hoover tools Thank you so much for the help. Not sure if I should get them as they most likely won't work very well. I have an old Filter Queen with fantastic suction. but it is very heavy and clumsy to use. I have a Kirby too, but putting on the hose is very tough since I had a couple of...

I recently inherited a Hoover Convertible model U 4171.It is low end model one speed no grip,half bumper,short cord, but it works great! I would like to get a tool set for it. What number tool set does this take? It is the front conversion It is only 4.3 motor,but it lifts the carpet right off...

Sunbeam For years I worked at a store that sold only Sunbeam vacs. Had them until they dropped the line, then went to Eureka and then Hoover. We sold a lot of Sunbeams, mainly canisters and stick vacs. They were well made and easy to use. The Challenger replaced the suitcase style Courier...

Hoover I was in high school when we got our 1020 Brady Hoover. Great machine. I recall how it vibrated the dirt out of our thick green living room carpet. We lived on a farm and a lot of dirt drifted into the house. The biggest treat was the throw a way bag. Our old GE upright was horrible to...

GE The GE is my dream vac. If anyone ever has one in running condition and the deluxe attachments let me know.

Kenmore If the bag and the motor are in the bottom,what is in the top section?It looks like the bag goes right up against the nozzle,how does the suction get to the hose?

DAM My DAM was my first vac I owned, and still is my favorite. I wish I would have kept it and just kept getting it fixed. It broke down twice so I traded it in for my first Kirby. The best thing about the DAM was it was so easy to use with the hose, and it had suction.Plus, you could pull it...

Eureka How did it walk by itself? Was it selfpropelled like a Hoover?

Thanksgiving I've always wondered why the first Dial a Matic had a floating head and the later models had the rug adjustment on the front. Enlighten me..............

In vac if the day, the Singer golden glide stated there is no pulling or tugging. How did it follow you around?

Flockiung I have always loved flocked trees,bought a new artificial one last year at Sears. Has white lights and I trimmed it in gold and brown,great. I flocked many trees with that sno jet contraption. It was a mess, so I gave it up and started buying real flocked trees. I used a Rainbow,a...

How did that converter work on that commercial Hoover?

compact Wow,never even thought about the lady,just the vac! IF you closely,her face could look manly without makeup, and her feet are quite large.............

Today's vac of the day is the Compact with a pretty fancy lady promoting it. I know nothing about the Compact. History anyone? Do they work well? Are they still made?

Hoover Go to Hoover web sight.There is a cyclonic stick vac with a windtunnel power head. I have had one for 2 years, and I love it. Works great on hard floor and carpet. No tools come with it.

Convention Are there any leftover vacs still for sale?

When Hoover invented the side conversion,what kept the brush role form eating up the carpet? This goes for later models like the Citation.

What year about is the Hoover picture from? I am guess about 72 since I see the 1020, the vac I grew up with. I know we discussed this before,but who made Hoover's small appliance line? From what I can figure. the mixer looks like an Oster,the can openers look like Rivals,and the percolator a...

I have always been a big GE fan and today's vac of the day is one I have never seen before. Very interesting design. Does anyone know if there was attachments for that machine and how they would connect?
