    The Dual Sanitronic 50 or The Dual Sanitronic 80?

    "Power of watts.and ohms,and amps..." The Sanitronic VII draws the same amps (4) as the D50,but the D50 uses 5 amps. on high speed,that's why the D50 says 5 amps. on its plate.I also loved the gold trim belt lifter and everything else mentioned here.

    The Dual Sanitronic 50 or The Dual Sanitronic 80?

    Alright everyone,which is your favorite,the D50 or the D80?I love 'em both,but the D50 has the edge,I'd say.It is the only Kirby ever with that lighted logo,the oval Kirby symbols completely cover the bag vs. the spaced apart logos on the D80,and was the last Kirby with the all metal more...

    The Brady's Electrolux

    a look back at the Brady vac I remember this episode,and the machine was probably a Metropolitan-rebuilt Electrolux due to the matching cord halo.The Bradys were using a Hoover Convertible to vacuum Greg's attic room in the billie goat as mascot episode.As with many sitcoms,different vacs show...

    This is to all Oreck fans...

    The heavyweight lightweight the XL21 is far and away the very BEST Oreck ever made,I promise you that, with up to 76% deeper carpet cleaning,over 50% more airflow due to a 33% larger fan and a much stiffer roller brush.It is much quieter than the other Orecks,has a 21 year warranty with 21 free...

    ORECK UPRIGHT

    Kirby - Large vs. Small

    power of ohms and watts and amps Classics were 4.5 amp. carpet,and 6 amp. hose. When used alot with the hose,they often "fried out",so the Heritage dropped to 5.5 amp. with the hose to save the armature.

    Does anybody use their Kirbys to shampoo carpets?

    foam,foam on the range I don't know if they make it anymore,but Bissell Wall-to-Wall shampoo for foaming shampooers was suprisingly very good,as well as commercial foaming shampoos that state that they dry to a "crisp" non-sticky residue that vacuums away when dry,such as Von Scraeder dry-foam...
