Hi all, I've just taken delivery of a Nilfisk Extreme here, and wondered if anyone has any experience of them? They are highly rated by many consumer magazines here- I was surprised by the size and weight of the cleaner when it arrived though. Was expecting a unit quite similar to a Miele S5...

Hello all, Just wanted to share a recent ebay purchase, and ask for a few tips from anyone out there familiar with servicing these cleaners. Am I correct in thinking this is the second 60's style Junior cleaner after the rose/white model? The overall condition isn't bad, with matching grey...

Hi everyone, I never normally post anything, but this youtube clip caught my eye, from the VDTA convention. Just wondering if anyone has ever seen one of these vacuums before, or knows who makes them? Seems quite strange to me, I'd guess it's a commercial unit due to the orange cord, but...

Hi everyone, Just found a vac listed under the vintage category on ebay (see link) Just wondering, has anyone ever seen one of these before? I'm curious about it, I think there were companies in the UK that rebuilt popular cleaners like the Hoover Juniors and then sold them on (it's all a bit...
