    Dirt Devil Turbo Tool

    Here is an old QVC picture that shows a Dirt Devil Vision with that attachment.

    IF Your Daily Driver Could Do Something Extra, What Would It Be?

    I'd give my Sebo X2 a longer hose & brushroll on/off, and I'd give my Riccar 8900 a hose.

    Miele Upright S 7000 -- running hot?

    Most vacuums get hot after long periods of use. How long have you had the filter? It may be clogged up, causing dust to escape and preventing the heat from leaving the vacuum.

    Your "Dream car".

    I'm a huge Honda Prelude fan, so one of these.

    Simplicity 7 Series

    Nice Simplicity! Other than the decals being a little scratched up, it appears to be in good cosmetic condition. Does this one have the metal bottom plate?

    Aerus Lux Guardian Platinum

    Are you sure the motors on the mieles were burnt out? I once sold the trade ins for a Kirby dealer, and nearly all of the vacuums they received were working. At most, the machines needed about 30 min of cleaning and a new belt.

    Simplicity 7 Series

    One of the most impressive vacuums in my collection is the Riccar 8900. The vacuum works well on both hard floors and carpets, and is on par with my Sebo X series. I have the bottom of the line model, so my vacuum can only clean floors unless the extension hose is added, but I can actually hear...

    If I could talk to Aerus

    The sentria came out about 7 years ago. I'm pretty sure that Kirby is about to come out with a major redesign of their vacuum, simply because Kirby is following a similar pattern to their 1970-1990 releases. Sentria- Heritage II Sentria II- Legend II

    Anyone here a "gamer"?

    I'm a big Arma 2 fan, but I also love JRPGs. Lately, I've been playing a lot of Persona 4 Golden on the Vita. I'v only had the game for about 3 weeks, but I've already put about 30 hours into it.

    Sebo X2 from a different pespective

    I put a GoPro camera on my Sebo X2. Probably one of the cooler videos I've made.

    Oreck Age

    Another Oreck question. How do I fix the XL21's handle release? The vacuum offers no resistance if the upper section is pushed down or up.

    Windsor Versamatic 18

    I've got a Sebo X2, basically a domestic Windsor, and it is probably one of the most easily serviceable vacuums in my collection.

    DFW Riccar 8900 for $50

    While I'm not selling it, I'd heartily recommend this vacuum to anyone in need of a vacuum that can deep clean carpet or hard floors. http://dallas.craigslist.org/mdf/hsh/3734113198.html

    Celebratory Celebrity Find!

    Where did you get that neon Hoover sign? I'd love something like that for my room.

    The best above floor cleaner?

    I think the all in one upright or canister is more popular than an upright/ canister combo because it seems more convenient. With the upright/ canister, you have to go through the house twice, while with the all in one vacuums you can clean everything as soon as you see it.

    Oreck Age

    Thanks for the help. I wonder why they didn't put the XL21 online earlier?

    Oreck Age

    The earliest record of the XL21 on their website is 2005. If you want to check, you can go on the wayback archive. I'll post a link to it. http://web.archive.org/web/20051001000000*/oreck.com

    Oreck Age

    I've got two Orecks that I need to find the age, a 2600 and an XL21. The XL21 has a Date stamp of 03329, and the 2600 has a 5 digit code (which I'm assuming is the date) of 00082. A post in the archives said that the first two digits were the year and the last 3 were the day the vacuum was made...
