Christmas Gifts I gave my mom and dad one for Christmas. I ended up helping them unbox it and assemble it....I must say, I’m VERY impressed with it so far! It’s quiet, powerful, and just a really cool vacuum. Mom loved it, but got half mad at me thinking I spent a lot of money on it for...

Gareth That turned out absolutely fantastic! You took a basket case of a vacuum and completely transformed it into a thing of beauty that any museum would be proud to display! I hope you get many years of enjoyment out of it!

Last but CERTAINLY not least..... The Air Revolve in the “fancy” box arrived! This is definitely the one I’ll be keeping NIB. The others are Christmas gifts, but I’m keeping this one....I got tickled at the FedEx guy, he asked me today “why the hell did you order so many vacuum cleaners?”...

FedEx Delivered..... Five of the six Hoover Air Revolves I ordered! I honestly was skeptical I would even get them, but there they sat, five very large boxes on my front porch! Needless to say I’m VERY ecstatic! One more to go!

Sold out... The model with the power nozzle is sold out, but they still have the model that doesn’t include one. I just ordered three more myself. Christmas presents are going to be vacuums this year!!

I bit the bullet.... And just ordered one at the $49.99 price point. We’ll see how it goes. According to the website, they only have 8 of them left after I ordered mine. I’ll update when mine arrives!!

Aiden That right there is EXACTLY why the back of his shop is so full of vacuum trade-ins! When I was there, he had a ton of them then, and that’s been several years ago! I purchased a functional Silverado from him for $50, so you might be able to use that as a starting point. At that time...

Is he willing to part with..... His Model V yet? I’ve had my eye on that ever since I first spotted it!

Jimmy If you do run across that literature, would you care to make me a copy of it? Since I have two CE’s I’d LOVE to have some accompanying literature, brochures, owners manuals, etc. to go with them! Thanks!

Brochures I know this is a long shot in the dark, but does anyone have a brochure for an UltraLux Commemorative Edition they would scan and post by any chance?

Mike Sirena told me that their newest model actually has an all-in-one hose like the Rainbow. Water pickup and electric all in one. I’m also talking with Quantum to see about the possibility of a distributorship with them as well! It will be interesting to see if this works out!

I don’t know..... If eBay removed the listing, or the seller ended it themselves, but it’s already ended!

Shoot...... I wanted to see the fan!!

Motor Issues Thanks guys! I’ll dig into it very soon. I haven’t checked it out yet mysel, the guy I got it from said fire and smoke shot out of it when he plugged it in. So who knows, might be as simple as a bad cord! I do know the switch seems seized. The motor itself turns freely, so...

Dominion Fan Unfortunately, this fan’s motor is toast, but I couldn’t argue with the price...FREE! I have a spare two speed motor I will mount in this baby and have it up and running soon I hope!

Today I visited two thrift shops I’ve never been to before. Didn’t expect to find anything worth bringing home, but much to my surprise, I brought home several new toys! For less than $17 I came home with two Eureka Airspeed One’s, two vintage box fans, and a Kirby Sentria I!

BEAUTIFUL collection! And in such amazing condition! Something to be extremely proud of and happy to display! I also spy a beautiful Electrolux XXX hiding in a couple of those photos!!

Hans Believe me when I tell you it’s TOTALLY worth the drive! I drove 4 1/2 hours each way, and plan to do it again before winter! I left with a truck bed FULL of vacuums, and I couldn’t have beeen happier!! Steve

Thanks everyone! I'm nervous about this venture, but I think it will be a good one! I already own a newer E2 Rainbow, so I can at least demonstrate both machines for them, and they can see both of them side by side and in action. I figure that would be a good way to help them decide if they...

Shop/Online I am actually in the process of getting a shop set up at my house, but for the time being, I will be selling online as much as possible. I'm starting slowly on this, that way I don't have a ton of overhead to start off with! I will eventually set up a website as well, but that's TBA!
