    My Collection! :)

    haha it has resurrected! I won't know until this fall when i go :P I've also acquired lots of new vacuums since I posted this, so I'll probably post a collection update soon :) I'm hoping my parents will buy me a dyson DC44 for my dorm, but if not I'll probably go with my Miele S143

    Dirt Devil Broom Vac (1st Generation) Questions

    I've never.. ...worked on the motor of mine, but the vacuum itself is super simple to get into, much like the plastic handvacs it's just a two sided shell housing the motor. And sticking a little bit of grease on the brushroll caps after you pull them off is very easy :)

    Air watt and water lift question

I've been traveling all summer, so I just leant...
