    New Innovative Dyson FluffyCones PencilVac

    We know who you are and how you are. Your name has come up for years - nearly a decade now - and this has already been discussed over and over and over again. You can't undo the damage you have already caused to this community. Many collectors have had the misfortune of dealing with you on...

    New Innovative Dyson FluffyCones PencilVac

    VacuumFacts was banned on the old site. IDK how he got unbanned. He is a nuisance, and highly annoying and aggressive when you threaten his narrow-minded world view. He has had his reddit accounts banned 8 times. Also nobody cares about Dyson but kids that think having the most expensive stuff...

    Model XXX

    If you prep the hose properly and dont store it the same way it was stored before that got it ruined, it should be good for another 50 years. From what I understand the hose has to have all the old rubber and junk knocked out of it and brushed down of all the loose dirt and gunk, possibly...

    RIP old Vacuumland.

    I don't mind a new site, but why couldn't they have used VBulletin for the backend? Why...whatever this is? Way too cluttered.

    Got an Electrolux LX

    Yeah I have several company refurbished Kirbys, Hoovers, and Electroluxes and I just leave them as they are. It's an important part of history to both show what was going on at the time in repairing old vacuums, as well as how they were doing it. I just treat them as a variation of the original...

    Got an Electrolux LX

    Metropolitan operated very ad-hoc with their refurbs. I just got one unknowingly and swore someone Kryloned it in their garage until I seen the sticker on the bottom! I've got a model L and they went to town on it with the spraypaint, even sprayed over the wheels! It also had its wheels...

    How to remove cat urine from carpet with carpet cleaners?

    AmtrakSebo1997 I never said it could not be removed. I said it could not be removed by just going over it with a shampooer. You will find out.

    Is this website legitimate?

    It may be, it may not be. When the site is legit and they have all their inventory posted - most of the time after I click buy and they already charged my credit card they go "oh we don't have this". THEN WHY IS IT LISTED

    How to remove cat urine from carpet with carpet cleaners?

    You cannot use a machine to shampoo out cat urine especially if its soaked in. You will never get it out. I had to rip up all my carpeting and trash it. You can use it as a rinser to get the solution out of the carpet but it cannot get it out of the carpet on its own. Water will just spread the...

    Hoover Windtunnel 2

    Oooh wow yeah wool area rugs are very touchy with vacuums. No vacuums with nylon bristles. I learned the hard way and accidentally ruined one of my wool rugs with the vacuum. I was like "ooh wow look at all this dirt"...didn't realize at the time it was little tiny fibers being burned off from...

    Hoover plastic Convertible

    https://tinyurl.com/3ev8ystj This the one? Looks in good shape. Price might be $10-$20 too high IMO. But it's not "that" bad. I've seen worse for more.

    Finally packing, (boxing) tons of Hoover items

    Congrats on having a museum room for your collection, something a lot of us can only dream of! Yes once you start going through stuff you will find stuff that has a place and stuff that doesn't. I'd get the stuff set up first that you know what to do with and know what you want to keep then...

    A HOOVER home

    Nice little collection! Not many people know Hoover made small kitchen gadgets. I have one of the irons and the electric skillet myself.

    Hoover Windtunnel 2

    Nice find! That's a rare one. I think someone here has one in green, I forgot who it was but it was a few years back.

    Surface Care Appliances & Shoes in Browns & Beiges

    The mid and late half of the 1970's did have that brown loafers tone going on with it. The early 70s was more of that vomit and mustard yellow coming off the coattails of the midcentury vogue. I have never seen an Electrolux painted in those colors before but Electrolux did paint...
