    I Must Be Dreaming....

    Would it still be under warranty or am I not that lucky?

    I Must Be Dreaming....

    Tom, the manufacturer's sticker is missing, is there any other way to get the serial number?

    I Must Be Dreaming....

    Here is just a phone picture of the Radiance. I really like it but I'm afraid to use it until I get the handle replaced. I don't think I've ever used such an aggressive vacuum!

    Eliminating dog odor in vacuums?

    I don't know if they still make them, but Oreck made scent tablets made exclusively for the XL21. I had tons of vanilla scented ones a while ago. I just stuck them in vacuum bags that smelled, or put them in with the exhaust filter and it completely got rid of the odor until the bag needed...

    I Must Be Dreaming....

    Tom, I was able to build one good one from various parts! I need to order a new handle because there is a small crack in the current one, making it pretty loose. I also need the HEPA filter and cover, as well as the attachments. Is there any chance I could order those from you?

    I Must Be Dreaming....

    Bobby, I'll post a picture of the handle when I get home tonight. I'm not sure about the spring-loaded wheels but I'll check up on that. It's funny that I found this because I was just telling another collector how I wanted to find a nice Simplicity 7 Series. I'll gladly take this instead!  ...

    two new vacuums to the now growing collection

    I almost bought that Simplicity at that flea market a few months ago. I decided against it since I didn't want to drag it home.

    I Must Be Dreaming....

    Lately my Goodwill has not had any vacuums whatsoever. It has been really disappointing, until today....   I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this Riccar sitting in the back for $18. I didn't even bother to turn it on. I took it right up to the register and checked out. This has probably...

    Dirt Devil Turbo Tool

    I have one of these also. It was left in one my dad's houses, along with a basic model purple Vision upright. I'm guessing they were just a bonus offered with some machines maybe.

    Miele S7 Salsa... fair price for used?

    I love these! I bought my blue one on Amazon for $429 last year and I don't have any regrets. I'm jealous since you found this model so cheap, especially with the headlights! You'll absolutely love it! Chase

    I need recommendations.

    I'd recommend a bagged Kenmore Intuition upright. They're easy to use and great deep cleaners. You can usually find them on sale for around $199. Hope that helps. Chase

    A Crazy Trash Find

    Nathaniel, it is a green model. I have a blue one laying around somewhere. I love these. They clean well and I really like seeing what I pick up. These filters have never been a problem for me. Bobby, lately I've been having quite a bit of luck! I've actually found some more stuff within the...

    New Hometek Cyclonic Upright HT681

    We have that here as the Dirt Devil Swerve. They sell for $99 but I've seen them on sale for $79. I've almost bought one several times but opted not to. Chase

    A Crazy Trash Find

    I didn't mention them, but last night I also found a Hoover Soft & Light, a Hoover Bagless, and a bagged Bissell Powerforce. I was so excited when I saw the Soft & Light because my parents had one of these a long time ago that we used in one of our campers. It needs a really good cleaning and...

    A Crazy Trash Find

    One of my friends gave me a call a while ago and said that her neighbor was throwing away a vacuum. I made a quick trip to her house and was completely surprised when I saw a Kenmore Progressive canister laying in the grass. I thought it was too good to be true but I took it anyways. I got it...

    What would YOU do if you were ORECK?

    To answer one question, yes, Oreck was the one to put an actual AM/FM radio in the handle. It was a yellow 2800 model. The only problem was, from what I've heard, you could only use the headphones that came with the vacuum.
