    The Great HEPA Debate

    Dust is not "good for you" otherwise we wouldn't have vacuum cleaners... I would go as far as to say a little dust isn't harmful, but certainly not "good for you." With that said, I do not, and will never use HEPA bags, since I mainly clean with pre-war Hoovers. My home is clean and there is...

    VERY Rare Hoover Book

    I can already see this is going to turn into a pissing match. I may not win the booklet but I do have my auto bidder set to "Expert Mode" ;-)

    VERY Rare Hoover Book

    High resolution scan to PDF is exactly what I'd do. I have a bunch of manuals I have already done this to, including many early Hoover manuals. I'm in the process of editing and compiling them and will make them available to the public in the near future.

    VERY Rare Hoover Book

    I wouldn't say my pockets are limitless, but I'm fairly certain there's enough in them to win a $500 booklet. I'd like to make copies of this to be shared with you all, as it should be. Not hidden away in a dusty pile to be re-discovered when I die.

    Electrolux 1205 with PN1, Original Hose, Attachments, and Paperwork

    Thanks for the correction, I'm clearly not an Electrolux expert! I have 2 of the white & aqua power nozzles with the plastic sheath, I assumed this later one was a PN2. I learned something today!

    Electrolux Model 30 Help!

    You're right, I read the price wrong. I suppose for $3, why not.

    Electrolux Model 30 Help!

    I'm all about saving stuff, but I think you'd be better off financially and time-wise by finding a complete XXX. There is just too much missing for it to be worth $30. I paid $10 for mine:

    Hoover Special 541

    Steve, Very interesting about the switch. I'm interested to find out what the deal with that is! My 105 and 543 both have the switches on the left, only my 102 has the switch on the right. Curious indeed! Alex, Sundial wire is where you want to go. They make most of the wire that other...

    Thinning out my collection - several machines and parts for sale

    Edward, email sent. Carlton, yes I do, not sure the shipping cost would need to box and measure/weigh it. My guess is under $20 via FedEx.

    The 2 dark brown hangers are not marked with the Kirby logo, just the tan one.

    Make me an offer, I ship via FedEx at cost. I'd guess around $15 to ship

    Thinning out my collection - several machines and parts for sale

    The box isn't from a 515 but the tools and hose would absolutely work. I'm pretty sure they switched to red from gray by then right?
