-I have never had the room to collect. I just have my 2 regular use cleaners: New Hoover Tempo Upright, Electrolux UltraSilencer Green EL6984A. I also have a Metro 500 "Vac n Go" 12volt car vac that runs off the car lighter.
What are your dream machines yet to be found?
-Any Eureka produced between 1960 and 1990. I would love to own the three machines I grew up with: GE Air-Flo cylinder, Eureka 250, Eureka 2083. Would love an Empress (one or two),or a Crown Princess, and Ultra and and Express.
What are your earliest and favorite vacuum memories?
-Too many to count. I guess the day Dad brought home the highly rated Gold Eureka 2083. Also, used to love to play with just the tools of the GE Air-Flo and the Eureka 250.
What is the history of vacuum you have owned?
-a. Eureka 1425; b. Eureka Red World Vac (1993); c. Kenmore Elegance Canister (Canadian version of Progressive) - 2001; d. Hoover Constellation S3345; e. Hoover Tempo U5140-900 with headlight
Have you ever worked on, repaired and/or restored any vacuum cleaners?
-Only basic maintenance on all the machines in our household. Some friends depend on me too!
