    Hoover Concept I in Mint Green

    Yeah I love it so far! All it needed was a good spa treatment. It even came with a new belt installed!!

    Hoover Concept I in Mint Green

    I'm not sure if the handle is a replacement or not, I've asked several people and they said that it varied model to model and it could have come with a black one or a green one. I will say that this black one has obviously been on there for while because it shows signs of wear. But I also know...

    The VERY LAST MINUTE of Christmas!

    That's very impressive John! I wish I could say the same actually but no such luck lol. And I don't have any seasonal shower curtains but I'll have to keep that in mind for next year!!

    The VERY LAST MINUTE of Christmas!

    I completely agree again John lol I also have enough linen tablecloths, napkins, & chair covers to deck out a ballroom lol. I think Jackie also used to gorge herself on martinis and Newport 100s as well but I also drink, smoke and "gorge myself on beautiful things" of all sorts so I can't say...

    Hoover Concept I in Mint Green

    All Cleaned Up It took a pretty long while, but I finally got it nice and clean. I just love the way this vacuum cleans. And yes, it's the exact same colour as the Decade 80.

    The VERY LAST MINUTE of Christmas!

    John, I completely agree! I doubt I have as much of it as you do though. And even if it was "showing off", who cares?! What's the point of having nice things if you don't use them?! My house has also been called a museum but I take that as a compliment lol.

    Hoover Concept I in Mint Green

    I found this Concept at a thrift shop a few days ago and picked it up. It was very dirty and completely clogged up with cat hair. Now that I've cleaned it up it runs like new though. It seems to be in relatively good condition too except for the battle scars on the hood. I don't have much...

    Hoover Legacy & Hoover Quik-Broom II Habitat Restore Finds

    I really wish they had kept using the Quadraflex too. I feel like it definitely does a better job. Also, notice how it says "Self-Propelled" instead of "POWER DRIVE".

    Hoover Legacy & Hoover Quik-Broom II Habitat Restore Finds

    S_Matt37, That Concept 1 is from 1992, one of the very last made. It was either a K-Mart or Sears exclusive. The funny thing about that one is that it doesn't have the Quadraflex agitator. It's a pretty decent cleaner though.

    Hoover Legacy & Hoover Quik-Broom II Habitat Restore Finds

    That would be awesome John!😊 I'd love to see pics of some of the rugs too, you have a beautiful home as I've seen from pics in verious threads. As far as I know, the rugs I've inherited have only been cleaned with Hoovers as well. My family has always been a Hoover family (on both sides! Lol)...

    Thank you all!!! S_Matt37, I can't believe I found it either, especially at ReStore of all places lol. Human, I love that Quik-Broom, I have another one in navy blue too. The red one is going to a dear friend that has been looking for it for a while. GottahaveaHoover, thank you so much, that...

    Just some stuff about Hoovers mainly

    I have the 730!!!;) This is one of my favourite Elite-styled machines and the I've probably put the most work into. It runs like new now though.

    Hoover Legacy & Hoover Quik-Broom II Habitat Restore Finds

    I most certainly S_Matt37!!! And yes, It is a Legacy 730. I have the hose and all of the tools as well. It's an excellent cleaner and I love the colour scheme, sooo '80s lol. Other than the motor being wrecked (I put in a new Elite motor) it's in amazing condition!

    My Awesome Find

    I have the U3341 I just got it out of storage to play with a bit. I'd love to know a little more about it if anyone has any input. One thing that's interesting is it does not have a Quadraflex Agitator, the one it has looks similar but only has 2 rows instead of 4. Also, it does not have cord...

    The VERY LAST MINUTE of Christmas!

    Even if everything isn't up, It still looks pretty great! Love all of the antique furniture, the Lenox (I have the same pattern!), and that fruit wreath is beautiful!
