    Sanitaire upright problems and recommendations

    New find. Concept u3103

    HooverWhoBetter, Thank you!:) I completely agree as well, I definitely love that colour. I have a Hoover Legacy 730 with a mauve coloured hood and striped grey bag, it's one of the most 80's looking machines I've ever seen.

    Thrift store find of a lifetime!

    That has to be on of the best thrift store finds ever!!! Older machines are becoming more and more scarce in my area, but I'd have to say my best thrift shop find was my Kirby 516 with all the boxes, attachments, paperwork etc. I'm sure that Hoover will clean up very well!
