    I splurged on some royalty!

    Well, on a Royal Pony to be exact, lol. Even though I had promised myself no new vacs until I pared the collection due to space and financial constraints, it was too good to pass up! I have wanted a Royal tank ever since I was in the 4th grade, our school librarian bought a Dirt Devil broom...

    Hoover polisher / shampooer model 5131 parts?

    I have a hoover model 5131 polisher/shampooer, and I have the shampoo brushes, but can't locate a source for the polisher brushes. I think I have located a source for the felt pads and holders, but I'm not sure. Does anyone have a spare set or know of a source? They need to be the older...

    Nate, regina steemer and hoover concept I was unable to find an email to contact you at, so I figured I would respond here. Sandy has first chance at the compact, however if he does not take it you are next in line. For the hoover and the regina, how about 40 dollars, or if you have something...

    Kirby Classic 1-cr

    That sounds like it has the aftermarket conversion kit which allows it to use Eureka F&G bags. Kirby classic models were sold with a cloth shake out bag. Eureka F&G bags should be available at your locak hardware store, wal-mart, or vac shop

    Eureka Vibra Beat Nozzle, Bottom View In case anyone wondered what the bottom of one looks like. The 3 rows of beads vibrate like crazy as the vacuum sucks air past them, making enough racket to simply scare the dirt out of the carpet if the suction and beating don't work, lol.

    Eureka Vibra Beat Carpet Nozzle This one is fun to use, but pretty noisy. Still fully functional, the beads on the bottom vibrate, beating the carpet as you vacuum. If I understand correctly, these are hard to find, as housewives tended to find them more trouble than they were worth, so they...

    Shag Carpet Nozzle This one is unmarked, but it looks like an Electrolux nozzle I have seen on the site. I don't really have any shag carpet, but maybe one of you know which machine this one is for, and happen to have some shag to use it on...
