Dear VCCC'ers, It is my pleasure to announce the 2024 annual VCCC convention taking place in St. Louis Missouri from June 20th through June 22nd. As always, we've got a fun filled weekend planned, with activities, competitions, and connecting with friends new and old. Please visit the...

Looking forward to it! I'm excited for it already! Between seeing good friends, the wonderful setting of Santa Fe, and the activities in the works it'll be an excellent convention for sure. And I'm always glad when a convention lands within driving distance, big help for vac transportation...

Corded Version Looks like the corded version will be distributed through Karcher, it's already on their website: https://www.kaercher.com/us/professional/commercial-vacuums/upright-vacuums/ranger-10129000.html

It was great! Hard to believe a week has already passed, it was fantastic seeing everyone! Plus seeing the giant hoover again was amazing (last time was 2008 for Hoover's 100th). Visiting John and and Joe's homes was a joy. Good food, good friends, and many vacuum cleaners. I'm really...

I'm going Hotel and plane tickets have been booked, see everyone there! -Scott

"Pods" The use of the term "pods" instead of bags reminded me of the Oreck Pod cordless from a few years back too. Seems they are trying to skirt around calling disposable dirt collection things "bags" nowadays. It's also very similar to the "Halo" branded cordless vacuum in the UK (no...

No worries! You managed to get more concrete info than I did! It's a cool looking machine, I'm excited for it. Seems like it's generating a lot of buzz already.

That's really cool you were able to get more info on it. I heard from a friend that contacted Numatic UK that the price point should be around 300 pounds uk. Will be more here I'm sure (P.s. if you look back I started a thread about this cleaner earlier today, with the picture from facebook...

I spotted this on a vacuum store's Instagram story the other day. Looks like it was taken at the Numatic/Nacecare VDTA booth. A friend of mine called numatic for more information, and it sounds like specifications should be out in May and the machine should be released in the summer. They made...

I've been looking at one of these for a while, certainly tempting price wise compared to a numatic. Haven't taken the plunge though as I can't see myself using it all that much in lieu of my henrys/george. But I'm really curious to hear what it's like! Hopefully it's quiet like the numatics...

Oreck The most interesting part about this is Oreck themselves appear to be selling the exact same machine, for more than twice the price! https://www.oreck.com/elevate-cordless-vacuum/BK95519.html?cgid=cordless#start=1

Thanks everyone I really appreciate the information y'all have shared! This machine is for sure outside my comfort zone but I look forward to working on it in future. Charlie, it's interesting that it used compact style floor tools, they probably gave really good performance for the time. I'm...

I have one I actually bought the deluxe model a few months ago from a local vac shop. Generally I like it, it does everything I need and is relatively compact given the features. I think I prefer it over the vibrance series (in most ways). So far no quality issues to speak of, it seems well...

An interesting problem I've seen my fair share of older dysons like that (not to mention old kenmores, panasonics, sharps, old computers and electronics etc) with this problem. Usually there are two main causes (for ABS in particular), UV rays don't generally interact well with polymers. UV...

I was browsing facebook marketplace the other day, scrolling through endless dirt devils which seem to populate the store around here. I had no intention of buying anything given my limited storage space (one bedroom apartment). I thought perhaps if I found something vintage and small I might...
