Sandy: Thanks for that thought! I kind of wondered if older bags might be prone to failure. I think I'll stop using the older bags that I have and start using new bags exclusively. Thanks again! Bill

I have kind of a dumb question. I have a variety of Electrolux bags that I've gotten from various places, some of which date to the 60s I think (not real sure). I use some of them from time to time. However, should I just put them up for safe keeping? In other words, are they collectible...

Description Changed Looks like he discovered the error. He's updated the description. Bill

Drain Unclogger Yep! It does an excellent job on unclogging drains! I've used it for that. I've tried it as a scalp massager too. Not good. My dogs hate it as well. They won't tolerate it. Funny thing though -- my big dog will let me vacuum him off with my Hoover WindTunnel. But both dogs run...

Visual Timeline Has Hoover or anyone else ever produced a visual timeline of Hoover models over the years. Aerus has one for Electrolux. Would be interesting to see. Bill

I have a hose. I have a G-3 hose in excellent shape. I'd be glad to let it go for $5 plus shipping. It's just sitting around and I don't need it. Just let me know. Bill

Excellent Vac I have one of these. Excellent vacuum. Hard to beat on carpet. EurekaPrince is right about the hose. There's too much suction when using the accessory hose. But all-in-all, a very good vacuum! Bill

There is a company in Germany that's been doing something similar with Kirby modifications. I stumbled upon their website one time. Don't remember the company name. Bill

Has anyone ever seen used one of these conversion kits? Looks like an ugly duckling! Bill http://www.affordablevac.com/

Can someone identify what this model Electrolux is? It looks an AE but has the power nozzle outlet like an AF? Thanks! Bill http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Electrolux-Model-E-Vacuum-Cleaner-Power-Nozzle_W0QQitemZ180322820275QQihZ008QQcategoryZ115993QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Found It Again on Amazon Is Vax a part of the same corporation that owns Hoover and Royal? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/images/B001JAGYLY/ref=dp_image_0?ie=UTF8&n=284507&s=kitchen

Saw this on Ebay. Does anyone know anything about it? I didn't see this product on Hoover's website. Thanks! Bill http://cgi.ebay.com/Hoover-S3825-Vacuum-Cleaner-Elite-Bagless-Cyclonic_W0QQitemZ350155964352QQihZ022QQcategoryZ20615QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Hmmm! That actually looks more like a Bissel or Eureka to me. Doesn't seem to have the typical Hoover look. But I guess everything at Hoover is changing. I stop by Good Will occasionally. I never seem to find anything in there. I guess it's just hit and miss! Bill

What a drift! What a drift! That's all I have to say! LOL! And I just thought something was wrong with the vacuum! Bill

Dog hair likes to cling to the outside of my Hoover WindTunnel. I've never had that problem with my other vacuums (Kirby & Electrolux). Could the problem be due to static electricity or something else? Any thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks! Bill

Has anyone seen one of these. I couldn't find it on the Hoover website. Thanks! Bill...

Great History Lesson Thanks for the history lesson! I was an advertising major in college, so I've always been interested in marketing channels, re-branding, etc. Bill

Manufacturer? Who was manufacturing this generation of vacuums for Sears? Thanks! Bill

Talk about over full! So did the vac get in that condition because someone never bothered to change the bag? Bill

Fine Tuning Adjustment Joe, I looked and didn't see any way to fine tune the adjustment. I think my problem is due to a combination of things. 1) As someone indicated, the standard brush roll is too stiff for the "berber" type carpet. I've noticed that Kirby makes a special brush roll. But my...
