agreed!!! The older style motor was way better. Fix this thing up. This is a special oddball and is very much worth keeping around. I wonder why this has the c-8 hose and cord but the c-9 power nozzle? Is this model a c-8 or c-9?

Very easy to replace so if you find one do not worry.

I have worked at 4 county mental health for just shy of 15 years. I LOVED my job for 10 of those years. The last 4.5 years however have been a challenge and everyone kept telling me to get out, Esspecially Shaylee. Well I finally did it. In an HR meeting I didn't like what she had to say and so...

Yes Compact and Tri-Star are made by the same company. They changed the name to Tristar is the very early 80's. The Tri-Star you are talking about would be either a CXL or a DXL made between 1992ish to about 1998ish

I bought a POD for Shaylee because she wanted something quick around the house other than her Oreck buster B (can you imagine using only a little Buster B!!!) Anyhow she really likes it. I like it too. It didn't WOW me like I had hoped it would but it is a good vacuum. I love that it's so light...

Yes this is a Renaissance. There are 2 versions. This is the first version with darker grey (charcoal - grey) and the second version was a light grey (oyster - grey). Only difference between the two models were the color. The Renny was the first to have this bigger bulkier design which I...

That second one looks to be a revamped version of the Regina Electric broom Power-Team launched in 1978-early 90's. so now question is did they have any connection to Regina or Oreck?

These were pretty good vacuums. I remember them when they first came out in the early/mid 90s. I wanted one so bad I remember a tv commercial where a woman is using it to clean a museum and she's vacuuming the fur on a whooly mammoth.

looks like Regina Housekeeper crossed with Dyson lol

Brush N beats Here is the Regina next to my Brush N Beat upright that was gifted to me by my good friend Rick A last year.

They need a little TLC still but I will get to that. The G needs wheels replaced which I think I have. I did not expect to find anything worthy of me shipping back from Spokane Wa.but these 2 treasures were worth the trouble! I never expected to find these waiting for me at Marc's shop. Thank...

Obviously it's a royal power tank from the early 2000s but I have never heard of one private labeled allergy free. The woman I got this from at a garage sale said that she bought this from an allergy clinic and paid $400 for it.

Hello, that lever raises the height of the nozzle. You step down in the metal tab below it to lower and then step on the white tab to raise. Its so very easily breakable that I NEVER step on it. I try not to ever change it. Tom thank you for selling me the wonderful Electrolux set! I think I...

My name is Phillip. I have happily been a vacuum collector/dealer/repairman/enthusiast my entire life (33 years). I'm happily married to my beautiful wife Shaylee (4 years) and we have a beautiful 7 month old son named Maverick. Shaylee has since meeting me been adding to the collection of...

John, you have my vote!!!!

Hey Rick, I have not had a chance to take pis of those very special treasures yet but I'm hoping I will have some time tonight. I'm excited to share them with the group

Yes that is the original 1959 Electrloux AF WITH THE ORIGINAL GREY PN-1!!! this was my original Holy Grail machine! The Electrolux model T did not come from tacony but I did get it on that trip, The Bison is model 1,000 and is pretty rare. It was the first model to be sold in stores after they...

Shaylee, Maverick and I recently went on a small road trip to St. Louis so Uncle Ricky could meet Maverick. We also wantes to stop at Tacony to see some old friends there as well at their Convention. Here is what I brought home from the Museum.

Jeff, How much did the cord winder and power nozzle change the price? Did you sell many power nozzles?

I love that 505!!
