    Has anyone bought one yet?

    I haven't seen too many actual photos yet of owners with one but even though it's basically an Oreck with Hoover slapped on the front, this vac looks pretty cool. Love the colors on this better than the Oreck commercial. Atleast it's the real deal between Hoover and Oreck and not one of those...

    Do you remember your household vacs?

    Just saw an old family video and I did not know this but in the background was a Hoover TurboPower 2200, never knew we had that!!! That was before the Red Caddy Vac!

    Ahhh. remember when......

    Durango159 Agreed that it wasn't the best, but there is no doubt all those in the 3 photos were built and probably worked somewhat better despite filter issues. Nothing at the time beat any of those Windtunnel platforms airflow wise.

    Do you remember your household vacs?

    My grandparents Mothers side: She remembers that they had mostly Hoover Convertibles as a kid, specifically the one she rememebrs was the white one with blue accent lines and a blue base (U4349 I think). But thats about what they can remember. Theres an old photo with what looks like some type...

    Do you remember your household vacs?

    My aunt had the most outside of my house She replaced hers often for the same reason. LOTS of usage, so our vacuums went out quicker cause we cleaned excessively. She had: Hoover Elite Supreme (199?-2001), don't exactly know which one as I only ever remember seeing it from the back, but my gut...

    What is this vacuum?

    Eurekaprince Thats what I was thinking, had a different look and possibly some sort of import.

    What is this vacuum?

    Another angle of the vac in question, looks a tad different from any of the B&D's I've seen.

    What is this vacuum?

    Eurekaprince Yup, I knew about the Boss. My Grandmother had the cordless black Boss Lite version in the 90s. Don't know what that white and blue one is though. Nothing I've ever seen before.

    What is this vacuum?

    Saw a picture of a cool looking vacuum store that has some older 90s and 2000s (some of them uncommon) vacuums in the display window, and theres this kind of weird looking hand vac stick combo I've never seen before. Can anyone make this out? Looks 80s/90s ish.

    Has anyone else ever owned this hooover ?

    Rainbowvacfane2 The bagless tempo came in a white model? I know a few yeas later they made a white bagged tempo but did not ever see a white bagless. Was it the white Fold Away sold at the time?

    Bagged Lightweight Shark

    I saw a photo online of a Shark vacuum from the 00s Euro Pro era that was a bright blue and basically a rebadged version of the Cirrus Lightweight, was kind of cool looking actually, but like most Euro Pros super rare. Does anyone know what model I'm talking about?

    Forgotten Hoover Products

    broomvac That was a Hoover sold in the US in the early to mid 2000s as one of their cheap end models. They came in bagless and bagged configurations and had several different names such as Preferred, Sprint, Spirit etc. Around that time there was also a bagless in similar price range called the...

    Bagged thrift store sightings

    broomvac Bought the same one at a local thrift store last year!!!! Awesome performer, use it for the rug in the master bedroom. Old Hoover Elites are unbeatable.

    The only video of this Hoover online

    I never thought I'd see someone showing it off, or for that matter hear what it sounds like, but I FINALLY found a video of someone with the Hoover Sprint U5025!

    Forgotten Hoover Products

    EvolutionClean1 Ain't that the truth! My grandmother had a Hoover Fold Away Widepath and with a decent amount of maintenance and care, the vacuum ran strong for 10 years! Good upkeep goes a LONG way!

    Forgotten Hoover Products

    Dont exactly know how uncommon..... The green translucent version of the Widepath seems to be harder to find many pictures of on the internet compared to the Red and Blue (which I think were sold at Kmart and Sears respectively but I could be wrong), which is weird because the green version was...

    Where do people get off with their prcing?

    CORRECTION I shouldve explained it better. The price would be like $300, someone would put in a max of like $310, and it would go back and forth over time. So at the last minute I put in about a maxbid of $330 and not even a second later SOMEHOW, out bid with a maxbid of $350. Not enough time...

    Where do people get off with their prcing?

    I dont know if this compares but...... Someone listed a NIB 12 amp Hoover Caddy Vac (White model) for upwards of three hundred dollars and something about it seemed fishy when I was bidding the price. Like someone had preemptively set prices to outbid other potential buyers. Like I'd put in a...

    Shark Trailblazer

    Huskyvacs I saw a Roadster bagless once. But the early 00s Euro Pros are indeed hard to come by. IDK what changed when they introduced the Navigator, now you see those and everything afterwards around every corner. Definitely a bizarre change.
