    Simplicity 7 Series

    Love these!!! I have a Riccar 8850 and LOVE it! I need to get attachments for it since they are all missing and I filter, but it really is a beast. Powerful and lovely to use.

    To seal, or not to seal, now is the question.

    I ordered a BPI light for my ultimate G that I just finished restoring. It was only six bucks on ebay.... The finish on mine could be better, but I don't have a bench polisher. Sniff.....

    what vacuums do you use the most?

    Well.... It's forever changing, but right now it's my Hoover Windtunnel. Been using it regularly the past two or three weeks and have managed to fill the bag about half way.

    My Collection!

    Thank you!!! Love my Singer upright, but yes VERY loud! Also that area I store most of my machines is actually my bedroom closet and it's not very big. I've actually had to move most everything upstairs because I was tired of having no closet space haha!

    Common vacuums seen in trash

    YES!!! I cant believe how many vacuum's I've found in the trash or at thrift stores that simply need to be unclogged or have a broken belt. And if they are bagless the filters just needs to be washed or replaced. Like someone said above everything is so cheap now, if it doesn't suck up they...
