There seems to be a variety of cleaners for dollhouse collectors on the market. Mostly cheap examples unfortunately. Are there any rare ones out there?? I have one and am not sure if any others were made as it is artisan made.

Hi guys. I am very happy that an old friend came back to me the other day. I let a collector of vintage items have it 2 years ago when he came to pick up an old radio I had. Boy did I regret this later on that day. I was in process of moving and thought that it might be better off with...

Hi all. Just thought I would share this with you. I have wanted this model for ages. First restyle of junior range since 1950. This scheme is white & rose. Bag can be rare nowadays. Takes paper bags inside. First junior model to have this feature. A few colour changes made till another...

Hi all. Probably obvious but not looked at one before. Just got this today. These were fitted with supressors back in the day. I have watched a few videos and have come to the conclusion that this one has already had it removed. I hope. Can someone please verify this for me. Cheers.

Hi all Uk vac enthusiasts. I hope all had a great new year. I am wanting my 375 to look more like it should this year. I will be going for a black & white look this year. I would like to know if any one here has a white ribbed cord lying around they would possibly like to sell. Probably a...

Hi everyone. My post war 375 seems a bit different. I always thought the tools for the 370,375 and 119 were interchangeable. I just tried to put a 119 adaptor on and it will not clip in place. Maybe someone can enlighten me on this. I have included photos. I must say I have never seen this...

Hi All, I guess this lock down is causing deep pocket syndrome. A seemingly good Hoover polisher is reaching stratospheric heights on ebay U.K at the moment. I must say one does not see the original boxes for these very often if ever so that might be a factor. A few great examples of...

Hello. I am looking to buy a motor for the 375. I thought to try here in the hopes someone can help. I would buy another 375 on ebay but would rather not buy another whole unit. Hopefully a U.K collector can help. The listing had sad it was in working order but I guess most people cannot...

Hello all, I know most vacs from 60s-80s have suppressors fitted for radio and TV interference protection which unfortunately after many years tended to explode and ruin a once nice machine. I am more cosmetic than mechanic minded so would like to know if the pre 60s models like the 119 and...

Hello U.K collectors. I would like to buy a tool set for the Hoover Junior 119. I bought one off of ebay. The seller sent it by DPD and they did not attempt the first delivery. A company called parcelcompare emailed telling me they require a £22 invoice to be paid before they can deliver...

Hello. I have seen a few of these on ebay in the past. I am looking for one like this with the green badge for my beloved Lux Z62. I have seen green,blue and black ones. I am sure this is black but not sure as it could use a clean. If anyone can help, please let me know. Cheers, Gary.

I was responding to a post in contemporary section and got me thinking and I thought to myself, How long will these modern vacuums last?? Not just mechanically but physically?? I do love to watch old reruns of star trek next generation which is in 24th century and looked over at my lux 62 and...

I just got this and thought I would share with all. Will be arriving in post in next few days. Not entirely sure when this was made but I think early 50s.

Hi UK collectors. I purchased on ebay a few weeks ago a LUX Z80. I live in a studio flat and have decided there is nowhere to store it without it getting the way. To save putting it online I was wondering if any of you would like possibly buy it for your collection? If you want to see...

Hi all, I want to ask if anyone here in the U.K has a white crevice tool for the Z80 lux model? Willing to pay for it and shipping. Please let me know if you can help. Many Thanks.
