    Exhibition update

    Jonathan – why didn’t you tell me you were thinking of coming - I would have been happy to have met you at the gallery and given you a tour! Only about a quarter of my entire collection was on display, but as you will have seen, there wouldn’t have been room for anything else without making it...

    Can someone help me with my Electrolux TwinClean?

    I had a TwinClean not long ago...I ended up selling it to my friend Al (vacbear58). It's a lovely cleaner, solid, quiet and powerful, although the whole "self-cleaning" filter set-up was nothing more than a gimmick, really. I really can't think what can be causing your suction issues, I'm...

    Best new upright for hardwood floors

    I'm sure others will be able to recommend other brands - Remember that great slogan from the Hoover 700 ad - 'It pays to know the difference between The Hoover and a vacuum cleaner'? It would be equally true now to say - 'It pays to know the difference between The Dyson and a bagless'! The...

    You are not going to BELIEVE this friends! A vacuum with TWO motors!

    9 years in development, my a$$. See link below for a classic example of why journalists should stick to writing about what they know, and not allow themselves to become wholly dependant on press releases! 'bag-less design also reduces clogging and increases performance'...must use magic...

    Pic of Day - Hoover 150

    what exactly is the full bag indicator,and how does it work? I'd take pics of mine, but it's at the gallery until Monday, so I don't have access right now. I seem to remember Marty Kaplan posted some great pics of the 150 indicator mechanism a while back??

    Hoover Building, London

    I can't make up my mind if this is an actual Hoover office with a dummy brick wall set up outside the window, or a set. I'm leaning towards Hoover office.

    Hoover Building, London

    This is NOT the Hoover Building. There are plenty of interior shots which have either been filmed at other location, or shot on a soundstage. This is some other building which is used extensively in the story for interior shots. Notice the marble and overly-ornate banisters don't match the...
