    TriStar

    TriStar Rex, Sorry I got those posted to the wrong section. That is what happens when an old guy tries to use a laptop! Yes, my machine has a large Hepa filter that fits on the exhaust. I thought it ruined the style of the machine much like that big old hepa filter that stuck on the Lux...

    rainbow

    Rainbow BikerRay, Those are the nicest examples A,B,C I have ever seen. Beautiful examples of some really unique machines. Way ahead of their time in the machine and tool design compared to the old dust blowers of the same era. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

    Electrolux U.S. 1933-63

    Electrolux History Wow John, That is great material and much appreciated. What a shot of history! Makes me HAPPY to get rid of my plastic China uprights and almost ashamed of the great past names they put on appliances now.

    Pre TTI

    Pre TTI John, He has the real deal. I bought 2 packages yesterday when Michael Turner and I were at his house picking up my serviced Electrolux. My poor little Hoover canister was relieved when it saw the GENUINE HOOVER bags coming into the house-haha. The replacements I just bought do not...

    I would buy again JUST for this function of my Rainbow

    It is the time of year to scrub the painted cement porch floor. The Rainbow does such a wonderful job of both scrubbing the irregular surface and then sucking all the dirty water and leaving a clean surface in just a few minutes without damaging the painted surface. I use 2-3 fills of floor...

    Update on Lux Guardian Platinum Vacuum

    Update on new Lux Guardian Platinum Vacuum Bud, you think the problem is the lack of a seal on the inlet tube and not the bag itself? That sounds just like the new Panasonic canister I had out. It did the same thing even when I used the more expensive hepa bags. The inside of the canister had a...

    My new Pro Aqua

    My new Pro Aqua Colby, I would be very interested in hearing more about your new machine. I have the new Rainbow and also the new Hyla. I much prefer the Rainbow because it is more advanced and user friendly. My 2 big objections to my Hyla are the machine uses 2 times the water which makes it...

    change in Hoover K bags

    change in Hoover K bags Second shot of bag and collar. It may prove to be ok but I want to make sure I don't get dirt escaping into the bag compartment, filter and motor. Not sure why they would change the shape of the bag.

    change in Hoover K bags

    I just ordered some new bags for my Hoover canister from Hoover . I noticed that they have changed the shape of the bag and they have replaced the sturdy plastic collar with a thin cardboard collar. I have not used the new bags yet BUT I hope it does not give the same results as the...

    Hyla

    Hyla Chris, I can only relate what my experience has been on my applications. I think both are quality products but the Rainbow power nozzle is clearly easier to use when I compare them side by side because of it's design features. I related this story before on the forum but it is what sort of...

    Hyla

    Hyla Mark, Also notice on the underside of the power nozzles, the Hyla has multiple screws that go into plastic. Removing the bottom plate takes more time and care not to strip the threads when clearing a clog on the air path. The new Rainbow has a user friendly quick release where no tools are...
