But... Is it as good as the original Electrolux? AKA Aerus.

This Eureka... Is a 1425B. I will probably buy my Sanitaire a new motor, and put the old motor into this machine. I will also be getting it a Vibragroomer II, and probably a new fan.

My dad picked this up for me today for only $5.09. I clean it up tomorrow afternoon. More pictures to come. Does anyone know what model this is? I forgot to look.

I'd like to know when my model 70 was made too, please.

I wouldn't even take a "REAL" Dyson if somebody gave it to me!

He's a sophomore... A wise fool. A sophisticated moron.

I got a Convertible model 70 at a thrift store a few years ago for around ten dollars. I have a video of it on my Youtube channel-TheUniversalDave1. It's pretty scratched up. I plan to eventually repaint it and polish the hood.

An amp is a measure of current, not power. To find power, multiply Volts x Current (Amps) x Power Factor= Power (Watts). Loads that have a higher power factor have a lower current, which is what you want. Less current means less strain on the household wiring= Fewer house fires. IMHO, a vacuum...

Nice Sanitaire! I wish somebody would just "toss" one my way. That's definitely worth fixing up. http://www.sanitairevacuumsales.com/index.htm

Kirby Sentria I got my Sentria last summer at the Goodwill for $15, and I love it. I spent a great deal polishing it up just before the Convention.

VGIII strips Where did you get those? I'm entertaining thoughts of getting some for my Sanitaire since we have old matted down shag. The VGII beater bar does an outstanding job on it, but I want more.

The Sanitaire is back home Safe and Sound A week and two days ago, I ordered a new hood for my Sanitaire. They called me today, and this afternoon, I went to collect the hood. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the hood had not yet been out of the plastic. I also took the original brushroll...

I really don't understand how soaking the bag in WD40 will help. Could somebody enlighten me?

I forgot to mention... I tried to explain the basics of air movement, but he kept saying that the chance of him making a mistake is 0% because he's been doing this for 34 years. After about 17 seconds of that, he said and I quote, "well I'm just not going to argue with you. I've been doing this...

Me and the jerk running the vac shop went round and round. I called him right after I got out of skool, and he said he had ordered the plastic hood and that I could pick it and the Sanitaire at the same time. I wanted the Sanitaire NOW. We made the trip across town, and after some arguing, I got...

Didn't they teach you in school? Credit cards are bad!

The House of Vacuums called me today... The guy said it would cost 23.05 for a new hood and a new belt. I guess that's not too bad. I will probably be going to pick up the machine on Wednesday. The guy said he would put the parts on for free, but I want to do it myself. I'll still have to buy a...

HOW NOT TO OBTAIN VACUUM PARTS Hey kids, read this short story of this stupid idiot 20 years ago that trusted an unknown vac shop with his new Sanitaire!

Well I -DID- go in there because I wanted parts. I thought they would be cheaper to obtain because there would be no shipping cost. If I had known that all this would turn into The Great Sanitaire Fiasco of 2014, I would have ordered parts of the Internet.

The Great Sanitaire Fiasco of 2014 I went there Friday afternoon to find that my dad had banned me from entering the store. I guess he thought I would cause some sort of trouble. He went in there and apparently the guy told him that he had already ordered the parts for the machine. I'm supposed...
