I inherited a Fantom Fury from my Mother, designer collection with pink trim. I love it! Works well. My old Hoover upright also inherited, has type A bags, works nicely, quiet, but bags cost to replace so only use Fantom fury or my canister Regina bought in 1974. Can't find any bags anywhere!! Not even online.
I don't want to buy a new canister. Just want BAGS!!!! Using last one from VCB#80590. Hard to believe no one has bags. This vacuum cleans everything!
What are your dream machines yet to be found?
I'm happy with my vacumm cleaners, but if I can't find any Regina canister bags, and I haven't yet, been looking and calling everywhere. So disappointing!I currently am advertising on Craigslist SF Bayarea but no replies yet!
What are your earliest and favorite vacuum memories?
Too far back to remember!
What is the history of vacuum you have owned?
I did acquire a nice Panasonic upright about 18 yrs. ago, ran really quiet, but I sold it, as I already owned 2 Hoovers.
Have you ever worked on, repaired and/or restored any vacuum cleaners?
Yes, although I'm a 73 yr. old woman, I have often replaced belts and cleaned the vacuums I acquire that people believe are junk. They are not, they just need a good cleaning and new belt!
I have mechanical skills from my previous job. I tackle anything rather than pay to repair.
