    Filter Queen Shampoo system

    Hi everyone, been a hot minute since I posted. Does anyone remember the Filter Queen shampoo system from the 80s/90s era? I can't remember what it was called. Only thing I remember is it came in a triangular shaped box with a blue hose and could be used with the Majestic. I have no idea how it...

    Allergy Free Deluxe Filter Vac???? Never heard of this

    Obviously it's a royal power tank from the early 2000s but I have never heard of one private labeled allergy free. The woman I got this from at a garage sale said that she bought this from an allergy clinic and paid $400 for it.

    Preco nozzle trivia

    Let's play a little game here because I'm curious to know the answers myself. I want to know what all names did Preco put on their turbo nozzles? I have seen Preco, Singer, and Signature. I know they sold with other brands like Rainbow but I don't recall seeing other names on them. For example...

    Question about 70s Royal power team canisters

    So which Royal model was the first to adapt the big metal power nozzle? Was it the Pony (tank) or the canister (swivel top)? Just curious. I am guessing the swivel top version.

    Hello all, I was in Tulsa a couple weeks ago aat a mini meet and Chad told me of this Airway down there on Let-go. I bought it of course.

    Royal 801

    Hello all, During my last trip to St. Louis last year I bought a red Royal 801. I am looking for the correct era motor for it as this thing is as loud as an 80s/90s model. I don't know much about them but I'm pretty sure this one shouldn't be this loud. How would I tell if it had a motor...

    My new Quantum vacuum

    OK I got it yesterday. Wow that was fast. I'm very pleased with it. Very strong suction and airflow. The attachments are actually not bad. Most new vacuums today have piss poor attachments so it's nice to see this cheaper vacuum has good attachments. It's very well made and heavy. I like that...

    Found a wildcat

    I found a wildcat at a vac shop recently. It was in the spare parts room in a corner covored in dust. It had a tag on it saying store display model. I guess this place had been a fantom dealer and kept that one as a demo. Anyhow it's not hardly been used. Still has that new plastic smell when...
