Selling this Epic 6500SR. really dont use it anymore and don't have the extra space in this house. Took it in on trade a few years ago when I was still selling and servicing vacuums, so it got a thorough cleaning then, used probably 5 times since. Exhaust filter dated 2017, that was when it was...

A few weeks ago, our first lady of vacuums, Miss Tania Voigt, called me about a vacuum on facebook marketplace about an hour north of me in Lyons, IL Well I picked it up a few days later...and indeed she was right, it is a fine example of a practically unused C-2 Revalation! The seller bought...

Well as some of you who have me on the facebook are aware there was an incident in my truck this past week involving a can of Dr. Pepper exploding all over my backseat. I did not have any rags with me, so I wiped up the floor when I got home and grumbled that I would clean up later. Well I...

A few years back, Ken Wagman gave me one of the "jar" sprayers to complete my Electrolux LX. I really never used it, but I am wondering, can I use it to spray the shampoo water mix I use in my B8 shampooed in it? I would love to shampoo the seats in my pickup, they are showing their age...

A friend of mine in the Vacuum Business referred me to a longtime shop in the area, to pick through. After a nice, long visit with the owner, he started filling up bins with things for me to "Haul outta this place!"     Starting off, we have a machine I've wanted for some time, a Hoover...

I had meant to post these sooner, but thanks to Work, this is the soonest I could post.....   On Memorial day, I took a 2 hour road trip to Capron, Illinois to see Ken Wagman. We had a beautiful visit, with Ken showing me his Gorgeous collection, had a nice visit, and Ken made us lunch...

Here we have my Electrolux B-8 Floor and Carpet Beautifier. My grandmother purchased this new sometime around 1970 from Conrad, our Friendly Electrolux Man. She used it 1 or 2 times a year. With (6 at the time) 8 kids, and a house to run she had her hands full! But she always made sure the...
