However before Axel had gotten into the vacuum industry he was in the gas lamp industry, it all started one day when he spotted the cleaner in a window, I believe it was a Volta if I can recall, it was big and heavy and his Lux model 1 although similar in design was lighter in weight 18Kg (to...

Oh that’s right! Because I work in a rainbow office doing all of the repairs I know nothing, and because Tom owns a vac shop he knows Nothing either... why bother asking for info when you can just pick up the phone and call RAINVAC. They don’t even have a rexair account anymore. I service...

Chris... It’s actually funny you mention the VTX750, I just sold one that had a seized motor to a guy in Ohio, he bought one at a swap meet and needed the parts from the one I had to complete his. They are a great bike when running, almost like a Harley except more reliable. I myself had a...

We highly advised against removing the fan as those fans ARE NOT meant to come off. Well at this point hopefully your JB weld holds up

I have owned 3 blazers and continue to love the comfort GM offers in a vehicle, I got rid of my 01 blazer last August for a ford E-150 (long story and im out a lot of money). I do own a 2008 Lincoln MKZ AWD sedan that is still in rather excellent condition, a 2010 Jeep Compass that refuses to...

Kelton I don't know if you got the humor out of Les's post but he was joking. I got it right away and kind of chuckled. Yes, Tom and Chris are correct though, I have a feeling that they get their cords from the same manufacturer that Aerus obtains theirs from, because if you look at the upright...

I would recommend a hoover steam vac, rug doctor, Bissell Big green either 90's tub version or the new "Commercial" version... There's so much out there just explore the options and see what suits you.

What will cause the carpets to get dirty faster is using the Kirby method, the soap doesn’t come out of the carpet and it leaves an oily/sticky/filmy residue that will cause dirt to stick to it. I’d go with the rainbow because you are using an extraction method which does suck the dirt and...

Tekjunkie... how could you say that about generic filters? I have used them for years and had no issues. Hepa is hepa and granted there may be different grades of Hepa, generic Hepa filters I find filter just as good as the OEM, The filter that was in question still has quite a bit of life left...

I tend to favor the bissell Big Green. Powerful, multiple uses, and they get the job done. I managed to find a NIB one from ‘93 on FB market place a couple of years ago and 2 weeks before that, a NIB little green from 93’ both are dated and I’ll keep them new. Now I did find a new/used once...

They look great!

I’m actually a rainbow service tech... If the rainbow has been heavily used depending on use the carbons could need to be replaced depending on length. These were very well known to have motors go. Just make sure to check the length before putting it back together that way you can see if they...

The fan is pressed on and should not be removed. The one thing about these is that they were meant to have carbons replaced and they were meant to be cleaned. Not rebuilt. You can pry it off by using 2 flat bladed drivers but run the risk of not being able to get it back on. Are the bearings bad...

Rob: AMEN!!!

RegularRett69 Yes welcome, this is definitely not a common thing to happen here and please enjoy all you can learn @huskyvacs- this is not something that is personal, this is something that happened between 2 groups of collectors and how some can’t let go of the past when the past should be...

You’re going to love your new to you eureka! There are F&G HEPA bags available for it and also you can convert it to the ST bag if you prefer. I have a few of these machines as well as a few other models of Eureka and feel that these have really good cleaning ability. Some people prefer Hoover...

John: Some of us have tried to take this to private messages, but you keep blocking when someone brings up something you don’t agree with Or like. I’m sorry but things that were in the past should stay there. I’ll continue to say that. You need to realize that you seem obsessed with trying to...

back on topic... yes, Tom I do agree that it nice to sell such a quality cleaner. at least parts are easy to obtain and they are interchangeable with lux parts. The quality is also about as good as Aerus quality!

Jason Huber... NO ONE in this thread mentioned Jason Huber, why on earth would you mention Jason in a thread having nothing to do with that manky mess. Unless there is something you know that we don't? like having your eyes on the inside of OUR PRIVATE group.

John, may I call you John? I hate to burp your bag today, but YOU are the one who CREATED THIS MESS and NOW you want to run away!!!! Why do you feel entitled to the luxury of stoking this dumpster fire without getting burned?! If you cannot handle the heat from the "ovens" then step out of the...
