I just acquired my dream machine, a wireless vacuette! Well, technically it's a kwik kleen but pretty much the same thing. My question is, how do i lubricate it? The bearings are noisy, I unscrewed the cap over the end of the shaft and there appeared to be oil in it? I thought these took...

I recently received a deluxe canned ham Eureka. I need bags and a few other things for it. From what I understand this is supposed to take L bags, and they are apparently impossible to find the correct ones. I need bags, a motor filter, the bag gasket and hopefully the extension wands because...

I just got an old royal from ebay and it needs the standard belt and brush roll. I believe it is either a 2.8 or 3 amp motor and has a single row sleeve bearing brush roll. Needs belt and brush, no prob right? Wrong. I went online and found that all the plentiful parts for Very old royals are...

I recently received this regina electrikbroom from an older lady and I noticed the nozzle angle isn't right. in order for the pivot to work correctly the machine has to be facing almost backwards, but not quite. At first I thought the fan cover was on wrong but the screw pattern only allows it...

I recently got a hoover convertible and a Royal commercial upright. Ironically, both machine's model numbers are 1030. The Hoover was very dirty and the hood was broken and spray painted. The Royal's bag had a few tiny holes that I patched and also needed a good polish. Luckily, some helpful...

I went to change the bag on the hoover convertible I just got, and noticed the bag was zip-tied on. Does anybody have the spring that you roll over the paper collar to hold the bag on?

I just this hoover convertible from my friend. Its dirty, but otherwise good shape except for the good which has been painted white and has a hole in it. can somebody help me find a replacement?

I purchased a Royal commercial Upright model 1030. The shake out bag has 3 tiny holes in a group. I was wondering if anybody had one they were looking to sell? I dont want generic and I really dont like the orange ones and would like to keep the original look. Either that or could somebody give...

Im looking for a royal 9100 preferred collection. if anybody is looking to sell one please let me know

Who here has used a Scott & Fetzer Wireless Vac-u-ette? I'm quite curious on how well they actually work? I have only seen one video and it didnt show it cleaning. I want one really bad but if it doesnt work very well I really dont want to spend that kind of money. Pics and VIDEO would be awesome!

I dont know anything about it or if it even works. I threw $1.04 at it and won haha. free shipping even. I didnt really want it but for $1 I figured what the heck, never thought I'd actually win it. Heres a link...

Here are a few videos of some of my vintage cleaners for those who are interested. For Ben, heres a video of my Stark Deluxe 880

Today I got these 4 old vacuums off craigslist for a total of $10. I have a Kirby Classic, a kirby model R? serial 68053, a eureka model G from 1933, and a Cleveland suction cleaner from the 20's I believe. The classic and the model G work fine. The eureka needed a belt because the old one was...

What do you guys think is the quietest vacuum of any age? upright and canisters, preferrably with p/n

Checked out the thrift stores today and found this. Its a Kenmore Whispertone Canister, 4.8 amps. I came with the power nozzle and all the attachments. I'm not much of a canister guy but its so quiet I had to have it, especially with the p/n. There was a 80's eureka canister at another thrift...

I picked this up at a thrift shop for $3 today. Its a Regina ElectrikBroom 3 speed. The motor was a bit dry when I bought it so I tore it apart and lubed it. Seems to work OK. I get the feeling if I washed the cloth bag it would have alot more suction. Does anybody know how to remove the bag...

I decided to pick up some mothers polish and give my old royal some love. Before 1

I just won the Stark branded royal 880 off ebay. I have a few questions for you guys who are familiar with 880s. First off, where can I find a headlight bulb for it? Also, how much more powerful are the 4.5 amp motors compared to say my 3 amp 801? I payed $20 + s&h, did I pay too much? Either...

Does anybody know where you can buy air freshener crystals for a Royal metal upright? Its the kind that goes in the chamber under the headlight.
