You can take apart the fan, then vacuum or wash the fan cage. But if you're gonna wash it let the fan cage dry before using. Is it one of those cylinder fans?

I still have my Shop Vac Hang Up that I bought in 2018. It still makes that grinding noise whenever I turn it on. What could be going on with it? It doesn't make that bearing noise anymore so I don't need to lube it.

Those "Powerfins" look like they would do nothing to the carpet. Seriously, Shark?

Didn't know Sunbeam made vacuums.

Never seen a Rotto before. To EurekaFanSquid, What was going on that Carpet Cleaner thread. Was someone onb your Vacuumland Account?

I don't understand. Is this a pun or something? Other than that I have a Steamvac from 2005.

Does anyone else think Hoover's Windtunnel Twin Chamber and Dirt Devil's Reaction D2 looked a little similar?

You're right they're actually making the Powerdash Pet in the USA. I just read the serial date wrong because I learned to read serial dates on Bissell.

Correction Made in September 2005.

Decided to pull out my Steamvac today to do the bigroom in my house. This was one of the last Made in US of A units. According to the serial date on this unit, it was made in May 2009.

I know that these suffered from reliability issues, therefore alot didn't survive and got thrown away. Other than that, great finds.

Guessing these had "preferred" in their names because alot of people preferred Hoover's Windtunnel Vacuums at the time.

Think the Twin Chamber Preferred Windtunnel had a teflon filter in it. I also think the Preferred Canister and Self Propelled had hepa bags. Don't know if the Preferred Dual V came with that bag chamber.

No, not referring to those elites, though I did see a Preferred Elite at one of my Goodwills. I'm about talking the Windtunnels that had "Preferred" in their names along with the Windtunnel Name. They'd usually be silver in color.

I do like Maytag Hoovers. But I think my Hoover Rewind (2016) does just as good as my Maytag Hoover Empower.

Here's some pictures. Sorry it took so long.

I still have my Empower. Just replaced the filter in it today and swapped the original nylon brushroll with my Widepath Tempo's CWP brushroll a few days ago. Anyways, has the Fold Away finished being restored, kirbyklekter? I'll Upload some pictures later...

I'm thinking the schematic on the left in the 3rd picture is a concept for the Fold Away.

I'm thinking about swapping the brushrolls from my Widepath Tempo and my Empower.. I just feel like talking about Maytag Hoovers from this era.

I thought the V.C.C.C was an event, sorry about that.
