Hello Vacuumland, today I've bought an Electrolux model Ze62 fromGumtree for $60, which I thought was reasonable. I believe it's from between 1957 and 1959. Can anybody help me date this? One major thing I need help on is the hose, it's taped up near the handle grip, but apart from that it's...

Hi guys, I have just published a website dedicated to my hobby. This was created using Weebly, and I had spent around 6 months constructing this website. This site shows info on most of the vacs I have collected as well as my backgroud story on why I collect and a way to contact me. Enjoy...

Today I have a National MC-622 from the 1980s. I believe this was the budget vacuum cleaner of the time with the MC-663 being the TOL. I also understand that Hoover sold their Dial-a-Matic/Convertible/Dynamatic design to National (now Panasonic), and modified the original DAM design for their...

I've got a Hoover Concept One U4001-006 from around 1978 or 1979 that I picked up last Saturday off Gumtree.

Today I have a Turbopower 3 model U2880-006 I bought off Gumtree dating from 1997, with the user manual, a spare filter and belt. I understand the Turbopower 3 was first released in 1994 as the TOL model with a powerful 1000W motor, and a longer hose that could reach a full flight of stairs...

Hi, I am just wandering if a Hoover Turbopower 3 is a collectable vacuum cleaner even though not that old? Thanks

Hi Vacuumland, I have received a Hoover Dustette Model 100 today that I won off Ebay last week. I got the highest bid of $51.00, which I thought was a reasonable price considering it's the rare version, in the box with the instruction manual. It looked like it had barely been used and...

Hi Vacuumland, today I have a 1974 Hoover Convertible U4008 I bought off Ebay. It was made in Australia at the Meadowbank factory and was released as the moderate-priced Hoover upright cleaner, above the low-priced Lark 1346a and below the TOL Dynamatic 1125a. The colour scheme is Sun Gold. I...

Hi, Vacuumland I am currently working on a two-tone grey Hoover 652A. I was wondering if these following parts need replacing:

Hi Vacuumland, I have a Sanyo Model S10 cylinder/canister vacuum I bought from a co-op shop in Sydney's Inner West area. I'm guessing this model is from the 1980s judging by the colour. Can anybody tell me what year in the '80s? Serial no. 20495. Not Hoover, which is my favourite, but still...

Hi Vacuumland, I have here a Hoover Junior/Lark 1335A plus the box of attachments, leaflet and bags; the whole lot I bought off Gumtree today. The vacuum was working and in great condition when I picked it up. Can anybody tell me how to determine the year on this model? I believe this vacuum is...

I have here a Hoover Model 652A that I have bought from a recycle shop in Sydney. I just need to get a sandblaster to strip the paint off the metal base and repaint it, get rid of the scuff marks on the hood, get a new light bulb for the headlight and give it a general clean. I will post the...
