    Lowrey Prestige Organ...

    Hi Gary - Yes - I loved playing all the different models, but a lot of the tones, rhythms and effects did sound the same between all of them... Mine new (to me) baby is being delivered tomorrow at sometime between 1:30 & 2:00, so I am going to take half a day off and meet them at the house...

    Lowrey Prestige Organ...

    Hi All, First to Gary… Thank you so much for all your input and responses to all my questions… I ended up not looking at the Rhapsody in Delaware… While It LOOKED pristine, I was concerned that since it had not been played in many, many, many years, that there would be dirty contacts from...

    My Extensive Collection Part 6

    Dan - Do you have the selector switch on the handle in one of the two carpet modes, and not on the hard floor mode? I am sure you do, but it never hurts to ask - I am also sure you already know he handle has to be reclined for the brush to spin… I am sorry that you had an issue out of the...

    Lowrey Prestige Organ...

    Hi Gary - Thank you once again for all your information… One thing you said blew me away…. You mentioned that you only paid slightly more then my dealer is asking for this one now, when you purchased yours brand new… Was that AFTER the trade in value of the other organs, or was that selling...

    Shark Rotator Powered Lift Away NV652 Pictures

    While it is true that many canisters have a mini electric power power nozzle for stairs and furniture, I think this shark is the first one in a long time to offer this in an upright… I think at one time there was a kenmore upright with and electric hose and electric mini power nozzle, but that...

    Lowrey Prestige Organ...

    Hi Gary, Thank you so much for all your feedback, especially on the pricing… There are quite a few Prestiges for sale right now, and the prices vary from $5999.99 to $16,900… The problem for me is that most of them are in TX, CA, or the Ohio Valley in PA - I am not worried so much about the...

    Lowrey Prestige Organ...

    Hi Kenkart… I know this is not a new Lowrey… I think the Prestige was from 2008 or 2009 - As I said, $62,000 for a new one is out of the question… This appears to have many of the same features of a new one - The good part is someone else has taken the hit on the depreciation… Dan

    Shark Rotator Powered Lift Away NV652 Pictures

    It has a 7-year warranty on it - I have to say that my initial impression is that it seems to be very well made… Only time will tell, but I will give it a work out - I love the idea of an Electric Mini Pet Brush - I really wanted it for that a reason - That and the lift away will make doing...

    Lowrey Prestige Organ...

    OK - This is a simple question… Does anyone have a more recent Lowrey organ… I would like opinions on them - Looking at a Prestige or a newer versions of the same style model… I have my Hammond T-582C that my parents purchased for me New in 1973 - I was 7-years old at the time… The Organ still...

    Rug Doctor Portable Spot Cleaner

    I have to tell you that it does a really great Job - If you pull off the recovery tank, the suction at the port is amazing - I may to to open it up just to see what type of motor is in this thing - Rugs are completely dry after only a couple of hours - and the Vibrating brush is great as...

    Another new Shark Vacuum hit the shelves

    I was back at Walmart just to see if they put one out on display yet - Nope - But I did Scan one for the price - $298.00 - I think the price is a little high for Walmart - At that price it may have the same fate as the Dyson did, which was pulled from the shelves and put on clearance for lack...

    My New Daily Driver….

    DesertTortoise… No - The crevice tool worked fine on the corners of both the tile floor in the bathrooms, and the wood floor in the kitchen - Did equally as well on the joints between the carpet and the baseboards… The canister has enough suction to overcome the loss from the little side vent...

    My New Daily Driver….

    DesertTortoise… The large "DeepClean" power nozzle does not have a fitting on the back to allow it to store on the vacuum, but to be honest it does not need one… The power nozzle has a very hefty weight to it - Not to heavy to make it difficult to use, but enough heft so that it makes no...

    DesertTortoise - The link you provided to Electrolux is the same basic vacuum - Mine is an Ultra Active Deep Clean as well - Just in purple and black - They sell it is a few different colors for the different retailers… The one I puchased (EL4305AZ) differs only in color and in that it includes...
