wrong! Especially since my Kirby just passed away and I am not in the mood to replace it at the going rate."

Professional Dealership, Product, and Website
"Thanks so much. My wife was so impressed with your dealer and his work. A 10+ rating she said! Trust me when I say that this feat is next to impossible to meet when it comes to her standards. And if she is happy, I'm happy. She is thrilled, but now I need to get her to put the central vac down! She has been vacuuming since I got home and it is presently 9:30 pm. I guess that can be good thing as long as all the dogs are present and accounted for after she tires. Again, thanks so much."
Respectfully, Dave

First Service at 25 Years after Vacuuming Lots of Dog Hair
"I have the MD ModernDay E2 and after 25 years the motor brushes are getting a little worn. I must add that I am very pleased with my vacuum system, over the last 25 years I've replaced the power head three times, the hose twice and vacuumed massive amounts of dog hair from three Labs. It's amazing the main unit lasted as long as it has. I took the bottom off and found very little dust or dirt around the motors, I was expecting a 25 year accumulation. Very well made, most impressive product."
Bill M.

New Owner is Convinced
"Between the ease and cleanliness of the system and customer service and helpfulness such as yours, no wonder the original owners chose this system! You guys rock!"
Olga G.

No Reservations to Purchasing
"Thank you for the very fast response to my email. As I expected, you folks are "on the ball" and I appreciate that. As well, you are familiar with your competition and provided exactly the type of information I was not able to obtain on my own.

Your information, along with the money back guarantee have certainly removed any reservations I had on trying your product. As well, if the product performs as well as it appears it will, I'll be happy to recommend your company any time the opportunity arises."
Best Regards, Jim D

Very Pleased / Do-it-yourself Installation
"I recently purchased a SilentMaster S5 built in vac with the Stealth power brush. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you how very pleased my wife and I are with the system. It's wonderful!

I did the installation myself and it was simple and straight forward.

My purchase was influenced by your comprehensive web site and excellent service.

Thanks again for providing such a great product with such good support."
Sincerely, Mike M.

Web Site is Insight to MD
"I wanted to take a moment to thank you for and complement you on your excellent website. As a computer industry professional, I am very grateful when a company realizes, understands, and utilizes the incredible marketing power of the web. It amazes me when I go to some companies web sites to get product information, to only find a peltry dab it. These same companies spend millions of dollars a year in generalized mainstream advertisement, but do not understand the benefit of spending a tiny fraction of it on a marketer's dream - consumers coming to you to ask about a specific product.

Your website is an exceptional model of what a website should be. It is informative, both in general knowledge, and specific product information while containing a wide range of tools and accessories.

As a result of your website, I have decided on MD as manufacturer for the central vacuum system in my new home.

My compliments to your marketing department and your webmaster(s)."

Pleasure to Empty Bag
"This house came with a Vacuflo 960. I had Silent Master in my former home and emptying it was a pleasure compared to the Vacu-flo. I have the 1 3/8'' hose that came with the Turbocat which doesn't work good on my very thick white carpet that has a 96 oz. face weight or whatever it is called."

Thanks, Steve K. [Editor's note: Try our Stealth electric driven head. All you need is an electrical outlet within 8-feet of each vacuum inlet. Stealth.]

Web / Product / Customer Service
"After extensive web-searches RE: "Central Vacuums", I must declare that your web site 'stands alone' in thorough/comprehensive information! My first e-mail approach to you was in the first week of Jan '02. Since that time my wife Mary & I traveled 90 miles one way (closest dealer) to see AND hear a SilentMaster S5 (P/N 108SM) in operation. I had numerous contacts with your sales rep.

With the "stand-alone" specs of your unit, seeing one in a dealer's operation and the professional assistance of Tom at MD, we have purchased a SilentMaster S5 & Stealth Kit. Please note; I stirred the interest of a good friend of mine who also purchased an S5 & Stealth Kit; which accounts for my invoice to show two (2) units shipped & paid for.

Your sales rep is an asset to your business in that he is not a "pressure" salesman nor did he at any time, indicate that he 'knew everything' I asked. Some the technical questions were answered directly by engineers.

Now, as for the S5 itself; this piece of equipment; "SUCKS"! But hey, that's what it's supposed to do, right? The first cleaning of just three rooms with our new system astounded us in the unbelievable amount of dirt we found in the unit's dirt bag! The Stealth power unit is a marvel also. We were surprised to see how "light-weight" it is. We are hopeful this factor doesn't show up in short 'useful life'. We are convinced, emphatically; "We own the best central vac system, there is"!

