Don't bother with that. I reached out to the guy 6 months ago asking if he'd be able to ship, said he'd get back to me. Not a word from him since. Messaged a couple times checking for an update, left me on read. No wonder it's been up for a year.

Congrats!! XTs aren't easy to find, let alone is such great condition as that one! I found one locally back in the winter but it was kinda rough (typical broke upright lock, missing attachments, taped chord, etc) therefore I didn't use it much and eventually sold it last month. I'm on the...

The shop selling it didn't know of any. It would need to be packed into a box on top of shipped. I know companies like UPS can do pick up and ship but I think it has to be packaged and ready to go for them to do that.

I found a machine I've been wanting for a long time at a really good deal but the shop selling it won't ship it. If theres anyone near Austin, TX that would be able to pick it up, pack it, and ship it to me in Michigan. I would absolutely cover all associated shipping costs and would definitely...

Where are you located VacsOfProsper?

Gregg33 I appreciate you looking. Still nothing at this point. Oddly I've been able to find the Lightning Hard Floor Tool and Mini Powerhead, the two incredibly rare optional attachments, but not the standard attachment set that came with the machine. As far as the Cyclone XT I'm mainly just...

Hello everyone, I'm in search of an attachment set for a Fantom Lightning (dusting brush, crevice tool, upholstery tool). Also looking for the dusting brush and hard floor nozzle for a Cyclone XT. In addition to that an upright lock pedal assembly also for an XT.

Dysonman, When I first got it I did notice that the seal was getting caught on one of the tabs at the base of the bin, but otherwise its intact. I think the heat of the dishwasher helped it go back to its normal shape and doesn't get caught as easily now. I'll just make sure to be careful every...

Cool, thanks! Just wanted to make sure that regular dishwashing detergent wouldn't damage the parts somehow. Always good to be sure especially since I've not done this before. I'll definitely try that filter washing trick.

Hello everyone! So I've recently decided to dive into the world of (older) Dyson and just picked up this DC17 on FB marketplace for $30 USD. I believe this is a Total Clean model but I'm not entirely sure since the label is gone. I do know it is a later model (seller said around 2012 ish)...

My mom had an Oreck upright and canister combo when I was growing up, I don't remember the exact model but even then I found both to be pretty mediocre. Even the second hand Kirby Sentria II she replaced it with was better. I got this Bissell bagless upright as a moving out/Christmas gift a...

The earlier Dysons such as the DC01, DC02, and DC04 I really like. Dyson back then seemed to make decent units despite the drawbacks the inherent to dual cyclone bagless design. While I know Fantoms have a sizeable following, the practical part of me wants to keep away from them due to all...

I don't plan on using this more than occasionally, more than anything I just wanted to have it for nostalgia of being a kid growing up in the late 90s obsessed with anything mechanical or electronic including vacuums. And also for it being a piece of history with Fantom being the first bagless...

Just sent you an email, Cassie

Hello everyone, I've browsed this site for years but never had anything to post until now. Over the weekend just by chance browsing FB marketplace I found someone selling a Fantom Thunder about an hour away from me for $40! Been looking for one off and on for years and this was such a deal I...
