  1. This product, the older model has been for quite some time in the Indian Market, but without much success maybe because of the distances and the lack of technical services available at various cities?
    Vorwerk better do something about it if you want to have success with TM5 and get technical service for TM 31 or you may encounter a lot of negative publicity, after all one invests a lot of money on the machine.
