So, Over on www.automaticwasher.org , there was a thread concerning the old Frigidaire factory, and that it was slated for demolition. I mean it has not been used in a few years by G.M. and has recently, being empty been the victim of a fire. It made me want to find vacuum cleaner factories...

Miele Art........... EVAN!!!! Great deal on that Art. Like it was stated above, that was the worlds most expensive electric broom. Personally I'm really not a fan, but that's becasue I had to sell those darned things the first time around. And they weren't popular in our market at all. I had...

Does your Apex have a model name or number? Hi Bernie, Yes I believe that like the Vactric Model that Jack Copp so awesomely found a catalog picture of, and poted here on the forum above, was called the AirFlo here in the US as well. But that would unfortunatly coincide with General Electric...

lovely ballroom carpet...... Ah Mike, Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. LOL! years ago I was the "assistant head housekeeper" for Holiday Inn in Lansing Michigan. Keeping those carpets like the ballroom carpet that we played on was NOT fun. You wouldn't believe how much dirt those weaves...

Apex in action!!!! Hi Jack, What a wonderful gesture. I forget that you recorded so many wonderful moments while you were over here visiting...and vacuuming. I have wondered if it was available elsewhere. Meaning ovrseas. I believe that Doug's AWESOME site shows the Canadian built version...

old coffee-can motor Kenmore Bernie.... WOW!!!! That machine is awesome. I've never seen a Kenmore that old that is still in running condition. I mean you see the "Bug eye" models, but never ones like this. They are usually beyond salvage or just don't exsist. Glad to see another...

(((((((((((((((((BLUSH))))))))))))))))))))))))))) Nothing... I was uh......NOTHING...lmao. Seriously I got mad at it, becasue it wouldn't come on, so I tossed, (actually threw it) across the room, and it somehow ended up under my bed. That's what I get for buying cheap shtuff! And some...

Kirby in blue.... I heard this really funny story from I don't remember who that stated that Kirby HATED the Tradition series becasue of the blue color. Aparantly this goes against the color used for a Cleveland sports outfit, that's green or red or something. Am I totally off on this? Do I...

So, during a recent clean out of the bedroom, and moving the bed, I found under the headboard area my old digital camera, which was so bad I had to buy my newer Kodak model. BUT...Inside were some pictures that I took during my restoration of the Apex upright that I brought with me to the 2008...

Local Michigan thrift stores ........yeesh!!! Nothing in the Pete, It has been super dry down here by west Detroit recently. I went both last Thursday and this Monday and diddn't find a thing of worth or value. I split up the run I usually go on mentioned in an earlier post. I have some to do...

Why this sticks out in my mind but..... Wasn't the hostesses name on the infomercial for the "original" BIG Green Clean Machine Mary Ellen Pinkerton? She was on there with that "all-purpose" infomercial guy, whose been in like 7 other infomercials also. His name escapes me....??? She used to...

A few requests.... Hi Everyone, And thank you all who posted. As you can see by the pictures within, this canister is missing a floor and wall brush and a crevice tool. These attachments are the earlier deep choclate brown color, and not the later grey, which for whatever reason is the only...

It's a puzzlement indeed I'm unsure of which TTI person I conversated with, but both the blonde lady an the dark haired dude that were there from the company, told us (myself and Kyle Krichbaum amongst others) that the main reason that the Windtunnel Canisters were held in production was...
