    FilterQueen Curiosity

    Not Your Mothers Filter Queen I grew up with a straight suction FIlter Queen as a kid. My parents still have it. When they moved I was using it and got all nostalgic and found a good deal on a newer Majestic thinking it would be awesome. Hate it! It gets referred to by my husband as the...

    Which vacuums could you live without?

    What in the?

    I have never seen a Filter Queen with a selection dial and what appears to be no power switch. Anyone have any info on this? It’s on EBay with little info. I couldn’t get the link to work.

    Central Vacuum Inlets

    Thanks, I thought I was on the right track but just wanted some validation. The unit was in the garage so no need to vent outside. They left nothing behind so I don’t know what was here originally. It has its own circuit. Most homes in the neighborhood have central vacs. The neighbor has a...

    Central Vacuum Inlets

    Hey Guys! The house we bought had a central vacuum but the previous owners took it out. I’m not familiar with theses at all. I’m leaning towards a Modern Day. Seeing all these useless inlets is driving me nuts. Are these dual voltage inlets, meaning I could use a hose with the direct fit...

    Filter Queen Dirt container Gasket

    Looks like filterqueenspecialties.com has them. There are a couple dirt containers on eBay too, that you could get the gasket off of, but they are a little pricey. http://www.filterqueenspecialties.com/Dirt-Container-New-Style-Gasket-All-Filter-Queen's

    Moving-Calling all Local or Nearby Collectors

    Thank You Thanks everyone for your interest, and especially to Jae for coming over and taking these machines off my hands. It was a complete relief to have them gone and I am happy that I was able to pass along some dream machines. Shipping turned out to be a hassle with the fast sale of our...
