    A Kirby Heritage 1HD.......

    followed me home. Well, actually I rescued it from the trash. It looked so cold and lonely out there as if no one wanted it anymore. All it's years of hard labor to be sentenced to the curb? So I took her home and gave her a bath, piece by piece. I washed the bag in the washer and hung it...

    Bidding list........ Take a look at the bid list. Interesting that the last two bidders were totally at the last minute. I'm seriously thinking there's something up with this. We go from $430.00 to $1299.00?????? Thoughts? Am I missing something? Member Id: w***7( 1481) US...

    Funniest Thing Ever Heard In A Vac Shop!!

    I haven't seen one of these before...

    Spirits are among us as well. I just saw a Spirit upright at the Good Will earlier today. I thought they were all canisters. Hmmmmm.......

    It's been a Spirited few weeks!

    I saw that CL ad in Stillwater. I'm glad to see someone got it for a great deal! As luck would have it, I don't travel to the Twin Cities any longer. Every other year......Thanksgiving without fail. But now? LoL.... Is that HUGE antique store sill open just before you get to the...

    Whats your quietest and loudest vacuum?

    The quiet one has to be the pink Hoover (587??) that was my Grandmother's and the loudest without a doubt, was the Hoover Dimension 1000. However, with all respect to both machine's as they've gone to the trash (talk to my ex...) or wherever witches suffering mid-life crisis' send old vacuum's...

    Early Christmas present

    Congratulations on your........ find, Brian! I've had my eye open for the yellow one and would love to find one. It's from the late 70's........I think. I've always thought it was cool with the decal. I have the 75th Anniversary edition with a great decal as well.

    I finally got a steamer!

    Thanks, Fred....... I'm thinking it would be great for ceramic in the bathrooms too. And probably the right size to clean behind the toilet as well. I'm glad to know it lasts fairly long without having to stop and refill. We had a Steambuggy a few years back that worked well, but it seemed...

    I finally got a steamer!

    That cord looks like it could make it out to the driveway. Awesome.... I was wondering if those could be used on hardwood? We had a 3/4 oak floor, but with a factory finish that was a bear to clean. It streaked with the mop really bad. However, the Hoover Floormate worked pretty good as it...

    GE canister bags? HELP PLEASE!!!

    Found it........... They still have that at one of our 3000 Wal-Mart's here in the West Chicago Suburbs. Click on the link below and it should pull up the closest location to you, or on-line ordering information. Sears comes up by me. I'm sure you have one near you as well. Good luck! =0)...

    Hoover Christmas commercial - Circa. 1980 (?)

    Inpired by Jon...... I went looking at some other commercials. Isn't this the Christmas we all dreamed of? Also, love the "four on the floor" comment.

    Vacuum Commercials

    Unbelievable! Am I the only one who notices how far back in the day the early 90's seem? The commercial's tag lines and music seem so "old school." That was the 90's........NOT the 1890's..... We were cool by then. Right????? RIGHT??? =o/

    An Electrolux

    Not impressed in the least! However, it's been fun to mess with. I had my doubts on perfomance as we used to have a Linhaus at work. They seem similar. And.....the performance, or lack thereof stands the same. I'm sure they're best for commercial use with low pile carpeting and bare...
