    Modern Day Installed

    Hey Guys, It’s been a couple of weeks but I had the MD installed. LOVE IT. I don’t know how I went this many years without one. Now that we both work from home and with the two new fur babies, I can actually vacuum without disturbing anyone and the puppies freaking out. Cannot get over the...

    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

    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...

    Miele Blizzard CX1

    Hey Guys, Just received my Miele Blizzard and wanted to share a few pics and observations. Great looking machine. It came with the SEB 228 Electro Plus and the Parquet brush. The hose does not seem as stiff as a regular Miele. Interesting that it came with a dusting brush, but there is no...

    Really?

    Was so going to buy this until I realized the bag was on backwards so I couldn't justify the $375. Hope I don't get outbid at $222. Weed is legal in Colorado now, guess they visited from Missouri. http://https//www.ebay.com/itm/182278303924

    Simplicity 7350 Help

    Hey Guys! I have my Grandmothers Simplicity 7350 but I have been having issues with it. It can handle short pile carpets, but even with a brand new belt, it chokes on longer pile carpets to the point the Brushroll stops turning and the belt gets hot. I don't want to immediately buy a new...

    Kirby Sentria Stiff Brushroll

    Not only Kirbys but most new vacuum cleaners these days seem to have some pretty aggressive brushes, which leads me to think they could really do some damage to carpet fibers. Although my Mieles have the same issue I have been cautious on using my Sentria on the new carpet. Anyone have any...

    Finally...My Collection

    Hi Guys! Finally in the new house after having everything in storage for a year while this place was built. It is a little crazy now so everything is piled in the corner. I have the hoses, wands and power nozzles packed up, along with my Rainbow and all the Kirby accessories. I will post...

    Kenmore Variable Speed Upright

    I find it is difficult to find Kenmore uprights from the 70's and especially the 80's. Found this jem on Craigslist. I don't remember seeing these vacuums back in the day. The lady I bought it from stated she got it in the 70's, but it seems to strike me more of the 80's genre.

    General Electric Upright Model P6U5 Info??

    Hey All, longtime follower, but my first post to the forum. I just acquired this General Electric upright, but don't know a lot about them. It is in really good shape a side from normal wear and tear. She needs a new belt, any suggestions on what current belts on the market will work? Posted...
