My vacuum collecting bug has pretty much sat dormant for 2.5 years so about 3 weeks ago the bug bit again and I started looking for something new to add to my collection! I ended up settling on a Panasonic Performance Plus Platinum upright (MC-UG583).......... .........THEN One thing led to...

I spent my afternoon with a friend going to a couple resale shops in town. We ended up at this place called Tom's Treasure Chest and he has a pretty large warehouse in back and that's where I found my latest (old) toy. A Hoover Concept One. Powerdrive model. It was covered in some filth, tested...

The correct wand for my new Queen showed up. So I finally got some photo's. The airflow on the Queen is insane! keep it away from your face it might suck your brains out! I put a new cone in and then vacuumed the room where the photo of the Queen was taken and after vacuuming it I looked in...

who is it made by? and where is it made? The newer style motor is in my brand new SC688 that I got for christmas but there is no visible tags on the motor at all. My SC888 has the older pancake motor and I know that's made by Ametek in Mexico.

I just bought a used FQ Majestic on Ebay. It looks like a pretty good deal for 179$ with tax and shipping. The seller said it was approximately a 1995 model, I otherwise have no clue to it's actual age other than that, and it doesn't look too old. It has the metal power head, I'm not sure when...

I just finished cleaning and polishing my Kirby, got it all back together now and it looks great again! Replaced the brushes on the motor while I had it apart, didn't do the bearings at this time since the local vacuum guy didn't have any and the current ones are still in good shape. The cord...

I've got my Heritage 1 in pieces right now as I'm cleaning and polishing it. I cleaned up the motor and am gonna get some new brushes to put in it. But I'm wondering what else should I do with it while I have it apart, and I'm not sure what points to grease/oil on this particular motor...

Just made and posted a video of my T-Series and Smartvac sucking up shredded paper back to back. T series was a little more hungry then the smartvac, but in the end the smartvac had less paper stuck in the brushroll.

Back on Saturday I was at Kohls and came across a bagged T series on display. Hadn't seen one in person yet so I looked it over and it looked pretty nice, fairly solid built and not too flimsy, except for the handle which tends to twist a little more easily then I'd like. Fast forward to today...

I finally got around to making a video of my Hoover Guardsman C1631 that I got brand new back in June. Gotta love the sound of the motor starting up!

It was ordered on May 5th so it would get here in time for my May 14th birthday but that never happened... VCDiscounter, whom it was ordered from took a month and a half to get it in. Hoover/TTI probably sells so few that they don't stock any in the US and had to wait for them to manufacture it...

Been emptying out our basement and this nasty NASTY rug was uncovered, so I couldn't resist the temptation and decided to vacuum it....and make a movie of that too. I didn't want to use my Sanitaire's or the Kirby since there were things on the rug that could wreck there fans. So I used my Boss...
