I purchased a Filter Queen Triple Crown on ebay.  All in pretty good condition, except it is missing the Black Dirt Container gasket.   I attempted to purchase one from several online sellers, EZ-Vacuum, Amazon, Filter queen direct,  and get NLA.   I am surprised since this gasket should...

I broke the clip on the Sirena vacuum hose.  This is the part that latches onto the vacuum.    Does anyone know if you can repair the hose end, or will I need to replace the entire hose.  It seems like a big expense $94.90, to replace an obviously weak part.  Just hoping the clip can be...

I just saw a banner on EZ vacuum.com  "Introducing the Titan Vacuum" Looking at them they have a smell of a Tacony product.  Anyone know who makes the Titan? https://www.ezvacuum.com/vacuum-cleaners-c-8/titan-vacuum-cleaners.html

Officers respond to a burglary call with their guns drawn only to find a trapped Roomba   Sometimes things aren't always what they seem. Take the case of a "burglary in progress" call in Oregon. Sheriff's deputies in Washington County received a 911 call Monday from a woman who said...

I was bidding on a Hoover Portable 3013 on ebay. Pretty little green, totally compete. It had a buy it now, but I thought there had been no interest so I gave a bid for the starting price of $50. It sat at $50 for six days. On the last day, Wednesday, I upped my bid, just in case to $75.77...

At least when it comes to mechanical things, or something to do with life, or vacuums. One of the supervisors here was vacuuming her office prior to a meeting. The office has a Bissell Powerforce, bagged. Said supervisor didn't think it was picking up very well, so she asks her assistant...

Yesterday afternoon I was just getting home from work when I saw the new neighbor across the street come home as well. She unloaded a box with a new Shark Vacuum from the back of her SUV. Later I was waiting outside for my daughter's school bus when I see said neighbor on the porch with her...

Hoover REACT Powered Reach Premier Bagless Upright Vacuum UH73550PC I don't like bagless machines, but on a whim, I ordered it New Year's eve. One should not drink and shop. I used the React for 34 minutes last night according to the app. I forgot to mention that this vacuum comes with an...

I just recently acquired a Sebo C3.1 with a ET1 power nozzle.  I got it for a song compared to the prices of Sebos on ebay.  The listing said Nozzle needed a belt.  It didn't.    The belt is in fine condition, however, the power nozzle is non working.  It does give me a light when it is in...

If never used, it wasn't stored very well. Wheels are scuffed, badly oxidized.    Still think the dude be on crack if he thinks he's getting $1,499 for it.    If the seller is one of the members here, sorry to judge your crack habits.  ...

I recently won two commercial Royal Everlast on EBay. One a a Royal 886 the other a Stark branded Royal RY8800. The 8800 has a broken fan. Question: Does all the Metal Royals take the same fan? I have seen some insane prices from $39 - $75. All are nine blade aluminum. Are these all the...

I was trolling ebay, when I came upon a listing for an Oreck XL Dave Oreck signature edition. The listing said "for repair, wife said she smelled something burning, and just bought a new vacuum." "It had been a good vacuum, I hope someone can repair it, it's very clean." It was very clean...

Sometimes I can't help myself, especially when it's a great buy. Prolux 6000, mfg 9/13. It was new but not in the original box. New package of bags still had the owners manual. MSRP $799, is what it says you can buy them on the internet all day for $219 - $399. This one was freight damaged...

I have been accused of being only Kirby, which isn't true as I have many more of other makes than I do Kirby. Kirby just happens to be my first love so I was happy to have found this Heritage II, Legend for $59.99 o. eBay. All of the attachments are there except the turbo group. The rug...

I drove down East Central a few weeks ago and noticed the Kirby office was closed. I just did a search on the Kirby.com website and it confirmed that Kirby of Wichita is gone. This is the first time that I know of in at least 65 years that there isn't a Kirby distributor in Wichita. I am...

I was just reading that the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) was threatening to give Tacony a spanking.  Luckily they closed the investigation without action, after Tacony's agreement to make some changes to Social media, Advertising, and packaging.     [this post was last edited...

This is not a thread to rant about an E-bay purchase, as I have always had a good experience with my purchases.   I bought a Lux Ultra Upright U160A last week for a good price $20.50, shipping was outrageous $41.99, but hey I got it cheap.   Unfortunately the seller shipped the machine...

I hope I can sneek them in when they get here.    The first one is a Hoover SH40070 Multi Floor Canister w/power head.  I started a bid of $30 on Karensbarn ebay store and I got bumped a couple of times,  I decided that I would go $70, as can buy from Hoover Factory Outlet for $149.  I got...

I was just wondering about the Lewyt in today's P.O.D. It struck me that this Lewyt bore a resemblance to Filter Queen. What capture system did the Lewyt use. Were they bagged, or a filter in the tub type?

Last night I changed the bag in my Lux GP for the first time. The Light hadn't came on yet, but I just felt like changing, as it was almost full." I am using the white, cloth bags. Anyway, I also checked the HEPA behind the bag and it was clean. So for giggles I pulled the Long Life HEPA...
