What about the purple or is it green Hoover preferred it's not an Elite but more like a clean air designed Windtunnel.

  Had to do some major scrolling. Anyway, I agree Elites were not the best from Hoover. I still see quite a few in the wild. So, the survival rate seems to be pretty good. I personally like them and have a few in my collection. It's mainly due to the fact that I'm 37 and these were popular...

Are you serious?

Hoover Office Machine Cleaner I knew Hoover made those thicker bags to go with its Office Machine Cleaner. Had one of our employees spill copier toner all over the carpet one time. It was a mess! I had one myself that came with those thicker bags. I didn't know that MW made bags for their...

Thank you for the pamphlets. I like their advertising. Yes, I do believe mine is the MVU3. It looks very similar. The ID tag must have rubbed or fallen off because I can’t find it. I just greased both bearings in it and it sounds great! It’s solidly built and heavy which is a good thing! I...

I have a rather well used example of a commercial Mr. Vac. That I bought at an estate sale closing of a former bookstore a couple years ago. I also have some documentation if I can find it. Yes, I do believe these were made by Singer.

When I had mine. I just shoved an Electrolux C bag on the inlet. Bags sometimes appear on eBay. So, you might check there! With the TriVac being a clone of the Regina Electric Broom I wasn't too impressed with it! I gave both of mine away!!!!

Looks like the vacuums came from the Allen county shop posted on here several years ago. I was there after the owner had passed. Nice to see a woman who appreciates them.

I just put a new belt on a ladies machine from work. I used a singer twin fan belt. A dial a matic belt may work as well.

There are several videos on YouTube on dissembling the canister. Have you tired viewing one? Maybe the motor isn’t aligned with the bag compartment or something. Have you tried the troubleshooting steps mentioned above?

I know collectors say these are rare! My question is how rare? Several years ago, another collector and I purchased two of these for $100.00 new in box with the help from another club member in the VCCC.

I heard the same thing. I thought what! Then Dana mentioned his tractor or some other piece of farm equipment as well. I can't remember what she said after that.

I seem to remember a metal clip that supported the housing. Near the belt area. Some of my Quadraflexs have it while others do not. It could have fallen out on those too!

Sounds like the metal belt guard that goes over the plastic post. 24 in the pic.

Those G3s have the reputation of getting dirty and dingy especially in smoking households. Looks like dirt/grime to me. I don’t think it’s a heritage II bumper the red is off and the nozzle corners are more rounded on the heritage IIs.

Well said Maytag142c. I agree as well!

What about roof salesmen? I just had a roof salesman come into my house and quote me a price on a new roof. Most salesmen want to talk to you inside the home. It’s not just vacuum salesmen who want to enter your home is the point I’m trying to make. What about exterminators, repairman etc.

I wonder if Meghan Markle owns a Sovereign. Mostly likely NOT!
