    Shark canister vacuum score!

    Wow! That model is only a few years old, I got the gold colored black one when it was first launched as a parts model because the powernozzle was missing, and only paid $50 for it which at the time was a deal since they were selling for $400+. Ibaisaic reviewed this model on his channel too I...

    Electrolux mighty mite filters

    Maybe if you use those really cheap ones from the dollar store that are really thin already

    Aerus-Electrolux canister brushroll/powerhead issue **Please help!**

    I would make the presumption that Elux made the plastic too soft and the axle shafts are carving into the wheels by friction and shaving away a tiny bit every time until the wheel diameter increases so much that it can't hold the axle tight anymore, and maybe he is pushing down too hard on the...

    Found a $5 Filter Queen

    I have gotten about a half dozen Filter Queens. I get them any time I see one for less than $50. I like looking for ones that come with half a house full of non-matching random brands of vacuum cleaner parts that someone thought went to it, it seems like these vacuums always become a big dumping...

    Royal 880

    On Dirt Devils it is the plant code. Maybe pre-Dirt Devil Royal in the 80s and 90s changed it to plant code too.

    Early Dyson prototype.

    I have never seen that vacuum before, I only knew of the Cyclon - I don't think anyone's ever showcased or even he himself ever talked about that blue one.

    Sir James Dyson invented the Oreck Dual Stack :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

    Foreign Hoover "Futura" canister 220V with standard american plug NIB on Ebay?

    The machine being from 1994, and unused, was likely bought during Operation Vigilant Warrior . Which lasted from Oct- Dec 1994 in Riyadh. Since the operation was so short, anyone that got deployed would have likely never had time to even use it. Was likely bought on the allowed personal budget...

    Eureka Toolbox Vac

    Well then you're just inventing a problem for something that does not exist. You have a fully functional complete vacuum and you want to tear it apart and bodge it with a bunch of jerry rigged stuff (and likely make it 50 times worse in the process)? I don't understand this thinking. It's...

    Electrolux mighty mite filters

    I cannot find any official parts source for a premotor filter for this vacuum. You will have to use "cut to fit" filter cloth material. It's that scratchy hairy stuff that looks like a pot scrubber. https://www.ebay.com/itm/160995070929 Many items to choose from, this is just an example...

    Eureka Toolbox Vac

    This vacuum does not use paper bags. It uses a reuseable cloth dump out bag. Part #72553. Yours is missing this part as well as the inner motor filter. You'd have to find another one that still has the bag. You may or may not be able to bodge it with Electrolux HEPA bags. Just smash them in...

    When All You Own Are Vintage-Looking Vacuums

    So this but with vacuum cleaners :ROFLMAO: Only thing that immediately comes to mind is Kirby and Sanitaire. There's also Aerus and Ranbow. The Bissel consumer-commercial line of Big Green vacuums uses a lot of archaic molds too that are rebadged designs.

    New Riccar R40.8 failed after two uses

    I got COVID immediately after I unboxed a Bissel Zing I bought off eBay 5 or 6 years ago...so that vacuum has bad memories for me! :poop: And I still have it! :eek:

    Anyone in Waycross GA, there is currently a Bissell Plus on Facebook Marketplace for 20 DOLLARS YES 20 DOLLARS!

    I always hate it when a seller has the rarest vacuum known to man and they won't ship it. It's literally so easy. Shopgoodwill does this on a regular basis. They had one of those Infinity branded Fantoms, no shipping, and 0 bids on it as a result.