Ya'll have done a great job in all aspects that we've dealt with so far. I don't often get to, "throw a rose or two" & am enjoying this opportunity!"
Sincerely, Jim & Mary M.

Product / Guidance / Helpful
"We recently moved into our new house, which is complete with our new MD Manufacturing central vacuum system. I just wanted to let you know that we are very pleased with the performance of the central vacuum system. My wife especially fell in love with the Stealth attachment and the great job that it does on our carpets (she uses it so much its hard to tell which will wear out first, the carpet or the Stealth!).

With the installation guidance provided with the system and on your website, I found the installation quite straightforward. I especially liked the fit of the vacuum tubing in the fittings (I was about one joint short of having enough tubing to finish the job, and purchased that joint locally--the quality and fit of the locally purchased tubing was not as good as the tubing from MD Manufacturing).

I also appreciated the assistance provided by the folks at MD Manufacturing during the ordering process. Helpful suggestions on various options were offered by a very knowledgeable staff (who were also very good sales people--I ended up buying more than I originally intended, but based on the input from the MD Manufacturing folks, I decided it was justified!).

We are looking forward to many years of using our central vacuum."
Thanks again! Mark C.

Product / Web Site / Dealership
"Thank you for your very fast response to my inquiry regarding exhaust venting. I was particularly impressed to have received a response directly the General Manager of the company.

I also wanted to let you know that you have a great product in the SilentMaster S2 along with the Stealth kit. I looked at several of the major brands of systems and concluded that your system is far superior to the others. Your web site was a big help in both deciding on the S2 system and installing it

You also have an excellent dealer in Colorado (All Vacuum Co. in Arvada). I designed and installed my own system. Jim and his staff at All Vacuum Co. were very helpful and a pleasure to work with. They reviewed my plans, made recommendations, put together a comprehensive installation kit for me, and answered all of my (many) questions."
Thanks again. Paul S.

Product and Correspondence Better than Competition's
"I'm dropping you a quick note to give you some feedback on your product. Your company and you in particular provided me with excellent information while I was researching different power brushes and accessories. You were familiar with competing products and the power unit that was installed in our home by the previous owners, and you responded very quickly to my emails.

Based on the information you sent along, and some less than satisfying correspondence with your competition, I ordered a stealth power brush kit to replace the Nutone power brush and hose we received from the previous owners. The kit came quickly and the quality of the material in comparison to what we had immediately impressed me.

We've been using the Stealth power brush kit for more than two months to clean up after our very active and dirt tracking children. It does a superior job cleaning the carpets and floors over our Nutone kit we had. The hose kit with integral power wires is a dream to use. It rarely kinks and is much easier to use than the Nutone hose. The Stealth power brush is orders of magnitude more quiet than our old power brush. In fact, the kids no longer run away when we vacuum, and we can even carry on a normal conversation or watch the news on TV while it is running.

You have a great product that I would not hesitate to recommend. In fact I already have recommended your products to family members!"

Keep up the good work!
Best Regards, Jim D.

Longevity / Attention to Detail / American
"It's a small world when I look for help on a 25 year old unit and end up talking to the guy who built it. <grin> I am very impressed with your workmanship, it's attention to details such as tape wrap on the wire nuts that make these vacuums so trouble free and reliable. It's a pleasure to find products "made in America", the stuff from in China, Mexico, etc. just don't compare at all."
Thanks again. Cheers, Bill

Making Sure M.D. Central Vacuum is Installed
"Thank you for the most comprehensive online source for learning about (all) central vacuum systems, as well as your fine product.

I am building a new home and feel sure your vacuum system will be my choice after spending quite some time at your web page. I have downloaded your installation manual for forwarding to my HVAC engineer for incorporation into my house plans.

I found your web page thru typing in key words "central vacuum systems" on the Dogpile search engine, and you were my second selection of many (near the top).

I had not heard of MD vacuums prior to visiting your web page. In fact, though considering all the finer "bells and whistles" in the construction of my new home, I had not even thought of a central vac until an acquaintance asked me if I planned to have one. Apparently, architects, engineers, and designers do not yet ask about central vacs in the same breath as they ask whether you plan to use gas or electric appliances, and what type of flooring and kitchen cabinets you prefer.

Also, I recently visited some of the more upscale model homes in major developments in our area and I don't recall any mention of built in vacuums being offered as a marketing feature. More like "corian" counter tops, high ceilings, and tile flooring.

As one who has fought all the battles in the "love-hate" relationship with canister vacs, I will be looking forward to this new retirement home all the more for its central vac feature."
Thanks, Diane W.
