DESC: The Nilfisk GD 1010 canister vacuum is designed to provide the powerful cleaning suction expected of a canister vacuum. Designed for use in residential and light commercial facilities, the Nilfisk GD 1010 vacuum leaves floors and carpets virtually dust-free with its included HEPA exhaust filter (filters 99.97% of particles greater than 0.3 microns in size). The 1.5 hp motor provides at least 20% more power than the closest competitor for thorough pick-up. Air flow can be adjusted for powerful suction on floor and less power on delicate surfaces. The versatile floor tool converts for both hard floor and carpet. The Nilfisk GD 1010 vacuum is designed to be compact and lightweight. The Nilfisk GD 1010s low profile and three-wheel base allow for easy maneuvering. Although small, these units are made of tough, impact-resistant plastic and powered by motors designed to last twice as long as other motors.
