another recent find... A Hoover Convertible U 4089. I've never seen this one with this bag before.

My Uncle called me last month and said he found "an old Hoover" and wanted to know if I wanted it. He sent it over with his sister, my Aunt, when the San Diego cousins came over for my Dad's surprise birthday party. He described the vacuum as rectangle shaped and the tools went inside it. I...

Orecks in PS Strolled through our Target today and saw the Orecks of topic. There was also the new Electrolux upright and the Bissell/Vax/Bosch vacuum. The red Eureka canister/PN has been at our Target for months now. Last year they had the Eureka Air Extreme canister/PN for the same price...

Scott I bought that blue model 1489A new in the 80's, I want to say 85 or 86. I bought it new at McMahan's furniture store while on my lunch hour when I worked for the Riverside county health system. I was so excited! I brought it back to the clinic, put it together and vacuumed the...

Hoover Porta Power Tyler, Nice collection there. I especially love the Hoover Porta Power labeled as an Office Machine Cleaner! I like the colors, very different. Does it have a cloth bag or does it take paper N bags? Marty

A rescue!! Fred, I'm so happy you saved the Sani-way! A great looking vacuum. Marty

picture Here is the picture. It's smaller than I remember but has a full description on how to use it.

De Mother Hi Fred, The reginarator is like Kirby's crystalator. It fits in front of an older Regina upright and the hose gets hooked up where the bag goes (to act as a blower). Moth crystals go inside the reginarator. I have an owners manual with a picture of it. I'll post it soon. Marty

PS I like your house! It has a 1164 Morning Glory Circle feel to it! ;-) Marty

Mini-van.... Well Morgan, since the seats were already out of the mini-van, a nice air mattress provides Rick with plenty of comfort inside the van while his family sleeps warm and snuggly inside the house! Rick and Terry! What an undertaking! You have a great plan there. Sounds fair and...

Clueless in California Rick, I'm confused. Are these machines for sale? Is this the collection that was for sale on ebay? This is part of Hans (Hi Hans!)Craig's collection? I see some things I have in my collection. Sorry, I'm catching up on life outside of school now that thats done. Marty

Louis This model looks to be in the same color scheme as the Marquis which came out in 1987 I believe. In our conversation I was under the impression that the hose was a vinyl wrapped leaky hose. This hose should be okay and provide good suction. Maybe this was the model the Electrolux guy...

Bag Nathaniel, The bag should be the same color as the hood and the bumper. The bag in your picture looks tan to me. If it is, the origial yellow one must have been replaced along the way. Marty

I found a picture!!!! From an old issue of the newsletter. BTW, "The Black Eye" aired in 1953.

Rick This vacuum looks just like Lucy Ricardo's Westinghouse featured in the episode, "The Black Eye." After seeing Lucy's black eye the previous night, Ethel comes over to see Lucy to find out how she really got the black eye. Lucy is vacuuming. She stops vacuuming to give Ethel the "real...

The wheely thing... Does it even go with the vacuum? If you stand the vacuum on its end vertically, does it seat well into it? So the vacuum can balance on stairs. Maybe it goes to a blue Eureka polisher. Goes with the shampoo brushes. Sunbeam and Shetland had wheel assemblies that were used...

Eureka models I found this in a back issue of the newsletter. Eureka sure made alot of models.

Learn something new everyday! It really is true what they say. You can learn something new everyday. I learned there were different versions of the Golden J just as there were different versions of the 1205. KirbyKid, thanks for clearing up my confusion about the Saniway box and spray jar...

Great Job Phillip!!! I have this vacuum as well! I call it the "Guacamole Vacuum" As you said, this vacum still has the metal base under the full hood and it still has the rear tool conversion! From looking at the first picture, I can't believe how dirty the bumper was and how clean and white...
