    Quite Possibly The Happiest Day Of My Life!

    That is a beautiful Kirby. Mostly all there, too. I'm not sure, but I think you might be missing a wand... Aren't you supposed to have two? Anyway, awesome looking Heritage II.

    Dyson clear bin, not so clear..?

    there is an automotive product called mequires plasticx. it is made to buff out micro-scratches in plastic headlights. i bet that would work.

    Rinsing a Dyson Shroud

    ! If I spent $600 on a vacuum, I would want it to clean the garage, too. Heck, for $600 it better clean the gutters, the litterbox, the dishes, and the windows! If they would take that $600 and buy a nice $300 Simplicity or Sanitaire, they could afford a nice shop vac, and all those...

    Today's Haul from Goodwill

    Here's what I brought home today from Goodwill. I gave $3 for the Eureka, $2 for the hand vac, around $1 for the Kirby accessories by weight and my favorite $2 for the vintage Kenmore Kwik Sweep! Tomorrow will bring many more. Anybody who wants any of them raise your hand.

    Barn Find Electro Hygiene Model 230

    Ok... I'll do that. I want the Eureka Bravo II though, not the F&G. My e-mail address is [email protected]. Shoot me an e-mail and we'll figure out shipping.

    The Dyson mattress tool. Is it worth it?

    I never thought about the noise thing. I haven't even tried the tool, only thought it was a great idea. I know my Kirby hoses are quite long, hadn't thought about that.

    The Dyson mattress tool. Is it worth it?

    I will say this, I love the new pet grooming attachment with a wire pet brush built into a vacuum brush. I think the price, $50 USD is rediculous, but when I think about it I brush my cats often and always come up with huge amounts of orange fur all over me and my apartment. I think it's very...

    Rinsing a Dyson Shroud

    They only sell used Dysons because they have to. What else does a vac shop do with a Dyson when someone trades it in on a decent machine like a Simplicity, Miele, Sanitaire, etc.?

    Anyone see this yet?

    IDK... It looks like just another gimmicky Shark vacuum with another worthless turbo powered brushroll...

    That is the bomb!! Tell you what... You got a new Kirby, why don't you continue the generosity and give me the old one?

    Barn Find Electro Hygiene Model 230

    IDK... what model number is the Sanitaire? The electro-hygiene has good suction but I have done literally nothing to it at all. It could really use a good working through.

    item wanted: kirby classic III attachment box.

    I have a Classic III box that I could give up. It's not really in good shape at all, lots of discoloration and tears, but it is intact.

    Another Amazing Prototype, You Won't Believe It!!

    I didn't cut anything down at all. They were basically identical vacuums. I spent more time cleaning the two of them than actually piecing the good parts together. I love the bag, though and I really love how when you take a picture of it the Kenmore reflects off of the base.

    Another Amazing Prototype, You Won't Believe It!!

    You realize this is a joke right? My last name is Patterson...

    Barn Find Electro Hygiene Model 230

    Is the Eureka hard body or or soft bag? I would consider a trade for the Dirt Devil 103 and the Eureka.

    Another Amazing Prototype, You Won't Believe It!!

    OMG... This is Amazing... I have come across another amazing, potentially one-of-a-kind prototype vacuum, in wonderful working condition!! I present to you, the amazing Patterson Sanitation Singmore Twin-Turbo-Fan in stunning two-tone color scheme!!!

    Barn Find Electro Hygiene Model 230

    Sure, I would contemplate a trade. I'm more into modern stuff. I would kill for a Dirt Devil Broom Vac (Not that stupid POS broom looking thing, the one that looks like a red royal). Do you have one of those you're willing to part with?

    As Requested, The Kirby Heritage G Prototype "Prometheus"

    This is what I wanted. I wanted people to see it and appreciate it for what it is. Many people have told me I was crazy to keep such strange things like an old Kirby with no attachments, but I knew it was special. And now I can see you guys raving about it like this, this is what I wanted for...
