    My Vacuum Collection as of June 9th, 2015

    I'm also looking into selling my hand vacuums, the ones that do not work well. I am going to be getting 2 brand new Royal Metal Vacuums. One will be the 501 NOS NIB never even turned on, just taken out for pictures. Another one will be a NOS Royal 157 that may have only been turned on to make...

    My Vacuum Collection as of June 9th, 2015

    The Grey Vacuum is a Eureka Commercial Vacuum from 1974. It sounds a little like a Sanitaire. I'm debating on if I should sell the Grey Hoover, since it has some problems. I am thinking of replacing it with a Royal Upright.

    My Montgomery Ward Hand Vacuum does not turn on

    The cord does not have any issues. It's the switch that has issues.

    My Vacuum Collection as of June 9th, 2015

    These are all of my Vacuum Cleaners as of June 9th, 2015. I use all of my uprights. All of my Metal Hand Vacuums are all showcase models, since each of them have an issue and can not be used for daily cleaning. My Sears Dustbuster is also a showcase model too, as it barely picks up anything and...

    My Montgomery Ward Hand Vacuum does not turn on

    I don't think it's fixable, due to those parts not being available anymore. So I am just going to keep it as a showcase model. If I ever come across another pink and white Wards on ebay, I may just donate the one I have now and buy that one. But it will take time, as those are very rare. It did...

    Anyone have a Gasket?

    Does anyone have an extra gasket? It's that circle ring that goes inside the bag in a metal hand vacuum to hold the bag in position. My blue Montgomery Ward hand vacuum's bag is missing the gasket which is why it is so wobbly.

    My Montgomery Ward Hand Vacuum does not turn on

    I have a Montgomery Ward Hand Vacuum. Not sure the model number, but it is pinkish and white with a brown bag. I purchased this machine off ebay last Fall and it does not work at all. I have been super busy, so I was not able to take it to the vacuum shop until now. I did get my full refund...

    Is this Dirt Devil Hand Vacuum from the 90s?

    So are these like really powerful? I have a Sears Dustbuster I got 2 weeks ago, and it does not pick up anything. All the dirt is stuck in front of the flap and you have to push the dirt in that one.

    Is this Dirt Devil Hand Vacuum from the 90s?

    Is this hand vacuum from the 90s? The box screams out 1990s. This model seems more rare than a model 103 or a model 500.

    Dustbuster may not work

    Well I charged it for about 3 hours and it works like brand new! It has the new smell to it too when you turn it on. It smells like 1980s days lol. It's so awesome though. I have also been seeing Black and Decker models that look exactly like mine. There is a Brand New Never Opened Dustbuster...

    Dustbuster may not work

    How long will it take for my new dustbuster to charge? It does not turn on and when I put it in the charger, it did not turn on while charging. Now I am worried I got scammed. Then again, you guys did warn me that the battery would be old and not working. I got it to pick up the hairs in the...

    How old is this New Old Stock Dustbuster I will be buying?

    Dustbusters were very popular in the 1980s. You can use them to clean hard floors. They work better in cleaning hard floors than a brush hand vacuum, because if you put a brush hand vacuum on a hard floor, the bristles will wear out and the brush won't work anymore. The bristles will be so worn out.

    How old is this New Old Stock Dustbuster I will be buying?

    I am only buying a dustbuster to clean hard floors and shavings in the restroom. I am not much of a dustbuster fan. However, the one I am getting is really rare. I've seen new old stock dustbusters on ebay in the past and they were all Black and Decker, which is a common brand. A Sears branded...

    Video of my 1969 Eureka Montgomery Wards Upright Vacuum Cleaner Model SP-824A

    I do plan to get an updated video once I do some improvements to this machine. I may or may not buy a Vibra Groomer Brush. This brush does an equal job, so I might not. I also need to buy a new bulb for the light, as well as find a tailor who can fix the zipper on the bag. This bag is too...

    My Completed Upright Vacuum Cleaner Collection

    There is that little space, but sometimes, I put other things there. Maybe when I move out, I could go back to collecting uprights.

    Vintage Eureka Montgomery Ward Upright Vacuum Cleaner Model SP-824A

    On my Hoover Convertible, I remember the zipper broke and it was similar to this. At the time, I was a Senior in High School and did not know you could go to a tailor to fix it, so I just threw it away. If I can get a hold of an original bag, I might put it back on. Thing is, those original bags...
