    10 Amp Sharp?

    Panasonicvac Dang!!! Thats a good memory. Oddly enough I didnt remember the Bravo! I was only thinking of one video where it wasnt the whole collection. But I absolutely do remember the other vids on the Broom Vac, the DD Purpose. Dont remember the Panasonic but once again I believe it because...

    10 Amp Sharp?

    Panasonicvac I remember some of Clubcars videos! One of them he showed off like 5 of his vacs, one of them was this Sharp, an old Elite Supreme, a Maxima, a Boss Superlite, but can't remember what the 5th was. I miss some of the old yt videos.

    Something crossed my mind.....

    Panasonicvac Aren't the original PowerMax uprights on the whole similar to the Elite Ones? Similar arm on the front for the self propelled mechanism, the bases are very identical etc. Only difference being the shape of the upper bodies.

    Something crossed my mind.....

    panasonicvac Thats awesome concepts for that folding handle Kenmore. Really sleek looking machine right there. And the Kirby with the bag in the back looks solid, really would've been neat aesthetically. I also like to think about what I call what ifs. What if several popular machines we know...

    Something crossed my mind.....

    I wonder if there was any plans or blueprints for vacuums that never made the cut into actual production. Like during the 90s and early 2000s, I would imagine there were several Bissells, Eurekas, Hoovers etc that never saw the light of day but were thought up.

    Maytag Hoovers: Who made those motors?

    There's machines like the original Hoover Floormate, Steamvac Jr, SteamVac etc, that have rather similar sounding motors to vacuums from other brands, like the Oreck XLs from the early 2000s. I always thought even the Windtunnel uprights sounded like a muxh quieter and more muffled XL despite it...

    Old photo of Hoovers from late 90s

    VacsofProsper Trading posts were always fewer but according to Google, the main difference is trading post is moreso household stuff and hardware is more like the outdoor stuff.

    Correct! This was known as the trading post I believe because this Ace is HUGE

    Old photo of Hoovers from late 90s

    I love going on the internet and finding gems of photos like this. My favorite era of Hoover, and all of them newly packaged. This was on the old Ace Trading Post website and it's such a great roster of vacuums. The Windtunnel Deluxe, the Breathe Easy, Powerdrive, etc. If anyone with an eagle...

    Rug doctor acquired by Bissell?

    I understand that Im just saying of the only choices the big box stores give nowadays theyre the best ones. Definitely not for vacuums overall. I still like my Maytag Era Hoovers over all.

    Rug doctor acquired by Bissell?

    Alot of people diss on Bissell but..... Honestly we've never had an issue with any of what theyve put out over the years. Right now theyre probably among the most powerful big box retailer machines. The ones I have pull up alot of hidden sand and gunk. The Bissell Velocity from like 2006 was a...

    Forgotten Hoover Products

    Never saw this..... A green translucent Hoover Windtunnel Supreme (BEFORE they started labeling their machines as 12 amp) with an electronic bag indicator. This ones new to me. These are definitely among the best Hoover ever made.

    Anyone have any info on this Hoover

    Under one of the threads, someone added specs about the Dimension and Legacy style Hoover cleaners. I knew about the Dimension II upright but I was unaware there were actually 2 separate versions of it. There's the U5211 AND the U5212 that apparently has the 12 amp motor rather than the 7 amp...

    A brand new toy!!!!!

    This was one of those vacuums I saw in a store as a kid that I only dreamed of having one day, such a cool design for an Elite. The body of a Preferred, and the sleek power head of a caddy vac! This is a Hoover Breathe Easy manufactured in August of 2002. 12 amp model, so closer to the end of...

    Just bought a "new" HOOVER!!!!

    Heyyyyy!!!!! Ive seen your vids on YouTube, you have an awesome collection!!!!! And ive seen the vid of the black Breathe Easy, I think those were also exclusive to Walmart. Back when vacuum shopping was cool, and not Dyson or Shark or brands just copying Dyson or Shark LOL. I miss the era of...

    VacsofProsper Ok, you caught me red handed! 😂 yes I bought the Breathe Easy!!!!! Saw something like it in Walmart years ago, like maybe 2003-2004? Cant wait to try it for myself! Body of a Legacy/Preferred and the base of a Caddy Vac

    Just bought a "new" HOOVER!!!!

    Nope! Its Elite based but definitely one of the more bizarre entries to the series, closer to the end of its run too.

    panasonicvac Nope!!!! Its a direct air unit. Not among the most common variant either.
