I added a motor filter to my Silverado,It was very clean when I got it and had a Genuine Lux bag in it,I have lots of Genuine bags but they are old and I thought why not add a filter just in case one does break open,I used some window air conditioner filter material on hand,it is washable...

Most canisters and cleanair uprights have some sort of filter,here is the A/C electostatic filter, avaliable at most home improvement stores.

"I was working at the vac shop today" Well not today it was 1979, I was 14 and doing all the repairs for the Kirby dealer in town,I don't think a grown man could have survived on that pay, but I sure made a lot on the trade- ins that I bought from the stupid salesmen.

"The generations have a nasty habit of blowing leaves away from the left side of the machine", Maybe you should rake before vacuuming. LOL

I used my G3 the other day and the bag was partially full (about 3 or 4 uses)so I tossed it out, Yesterday I needed a vac with a hose and the Sharp was handy so I put a new bag in so I'll use it the rest of the month,I never use the same machine that often, I only use my Bissel bagless to vacuum...

Nice Finds Nice Koblenz, I like the blue finish, I have the Kenmore version in chrome,it's kinda pitted from being in the garage, I use it when I get a few spots on the carpet that won't come out with just resolve and elbow grease,these do a great job,I go back over the area with the Bissell...

I found this at Goodwill for 15.00, It was still there after a couple of visits so I decided to check it out and was expecting it to say made in china but instead it says made in Sweden, it sounds about the same as an Electrolux, anyone have any info on this machine? I checked out Eureka.com and...

Sumbeam Hi Dave, That looks like a real heavy duty twin fan upright,I remember that 70's mod bag on the Kenmores of that era, That hood looks unique,it is taller like the latter one but but has the casting on the metal base like the first low hood models,rare find.

Hi James, I'll watch for your e-mail
