    Bissell Shampoo Master

    I have the British version of this. Mine is called a Bex Bissell :) it's duck egg blue and in suprisingly good condition to say it spent most of it's life at the bottom of my dad's friend's garden! of course, that's how I acquired it in the first place :P the handle pole has rusty spots on it...

    Unorthodox 516 Done!!!

    Well... I think it looks beautiful! I love to see it when people do this! My problem with collecting Kirbys is that I've seen pretty much all of them, so I know what I'm looking out for, whereas with Numatic for example, I'm always surprised to find new cleaners that I've never heard of before...

    What's your favorite Hoover Constellation color?

    For British... my favourite without a doubt is the grey and white model and I love the senior and junior that go with it. I also like the jade/aqua coloured connie, I am proud to say that I own one considering they are reasonably rare. Mine is in a horrible state at the moment as a few years...

    What is the most unusual vintage commercial vacuum cleaner?

    Kirby commercials what about the commercial kirby models? comvac, janitronic etc... I love those vacs, but then, I always have had a thing for commercial vacuums. I suppose it comes from when I was little and I would see big exciting vacuums in shops, vacuums that you couldn't find in the argos...

Kirbys are fine vacs though, infact, one of...
