    Eureka Christian Klingspor Mighty Mite II

    I’ve always wanted a Mighty Mite II and I found this one on eBay a month or two back. It’s in overall good shape minus the scuffing. It doesn’t have any of the attachments that store on the cleaner and has a different floor tool than the Mighty Mites came with. Were there any other machines in...

    Electrolux Super J question

    I have this Super J that I've had for a few years that I've finally gotten around to tearing into since the motor wasn't running right and found the armature is pitted and severely discolored. I was wanting to know my options on a motor replacement since I cleaned it up and the motor seems to...

    Eureka Aero Straight Suction Canister

    Thanks! I’ll get those ordered! I’ll get a picture of the rating plate when I get home. This is a suction only model and it does have the blank where the outlet for the power nozzle would have gone. It’ll still make a nice companion to my Convertibles, Elite, Classic Omega and my F&G uprights...

    Eureka Aero Straight Suction Canister

    It’s all cleaned up now! I’ve still got some parts to hunt for but I’m happy with how it turned out so far!

    Eureka Aero Straight Suction Canister

    I picked this up at the Habitat Restore in Amarillo for $10 about a year ago. I had found a NOS hose that would fit this vacuum and I am still on the search for a power button cover with no luck so far. I hope to find some attachments as the ones I ordered off of eBay were off of a Powerline and...

    Some old vacuums, and people too.

    One day I'll have to come check it out! I love all vacuums in general and y'alls place is somewhere I want to visit.

    I didn’t have the exact model but I had a machine like that.

    TriStar Closing?

    ridgidwd0670 They are the same machine. the website has a copyright of 2019 and talks about Aerus in their about us section. They may retire the TriStar name, but who knows for now. http://www.airejett.com/#header

    When’s the last time y’all have seen one of these?

    Gregvacs28 I believe it’s the angle. The hose is the same diameter as the bagged Tempo. These old Bagless systems intrigue me since they tried so many odd designs. I can honestly say this one was weird and honestly doesn’t work very good. It has a foam seal going from the dust cup, but it...

    When’s the last time y’all have seen one of these?

    My old bosses at the furniture store gave this to me a couple months ago. It is presently in pieces waiting for its trip through my Kitchenaid KDS-18 that I use as a parts washer. This vacuum and I had history as it was used in the store until I brought them a Kirby G3 to use in the store. The...

    Shop vac is over

    I know when it came time to replace my old 5 Gallon Shop Vac, I looked that Shop-Vac's line up in Late 2018/Early 2019 at both Walmart and Morton's Ace Hardware. I was unimpressed with how the cheaply the fit and finish seemed to be on the display models, but I also looked at a few of the...

    Hoover Powerdash Pet Problems

    I’m going to disassemble it tomorrow and see what I can see.

    Hoover Powerdash Pet Problems

    I’m honestly leaning towards fixing it. It’s a good cleaner but I think I got a lemon. I’d rather not throw it away. I’ve put new motors in vacuums and I’ve maintained my entire collection over these years so I’m going to treat it no different than I would a vintage one.

    Hoover Powerdash Pet Problems

    My wife bought me a Hoover PowerDash Pet back in July and its been a good cleaner, but here recently the motor sounds absolutely dreadful and has a bit of an electrical smell. I stupidly didn't register it when I had the receipt and don't know where its at. I fear the motor is going bad. Is it...

    Any Info on this?

    EurekaFanSquid That’s the magic of advertising! They can make any product look appealing and make it look like they work the best. I’ve used a couple of machines like this and they seemed really finicky and fell over easily as they couldn’t support itself in the upright position. My former boss...

    What would be a good recommendation for a Central Vacuum System?

    My wife and I are about to close on our first house. We talked it over and we want to install a Central Vacuum. Our house is roughly 1700 square foot with a detached 800 square foot garage with attached wood shop. We haven’t done any looking yet, but I know many of y’all have systems and I...

    T-Series? Tempo?

    From what I understand this is the replacement for the Bagged Windtunnel Max. I like the new coloration over the red.
