So I picked up this contraption called a Grout Hog. The thing was in a garage, and the paint/coating was peeling off and the whole thing was disgusting.....Now that I know that it works I'm going to strip it down and repaint the base. Anyway, It seems to need a power switch, because it only...

The guy was probably elusive because he, like I, probably didn't want to say that he's making 100% profit on that machine because he garbage picked it or was given it. I like big foot vacs better, such as my s15. I paid $40 for that, but the clog/bag sensor is bad so it shuts itself off every...

Hi all; I have been looking into concept/powermax/drive brushrolls, and I found a parts site that claims to have double brush concept rollers for $36. I'm assuming original because I have not heard of any aftermarket company making those. When I looked up the powerdrive/max brushroll, the only...

I think the term vintage applies just as it would to people (though you wouldn't call someone vintage, maybe senior or geriatric) It'd be like telling someone who just turned 30 "how's it feel to be old?" and not So be joking about it either... I guess vintage vacs to me would be the 40's and...

Dysonman1; Thank you for your information and pictures of the Rexair A and B. I have heard many talks about the coveted model a but no one would or could ever produce pictures. Are you saying that the only thing that differentiates the b from the a (as far as how it works) is the diaphram? Or...

1992 Hoover Innovation and Concept 2. Correct me if I'm wrong on the innovation being around in 92'.

Well I need another deluxe like a hole in the head, but I'm sure it'll get a good home. Really bums me out when fellow collectors have to thin the herd out for whatever reasons. I drive to school everyday but if I had to live on campus I would put all my vacs in the finest storage facility in...

Love that wood grain matching power nozzle. I have a duo-power woodgrain but it must be an older one or BOL because it has this cheap loud pn, original though.

very nice Good scores are always a plus! Very nice transformax, rarely see even pictures of that model. I think back when they came out I was finacially in a position to buy one but being like 10 and having no one to support me (drive to the store) I lost out.

Your machine is a little different from my red one. mine has a stretch hose nearly the same as the world vac, and I believe it had the same method of attaching to the machine. But, yours looks like it takes the much longer regular plastic hose found on the somewhat-rare 7800 series (i.e., the...

I have a poor clear trak that has had a shot motor since I got it years ago. I have tried every motor and concoction to fit a motor in it, but only one came close. I am nearly at the point of tossing it and keeping the good stuff to save for another machine, or buy a motor assembly a sight...

Best: Innovation. runner up is concept series. worst: any clean air machine with the pleated paper tower filters.

I have one of those big nozzles and that looks like the 1 gallon (4qt.) container.

The email said for use with the g-series. I don't know a single thing about g-series nozzles, but I would imagine the nozzle itself is a different length/size than the pre 90' models. At this point it is a debate if it's cheaper to buy a g-series renovator or get the missing parts for my 1-Cr...

I was intrigued by a somewhat recent post about a new tile and grout cleaning kit for the generation series. My dad and I are deffinitely interested because 1/2 of his 6,200 sq.ft. main floor is tile, and a lot of the grout is getting pretty nasty. I have a G5 but have no desire to buy a...

I'm Interested!! I don't think I'm anywhere near cleavland, but I drove there once for something with my dad and we left mid morning, got there spent 1/2 the day there and got back by night so I think I could make the trip. I am very interested in that Royal/clarke, the royal canister and the...

Wow I never knew the whispertone name went back that far. That is a pretty cool machine, and the L-shaped pn you speak of is certainly something I've never seen on a kenmore.

Looks like a Hoover celebrity rebadge, I think that's hoover bag style H. Anything over 10 years old and 99% of the time the represenatives you talk to from the manufacturer will be of no help nor have the resources to get you what you need.

I would like to see a d4 style machine, with a dolly that is circular like the machine, and not much bigger than it. That and 1 other thing is the only thing I have against the older rainbows(my favorites); the dollys smack into and get caught on everything. The other thing, which I don't know...

In my opinion, they are worth it if you need it. That is, if you have alergies or are extra protective of the cleanliness of your vacuum's bag chamber. I have no alergies and dust does not bother me, so if a regular $.50 bag misses 5% of the dust going through it I don't care. I will say, my dad...
