Dircik, I hope you are just kidding "...not worthy" Sorry for the delay, I had a busy weekend. Well yes, most of the machines shown there DO have a working life history, some rare ones seem to have been bought NIB (and for a FILTHY amount of money, I guess). But rest assured: This museum has...

I feel tricked (or let's say being pulled my leg) While the refurbishing job might be tremendous and marvelous overall (nice new blue trims and fantastic polishing job!), I still feel like reading these typical auto-generated Google listings: "search = John Doe" result: "Looking for "John...

PS: I posted the same thread over at Automaticwasher.org see there.

Please join me on my visit today: I went to "TECHNOSEUM" (technology museum of Mannheim) to the special exhibition "the electric household". Unfortunately, I discovered this only yesterday while it will end on Sunday. So I hopped in the car to see it! Here is the original link...

Such a sweet treat: Just recently I grabbed a cheap no-brand shower gel at one of ACH SO MANY "Tedi" 1-Euro shops here, only to discover that "Real Nature Lavender Anti Stress" just smells like Odorific II (the original Kirby scent). Really, no difference! I caught myself thinking whether my...

pretty nice - got one myself hey Seamus, great find. Some time back I got one myself (former colour scheme, older original power brush) http://www.vacuumland.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?18851 and meanwhile I could gather some experience with it. It is a very good vacuum and very sturdy...

never encountered any issues Shake-N-Vac: No issues. Was used with: Vorwerks VK 117, 119, 240, TKG1, Tiger 250 Kirby G4, G5, G6 Siemens super 1600 Lux D770 and Z325 Glade: No issues. Was used with AEG Vampyrette K, Vampyr TK 4000 S, TK 700, Hoover Ranger and Junior Dirtsearcher On the other...

Have a look at this thing: The Piccolo by Electro-As. It was very common here, I still remember having seen some of them in action when I was a kid. You can still see parts of it being sold on fleamarkets here...

Michelle, I LOOOOVE your pic Is that you? I hope it is! Adorable, could cuddle your cheeks all day long. This face plus the chain saw message! That makes my day. :-))) Joe

If we had time travel... Gee, Robert, Thanks for making this video. I've been following the Premier thread all along. But MAN, this machine is a BEAST! That is some serious suction rush and the beater bar sounds really no-nonsense. I wonder what people back then would say if they could meet us...

This is one beautiful machine I just love that metal eagle plate and logo. Does it have a revolving brushroll? Adorable, that horizontal round blower casing. A beauty! Got any videos of it? It's a gem anyhow. (Rare that I comment on brands that I have no knowledge of, but this one is worth a...

aluminum foil and Coke use the foil as a rag and coke as the cleaner. Works like a charm, especially on chromed stuff.

Gosh, I've tried the salad for Easter now: Amazing! And it got my whole family drooling for more. This recipe is more than astounding. Personally I would never have thought of a strawberry / spinach combination. Guys, you have to make this, yummy! Thanks Charles for sharing. Unbelieveable...

I just love this thread ;-) Been following it for some while, just as I have been observing Juniors for quite some while. But just recently I got myself my own Junior Dirtsearcher 1334 (is it?) in blue and white with a headlight in the front cover. Some childhood "being home" feeling is...

hi all, how can I disassemble a Lux woven hose? (Euro style, so no inner wiring) Yes, I have used the search here and on youtube as well, I have read all available leak repair instructions with rubber and plastic and pour-in and sliding a foil thingy along the hose etc. etc. Perhaps I missed...

loud can be peaceful, shril can be nerve-wrecking This thread is highly entertaining (speaking of how one person perceives the same vacuum a different way than another). For my own vacs I found the loudest: - Hoover Celebrity single speed UFO (and unpleasant) - Siemens B series standard...

A shame indeed, I agree with you That is right, they do not update very often. Too bad, as their canister "Air belt" is a very fancy and logical concept to me. I had the chance to use a borrowed one for a day and I was very pleased. The Felix however was not too much to my liking. (I used it...

good you mention it, thanks. Indeed, SEBO vacs are sold in specialised vacuum shops only over here. The average consumer does not even know them to exist as a brand (apart for some freaks like me). Let alone that they had derived out of a former Vorwerk competition thing. The only thing that...

indeed surprising What is most interesting for me is the fact that most people are angry about the noise. Apparently "turbo scream" does not mean "turbo action" anymore (hello Kirby, can you get that? *wink*) Glad to know that I am an average picker-up compared to what goes around worldwide...

Europe should keep its filthy fingers out of things... ...they do not fully understand. There is a saying here in Germany: "if you cannot succeed in local politics, go nationwide" (Today it can be altered to "if you cannot succeed in nationwide politics, go Europe" Which is true for most part...
