Thread Number: 8754 I think it was like the one pictured. That, or a vintage Oreck. I noticed a white vacuum hose in the garage background too, I'm not sure what episode it was though. Perhaps it was when they remodeled the garage or when they were trying to breed minks.

Thread Number: 8640 I'm not a 100% sure, but I think the plastic fans are lighter and put less strain on the motor allowing it to go faster or something along those lines.

Thread Number: 8346 A Rainbow D-4 Question?? I have that problem too. I can only suggest maybe bending the prongs a bit closer together. Other than that, I don't believe that there is really anything that can be done. It gets to be quite annoying, I can sympathize.

Thanks for all the good info! Alex

Hey there, I was wondering if anyone had seen or heard of an upright Rainbow Vacuum cleaner? There was this website that said there were upright Rainbows. This was a first to me, I couldn't find anything on an upright model. Also, does anyone know how well the new Rainbow E2's suction is or...

Thread Number: 8151 puratron vac Hey guys, I hate to be the devil's advocate, but,I am a nursing student, and not to long ago I completed a medical Microbiology class. Microbiology is the study of bacteria, for those of you who aren't familiar with it. These vacuums have got to be a gimmick...

Thread Number: 8121 I really like them. I have always wanted one, but, they discontinued making them. I was just curious, how is the suction on them? Are they as powerful as the Everlast's suction? Thanks!

Thank you!

Hey there, I have a Royal Everlast that's only a couple of years old. However, the brush has trouble turning on the lowest setting or even close to the low settings. I have to use it on low for it even to get close to my carpet. It worked fine on low until the last few weeks. Would getting a...

Thread Number: 7537 How cute! I want one.

Thread Number: 7302 Thank you very much, that puts my burning question to rest. It has been driving me crazy for a long time! Alex

Hello, I was just curious if anyone knew if the Electroluxes that were manufactured and or sold throughout Europe were made by the same Electrolux Company in America? I know that the American Electrolux company was just fairly recently bought out by the European Electrolux appliance company...

Hey There, I have been desperately trying to figure out some the carpet shampooer brands that existed in the late 1980's and early 1990's. I know there was Rug Doctor, Thermax and Rinse N' Vac. I remember some tall metal one but not the brand name. Also my Mother swears there was a brand called...

Hey All, I have was wondering what people are thinking about the Hoover Platinum Bagged Uprights performance? Are they good cleaners and do they pull the carpet nap up well? Also what is the consensus on Oreck Platinums? Just curious if they are worth the price tag? Thanks, Alex

Thread Number: 7029 Hey there, I was in the local vacuum shop a few weeks ago and I was wondering why Royals had gone down in quality at least for the canisters and uprights not including the Everlast Series, which even they have been made cheaper, but they still have the great power and all...

Thread Number: 6939 Hello, I used to use straight suction sometimes when my power-head would break or my upright was in the shop, or when I was just in a hurry or lazy. For the most part it did an okay job. However, when compared to using the upright or powerhead, the difference was definately...

Thread Number: 6821 Hey There, I think it probably depends on the vacuum. Although I prefer a bagged vacuum, some bagless vacuums clean well and yours just might have a better brushroll or more air flow than your bagged vacuum etc. But, I think that a more likely reason for all the fluff that...

Hey Guys, My friend is looking to buy a new bagless upright vacuum cleaner. I'm not into bagless vacuums,so I don't know much about them. I much prefer bagged models, but he's bent on having a bagless. What do you think is the best bagless vacuum currently on the market. Also do you think that...

Thread Number: 6625 Wow, I should have looked at your picture first. I have never seen a blue canister style Rug Doctor before. We only had red ones in my hometown. Maybe these blue ones were available for you to purchase yourself, like the blue ones are today. It's pretty neat though.

Thread Number: 6625 Hi there, I am pretty sure that the red Rug Doctor machines are rental units and blue Rug Doctor machines are for purchasing yourself. I remember it by Red for Rent, Blue to Buy. I thought it was pretty weird when I first saw the blue ones too, because I thought red was Rug...
