    New Kenmore Elite upright

    I reviewed this vac a while back, right after I got it I am updating it now. The hose is impossible to work with. I called Sears and asked if they made a reach=out hose for this machine. They said no. I told them how it constantly tips over with the least amount of stress on the hose usually...

    I finally finished my Citation Hoover Restoration!!!!!!

    Citation I never met a Citation in real life. Did they have a 2 speed motor? With the side converter did they have better tool suction then the Convertible? Chan

    Kitchenaid Mixers

    K/A I have a purple Artisan. Love it. But, I still use my Sunbeam more. I like the 2 different bowls, and I grew up with a Sunbeam. The one I use the most is 40 years old and going strong. Too bad they don't make them like that anymore. I sound like my parents!

    Kenmore Elite Upright

    I just got my new Consumers Guide and they did vacs again. The new top upright is the Kenmore Elite. I bought one. IT was out of the box and I got it for 206.00. A steal. It is loaded and very powerful. The most powerful vac I have ever used! My only complaint is the hose. IT tips over the...

    Hoover agitator

    What Would You Have Bought?

    Hoover has CHANGED their round Convertible belts!!

    belts I bought these at a vac store where they all just hang on a hook, so I suppose they must be generic. I think I will order some online from Hoover. Thanks for the tips. Dave, you really keep your belts in the fridge next to your carrots?

    AVF-26 g.e. vacuum

    GE What didn't Consumer's like about this vac? I grew up with a similar version, and it did have mucho problems. The attachments fit on the front and you must remove the belt each time.They were friction fit,and always came apart when in use. First the hose would pull off the adapter, then the...
