    I think this one nearly made the FedEx man keel over.

    What nice vacuums and parts! Your dear friend Brandon is such a doll for sending you such nice things!

    Commercial Uprights

    My favorite is the Sanitaire SC888, before they got rid of the headlight and changed the motor. And even then my favorite is still the Sanitaire 800 series. Can't go wrong with one of those.

    A very large box arrived on my front porch today.

    That is my favorite model of Rainbow! My great aunt & uncle have a D4 just like yours and I absolutely love using it when I'm over there. I'm sure you're house is just fabulously sparkly with that Rainbow!

    Hoover Commercial Windtunnel Habitat Find

    The prices on the Hoover website are usually list price which is always sky high compared to reality.

    My New Sanitaire Contractor Upright

    LOL I've been watching that awhile wondering what they would really send. I dont think a bathroom sink drain Is worth that price though.

    I didn't realize people still had a Digital Slim stuck up their ass about seeing a Dyson in a Hoover store. What Decade is this again?

    An old friend from my mother's past (The return of my first Hoover)

    Gorgeous machine Matt! I want it! So nice that you got it back after all these years. You sure would think that machine came from the vault...

    A slew of new toys

    I love all those machines! I've always wanted a Royal, and I'm gonna get a Professional Series with the headlight! I've had that same T-Series bagged for 3 years now and love it. And btw I drooled when I saw the Bicentennial Convertible!

    Dyson long term durability vs. other brands

    My DC07 was used regularly for 7 years by it's previous owner, who wasn't very nice on it. It's survived but with a cracked canister handle, and a nozzle hose that's split and needs replacing. Other then that a good cleaning fixed it, and it could go a long while yet IMO. Still runs perfectly...

    My new toy arrived today!

    very pretty. I wouldn't mind one! But I'm very happy with my DC17 so I'm in no rush. Does it have the same super stiff brushroll as the DC17?
