    Looking for Fantom Cyclone XT Tools & bottom door

    I MIGHT be able to help you. I have a few boxes of NOS Fantom parts and I'm really not sure what's in them at the moment. But if there's the parts you need for a Cyclone XT, I'd be happy to sell them to you for a reasonable offer. Send me an email, if you wish: [email protected]

    Sebo X4 Premium Pet

    Ignore Mr. Durango.....he has a long history of being ill informed on what a truly good vacuum cleaner is, preferring to think of machines as a collector and not as a consumer. I have had my SEBO Automatic X1 for just over a year and I can safely say that I will never again be without a SEBO...

    Vacuums on ebay......

    Put in a bid on Charlie's GORGEOUS Legend II. Have always wanted that model, so fingers crossed for an uneventful bidding war.

    Thinning my collection and trouble picking between the two

    I would avoid the Bissell and steer towards the Advance or finding a used older Sanitaire that has the motor you like.

    Thinning my collection and trouble picking between the two

    All current Sanitaire uprights will have the new style motor. Not so sure about the Bissell, as it's not made by Sanitaire, but likely by the Chinese company known as 'Perfect'. HOWEVER, if you want the REAL Sanitaire sounding motor, I am almost positive that the machines Sanitaire private...

    Eureka Roto-Matic Power Team 'Vactronic' Model

    Picked up the Eureka from the post office today. It really is like new. Runs perfectly and hardly a mark on it. Only thing missing is the upholstery tool. You can see my Sanitaire Blue Line sulking in the background of the third picture. It's worried that it's been replaced. Have no fear, I'm...

    Eureka Roto-Matic Power Team 'Vactronic' Model

    Hey all, Just picked this one up on eBay for an absolute song. I know very little about Eureka PowerTeam canisters besides the fact that they're extremely powerful, durable, and have one of the best power nozzles ever conceived. When would this model have been sold? Also, does anybody have a...

    A New in Box Treasure

    Scott, I definitely prefer the Sanitaire team to the Royal team. The Mighty Mite is so much lighter weight and easier to scoot around with than the big, cumbersome Royal Lexon. Also, the upright is considerably quieter and is easier for me to use. John, I'm glad you got the message. I am...

    A New in Box Treasure

    Both machines received a major workout today. Mother's bedroom is being repainted, therefore all furniture was removed and the room was cleaned from ceiling to floor. Mighty Mite is approaching its 4th bag change since I got it back in May.

    A New in Box Treasure

    Hi all, It's been a while since I've posted and I've got lots of pictures to catch up with. I wanted to share something that I bought myself for my birthday a few weeks ago. New in the box, new old stock from about 2005 or so, a Sanitaire Blue Line S677 manufactured by The Eureka Company...

    A Novel 'Concept' in Cleaning

    In addition to the fun already posted above, John asked me to revisit some "old friends". First, we have the 1976 'Bicentennial' Convertible that I gifted to him several months ago. It was in utterly DEPLORABLE condition when it came into my possession. You would swear it had been yanked out...

    A Novel 'Concept' in Cleaning

    John's thoughtfulness never ceases to amaze me. He sent me home with a Mother's Day gift for my mother. He knows how difficult of a time she has using larger, heavier vacuum cleaners so he gifted to her a brand new Windtunnel Air. She's going to love how easy it is to whiz around the rugs and...

    A Novel 'Concept' in Cleaning

    Being the ever enthusiastic Concept hunter that I am, I always ask my good friend John Gregory to keep an eye out for them in his day-to-day business. Due to the Mother's Day rush, John had acquired two of my dream machines and was quick to call me to come get them. 1979 Hoover Concept One...
