    I have the butterscotch? one. Killer vacuum! Self propelled. It has a very thick bag and doesn't "spew" any dust to speak of. Would anyone like it?

    Found a $5 Filter Queen

    floor tool Edgar! Don't forget to check out the original floor tool. It is amazing! You have to have the old style wand for it to work or the curved extension for the straight wand you already have. It works very well and you don't have to use the powerhead all the time. Several on ebay right...

    Hoover 115 part/gasket needed

    Can any of you Hoover experts (I mean that sincerely) guide me on a "gasket" that goes between the machine and the collar on the bag? And if it does not use a gasket, WHAT goes there? I have two of these machines now and both belch dust out the fitting at the bottom of the bag. I have rigged it...

    Hoover Quik-Broom

    Enjoy! Human! Glad you are enjoying it. I have had several, but none that were as strong as that one. In fact, I am missing it right now for cleaning up the kitchen!!! I have a tan one that looks a lot more sophisticated (no insult intended) but the design is cleaner and the floor tool is much...

    Eureka Gold Crown

    Suggestions for hose replacement? Thanks Guys!!! I appreciate all the information. I was born in '58 so it looks very familiar to me. Any suggestions on "re-hosing" (sic?) the hose? The machine end is plastic over the insert and this seems very delicate. Any help much appreciated.

    Eureka Gold Crown

    Just thought I would share a pic of my newest vacuum. This was a gift from a friend in Nashville TN recently. Neither he or I knew of the significance of this model #906. Has all the attachments except for the rug tool. Hose is shot. Still trying to figure out how to get the old one to come off...

    Selling a few Vacuums

    shipping I am quoting 40$ as it will go in two boxes. If it is anymore, I will absorb it. I just shipped a much heavier machine in two boxes and it was 48$ from the west of Georgia. Hope this helps.

    Hi all! We are having some remodeling done at our house and I am losing some storage. I would like to offer several vacuum cleaners to Vacuumland readers first, in hopes they will find their forever home. If they are not sold, they will be donated to a local animal charity that rescues abused...

    1948 Youngstown Kitchen found and installed

    Apologies if this has been posted already. This is a fascinating story of a complete 1948 kitchen found in storage, un-boxed and intact. Eventually sold to a Ohio museum, it was returned from California and installed in a special exhibit. I thought this would be relevant with our interest in...

    Rainbows from the 50s Pictures please

    Model C common? I have seen several for sale lately, so I would say yes. This model is a 1950 I believe, so its life could have lasted into the sixties or seventies for a very thrifty and careful owner. It has good suction, great tools and does a good job. Adequate as someone recently told me...
