I will no longer be collecting vacuum cleaners because I have plenty of them already. I did my final vacuum replacement, and this is my complete collection that will not change. I will never get rid of any of these uprights or the hand vacuums, because they were all very hard to find and...

I picked up my brand new old stock Sanitaire SC886 Vacuum. I am so happy I did not have to buy a Clarke Reliavac to get the traditional Sanitaire motor, or even worse, a Perfect. However, though it is brand new in the box and has never been taken out, it has some deficits. 1. Some scratches...

This is what I bought off ebay that will replace the Hoover Convertible. It is a Sanitaire SC886. Is this a Type A? It says it's Type E, but this looks like a Type A to me. I just paid $250 for it.

What are the differences between the Sanitaire SC886 and SC888? I'm still waiting on the seller to respond, but if there is no response, I may go with an SC888. What are the differences? Also, I'm curious. When did Sanitaire start making both models? Also, has there ever been an SC886 with a...

Well, the life of my Rare Montgomery Ward Vacuum Bag gave out today when I had to force the zipper out. I still have the bag. I am going to go all over town seeing if it can be fixed, since it is cloth and not vinyl. One place told me to bring it by, which I plan to. So now my Montgomery Ward...

So here is what is going on. I know back in June, I mentioned how I wanted a Hoover Dial a Matic. When I was about to buy it, I found out someone else bought it before me. Anyways, I decided to wait until the Fall Semester which is now to do my final vacuum replacement. I don't want a vintage...

Hello all. As much as I like vacuum cleaners, I'm going to be selling part of my collection. Reason for this is because I am running out of space, due to the amount of vacuum cleaners I have in my room. The 3 rare uprights I have will stay. The Hoover Convertible is going along with all except 2...

This will be the final vacuum replacement. For the past year, since last summer, I've been thinking about replacing my Hoover Convertible U4403. Reason being is that the bag was replaced, it is super loud, and I do not like it as much. I will NOT ever replace my other 3 machines. Reason being is...

Does this cord and plug look original?

These are all of my Vacuum Cleaners as of June 9th, 2015. I use all of my uprights. All of my Metal Hand Vacuums are all showcase models, since each of them have an issue and can not be used for daily cleaning. My Sears Dustbuster is also a showcase model too, as it barely picks up anything and...

Does anyone have an extra gasket? It's that circle ring that goes inside the bag in a metal hand vacuum to hold the bag in position. My blue Montgomery Ward hand vacuum's bag is missing the gasket which is why it is so wobbly.

I have a Montgomery Ward Hand Vacuum. Not sure the model number, but it is pinkish and white with a brown bag. I purchased this machine off ebay last Fall and it does not work at all. I have been super busy, so I was not able to take it to the vacuum shop until now. I did get my full refund...

Is this hand vacuum from the 90s? The box screams out 1990s. This model seems more rare than a model 103 or a model 500.

How long will it take for my new dustbuster to charge? It does not turn on and when I put it in the charger, it did not turn on while charging. Now I am worried I got scammed. Then again, you guys did warn me that the battery would be old and not working. I got it to pick up the hairs in the...

How old is this New Old Stock Dustbuster I will be buying? It's a Sears Dustbuster. I am thinking Early 80s.

I do plan to get an updated video once I do some improvements to this machine. I may or may not buy a Vibra Groomer Brush. This brush does an equal job, so I might not. I also need to buy a new bulb for the light, as well as find a tailor who can fix the zipper on the bag. This bag is too...

This is my completed Upright Vacuum Cleaner Collection. I have 4 uprights now. I do not have space in my closet anymore for any kind of upright. The Wards completed my collection. My Final Upright Collection as follows: Hoover Convertible U4403 from 1984 Eureka Commercial Vacuum from 1974...

This is my new Montgomery Ward Upright Vacuum Cleaner made by Eureka. The model number is SP-824A. I am a little disappointed about the bag. The zipper is not working well and there are missing metal tracks. I had big time buyers remorse, since this is what I've always wanted. All original...

Tomorrow, I should be getting my Montgomery Wards I got off ebay, well not really off ebay. I talked to the user and offered a price that he could not refuse. I ordered it a week ago, and it will finally be here tomorrow. I am not sure if I may have time tomorrow to pick it up. If not tomorrow...

I am curious to know which year this Kent was made in. It has a 70s looking Eureka Style hood, but a 6 height position adjuster. When did Eureka start making vacuums with 6 height adjustments? I would think 80s, but it does not have vents, so I think maybe mid 70s.
