    What's your opinion on customizing old vac's?

    Although original is most ideal, it’s not always possible…. If I’m going to modify something, I need to be able to justify the modification in my mind. My best example is one that’s currently on my to-do list: My Lux Auto G that I want to make practicable for daily use. I intend to do this by...

    A Golden Vacuum Cleaner

    Seller has 100% feedback on relatively new account too. That a good sign so far.

    Shark Vacuum Fascination

    Not all Sharks have HEPA Definitely not all stick vacs or the Rocket models.

    Shark Vacuum Fascination

    Madman- Shark seems to be one of the few doing informercials and they seem to release new models faster than the other brands. It's almost as if they call the factory in China to have them switch things up in the middle of a production run so that they can release something newer that's been...

    crazy price for Health-Mor UPRIGHT Vacuum Cleaner !!

    Wait and see If the seller actually gets it. He’ll probably just take the best offer he gets, but I think he’d do better with a concealed reserve bid. This one is on my list of machines to see in person.

    Shark Vacuum Fascination

    “Fascination”?? I was thinking of the word “bamboozle”. It seems like there’s a constant barrage of new Shark models that are flash in the pan: gone as soon as we realize we like them. Their entire product line is so incongruous that it’s hard to determine what their market strategy is. As soon...

    Does Rainbow E2 Black really need a hepa filter?

    CPAP machines I’ve only seen three of them up close, but they each had their own filtration setup for incoming air. Not trying to start a new discussion, but I thought it was worth mentioning for the sake of accuracy.

    Potential New Kirby Vacuum Model Discussion

    I wouldn’t rely on that info… I suspect that they’re denying a new model and not saying anything in order not to interfere with selling more of their currently available inventory. Anyone holding out for the next model wouldn’t want to buy the current one.

    The new Air-Way Ultra Kleen

    Those bags are more than acceptable I don’t understand why everyone uses Miele as a benchmark for comparison. I don’t think that’s very fair, no more than comparing to any other brand with HEPA because everything that Miele knows about making HEPA machines was learned the hard way and the...

    The new Air-Way Ultra Kleen

    Well said gsheen! We’re surrounded by Chinese made products and they aren’t going away. You also brought up a very good point about how the one sourcing the finished product gets to decide what caliber the final product will be.

    The new Air-Way Ultra Kleen

    Why don’t you keep your opinion to yourself before you shame a real member of the vacuum industry over the brands that he chooses to carry in his shop! It just shows more poor judgment on your part, reminds me of the time you told everyone in the forum about how you deflowered your boyfriend and...

    Potential New Kirby Vacuum Model Discussion

    “keep that in your mind and then stop talking about it “… Isn’t that always the hardest part???

    The new Air-Way Ultra Kleen

    Very cool! How solid does the machine feel? The under side of the power nozzle looks like a variant of the one made for the Eureka Express.

    Happy Birthday Hoover Convertible

    Sounds like it will be great fun! I’m sure all of you know how to use the cameras on your smartphones, so PLEASE take lots of photos! Can you just imagine that here, in 2022, some vacuum collectors STILL don’t know how to use their smartphone cameras? Isn’t that silly???[this post was last...

    A few nice vintage vacuums

    Stellar machines! Have you ever posted more detailed pics of the GE U-1? That’s definitely a “holy grail” machine and not one that has much presence online.

    Happy Birthday Hoover Convertible

    Those colors are amazing! I like the diversity of your collection-one of every color. No “twosies” or threesies” of the same model here!
