    Upright Vacuums with Separate Hand Vacuum Attached??

    Hi Guys! I just posted on “Vintage” about something I found while “googling” prices for 1986... The Kirby Split Second Hand Vacuum that was attached on a bracket to the Kirby Heritage 2. My question for the “Contemporary” thread is this: Can anyone name and provide pictures of ANY upright...

    Kirby Split Second 1 & 2 pics and Questions

    Hi everybody! I have only posted on the “Contemporary” thread as my entire vacuum collection (250 vacuums) are all models made within the last few years. But I found this by chance while googling something totally unrelated to vacuums. (Price of things in 1986) Now I’ve only owned two Kirby’s...

    Hi Guys, Here in Mansfield, we have a few stores that allow you to try out the vacuum cleaners before you buy. The Royal Touch is a small mom and pop that sells Fuller Brush, older but brand new Shark vacuums, a few Panasonic and then a mixture of older, used but refurbed that he’s taken in on...

    New to Dirt Devil.. a Wet/Dry Vacuum

    @huskyvacs Yes.. I agree and that’s the main reason I got it. I have it right by my chair in the living room and since I’m a bit clumsy, I can grab it immediately to suck up spilled iced tea or soda. Then I just get the Carpet Cleaner out to remove (hopefully) the stain part of the spill. Our...

    Hoover Platinum Collection bagged upright # UH30010

    @luxkid1980 Hi Jason, I have indeed owned two of these vacuums. I gave the first set (Upright and Canister) to my Uncle when he moved into a new condo with all carpeting. But afterward I felt I missed it too much, so I bought a new one last year. I love this vacuum and agree with you on all...

    What upright is this?

    @fan-of-fans Hi Cole, What most vacuum companies do when using a rival companies vacuum, they disguise it or cover over the name plate. It definitely is a Hoover Platinum Bagless Upright, it looks as though someone making this Sears commercial spray painted the majority of the Hoover black...

    HELP with Electrolux Aerus Identification

    Thanks guys! Sadly the seller had already sold this vacuum and didn’t know how to mark it “Sold” so I missed out! The worst part is he had NO clue how great of a vacuum it was and sold it for $50 bucks! 😳 So thank you all for your help identifying the Electrolux Renaissance. Patrick
