Stopped at Goodwill the other day for a quick look and found this still sealed Kenmore Power mate sitting on the shelf for $5. Always a happy day when this stuff shows up.

You can catch a brief glimpse of the 1983 Kenmores at .24 in this commercial

Just dragging out old pictures. Never see many of these Samsung vacs around. This is a great vacuum clone of a Miele in everyway but the shape of the body. It's powerful and quiet with the sliding power switch just like on my Miele either side of the two buttons. Even better though is it's tiny...

Here's a pic of my Kirby Classic Omega that I'm half thinking of selling sometime in the future. The pic doesn't do it justice, it's in beautiful condition, there's a light layer of dust I should have removed and the hose and attachments are boxed away. I'm just not sure that I want to part...

Found this the other day at the local Habitat Restore.. It's a Canadian made model 118. Haven't tried it out yet nor given it a clean, plenty of cobwebs underneath and a lot of the brush bristles are long gone.. anyways.. what year do you figure,, mid to late 40's? Wonder also abut that big...

Okay I gave in today and did a little thrift storing and found this delightful little Prince II with all the attachments and storage tray. Looks like the hose is a replacement as well as the cord but she runs nice and the machine body is in very good condition, nary a scratch or scrape and no...

My 1st Miele; I found this Miele Allervac today at the Habitat Restore and while a little more than I would normally pay and also that I said NO MORE VACS I had to take it. It's in remarkably nice condition unlike the black one they had their last month. It came with the power nozzle and the...

After saying NO MORE VACS how could I not take this pretty thing home with me. This one was in waaaay too nice a condition to leave at the Restore. Barely a scuff or scratch, not stinky either. And it's the TWO speed model..

I was poking thru the junk bins at the downtown Sally Ann and happened upon this old Air-Way moth spray... Called the Whirl away

The other day Tom posted a Lewty nozzle giveaway. I don't have any Lewyts, just bags. So Monday I'm driving home from the grocery store and spot a console stereo at someones curb for trash so of course I stop.. I get out and sitting there is another two faves of mine.. An old Remington Office...

This is almost too strange and it's not the only one in the last couple of days. Charlie W's posting about his Airway in another thread and Dave chimes in with questions about his Airway 55 canisters etc. This morning I go to the Habitat Restore and what do I find. An Airway 55 in remarkably...

But I wasn't listening and wasn't going to leave this nice Panasonic Jet Flo canister languishing all alone when I can clean it up and play with it.. Not that I have much carpet left but some. Just needs a good wash and a new nozzle belt. I like the pushbuttons on top which remind me of Chads...

Because he just picked up his latest vintage vacuum yesterday. Have a guess what it is if you haven't been told already. All will be revealed later.

Found this little gem on the shelves of the Restore this morning. I almost walked right on by. The label says made for Aerostat Industries Vac'n Blo by Metropolitan Vacuum Co NY.. Metro still sells this little vac new in stainless steel, this ones orange painted steel. No sure who Aerostat was...

I'm not sure when it was made so I'm putting it here. I was waiting for another one to show up since I gave my other one away before the big move of 06

I placed a wanted ad on our local Freecycle website asking for any old vacs and got a response within a day or two. Was told they had 3 old vacs in their garage so off I went and got an old FQ in bad shape, an Eatons (Eureka princess) in absolutely unsalvagable condition, and this lovely Eatonia...

Yikes I was in Goodwill and this Kirby was sitting there with some attachments etc no price on it so I asked how much. $3 and off I went. In remarkably clean condition I did give it a little wipe before the picture and it needed a new belt which I put on. Also needs a new light which I'm outta...

Somebody gave me this orange floating Celebrity today and it needs a little work. First the handle needs reattaching, no problem, but whatever piece fits inside to attach the bag to is missing.. anyone got a picture of what I'm looking for.. Also on the outside lid is a screw sticking thru near...

Well actually I saw this last week but decided to go get it because I did need that hose and the bag on mine the top plastic holder is broken. This Omega has a beautiful bag but is missing the front brushroll head. It must have got left behind at the estate sale the guy got it from. He's gonna...
