    Miele Complete C3 Electro Plus EcoLine

    Here's my C3 Marin in Marine Blue. I miss the metallic paint finish of the first generation S8 series but we can't have everything!

    Decision time on Miele - Need some help

    With the UniQ/Brilliant the machine will not run without the hose (as mentioned above). When these machines first came out in their S8 iterations I bought a Marin and my mother a UniQ. I quickly learned I preferred the slightly longer hose on the Marin and didn't miss the handle controls as...

    Wanted: Quadraflex Powernozzle

    Yes! Overall, what condition is it in? The blue S3279 I have cleaned up really nice so I'm trying to find one in decent cosmetic and if possible mechanical shape... Though I can't be too picky as these are in the hands of collectors or now in landfills!

    Wanted: Quadraflex Powernozzle

    Hi guys! I recently bought a Dimension 1000 S3279 and am in search of a blue Quadraflex powernozzle. I have plenty of hoses for these machines, just looking for a matching powernozzle. I know these have become rare as hell so my hopes of finding one are not too high. I have a black power...

    Hi guys, after a two-year hiatus, I'm back again

    Thanks fantomfan and icee! Yeah, it did suck big time when I came home and my collection was gone, but I guess in a way it was a good thing.

    Kirby score for today

    Great find! I got mine from my local vac shop I frequent. The owner gave me a deal in trade for a few parts vacs I gave him.

    First Vacuum Memories?

    Taking a trip to Lechmere and picking up a Hoover Dimension 1000 with my parents and helping my dad put it together when I was like 4 years old. Visiting my grandparent's house and playing with their Electrolux. Going to our camp/house in the Adirondacks and having a fit when I learned my mom...

    Hi guys, after a two-year hiatus, I'm back again

    Hi vacuum family and friends. After my two-year absence from this site, I'm back in business. It was the fact that my vacuum interest started to wain after the majority of my collection was decimated when my mom donated about 20 machines to charity after being in storage in her finished...

    Hoover Dimension 1000 Update

    Here's another one! I received my other Dimension from Kenny Loveland today. I saw it on our favorite auction site and put a bid in, I figured it may be him from the forum after I recognized his name and his username here. It's a model S3281 to complement my S3493. The hose is in mint...

    Welcoming some new vacuums to my Kirby family

    Nice G3! I've always like the minimalist look of that model. Gotta pull them both apart and polish the heck outta them with my bench polisher. I might do the G6 as well seeing how it needs some love anyway, heck I might as well do all of them :-P The motor in the G4 is arcing so I'm gonna...
