Hello everyone! As the title reads for this post, I am finally ready to let go of some of the pieces that were in the collection of my late friend Jason Huber, or you may have remembered him as Jae Devine. For those that don’t know or hadn’t heard yet, Jae was killed back in September 2021 in an...

I’m sure a lot, if not most of you saw the post with this picture in it (photo credit to HardlyFlick). Like many of you, I saw many amazing things in that post and as tempting as some of them seemed, one stood out to me more than any of them. When I heard that they had all been sold to Mr. Kyle...

Now that I’ve got your attention... So, as the story goes, I was going online to search for late 70’s muscle cars on Craigslist. Except, when I put Craigslist into my phones search bar, it automatically goes to search for “Hoover” (can’t imagine why that would happen being a vacuum collector)...

So this weekend’s cleaning was done thanks to Sears and Roebuck! This past week I managed to find a very nice 1918 Energex by Birtman. Being that this model is 100 years old, it deserved a cleaning and polishing. It also still has its original lightbulb plug! The next machine was one that I...

2 NEW ELECTROLUXES! This past weekend as well as today, my collection gained a couple new members. The first is a beautiful red and cream Canadian Electrolux model 86 from our fellow member Doug Smith. Doug and I have been friends for a long time and agreed on a trade deal which resulted in my...

So for this weekend’s quarantine activity, I decided to call my Singers to choir! From the early platypus model to the later Golden Powermaster, they all came to performance. I will be posting more of each “set” of uprights following this first post of them all together. I do hope you all enjoy...

And once again, my second post for the weekend! Thankfully, all this quarantining has allowed me to get out some of my favorites in my collection again. My next post is about a dream machine that took me years to find. This particular machine is an Electrolux Model G, BUT, not any model G! This...

Good evening fellow Vacuumlanders! Tonight I will be posting a couple pieces from my collection that haven’t been out or posted on here yet. The first I have to show is my 1974 Kirby-made American Lincoln Super Sweep! Being that these machines have been talked about more recently, I thought that...

Good day to all! In lieu of my recent post about my recent Lewyt finds, I'm now searching for Lewyt Big Wheel machines. I currently have a 111, an 88, and a 93, but I am looking for a model 120, 121, 77, 107, 90, and 105. If you have one of these models and you wouldn't mind parting with it, I'd...

Well everyone, to start off, it truly has been the best of times rather than the worst of times for my collection lately. Today I have for your viewing pleasure, two siblings if you will, born from the Lewyt company. Of these two, one is the rarely seen Lewyt Model 111 Electronic with the other...

I'm so sorry that this is late,but I have been pretty busy, but without further ado, on July 24th, My girlfriend and I set off for Jae Devine's home in Witchita, Kansas from Kirkland, Washington in a rented 2017 Chevy Sonic Turbo loaded down with vacuum cleaners. We made it there on the 25th and...

I am looking for a few specific DAM's. I am looking for any non-powerdrive and headlighted models like the Cylon yellow 1157 or the orange U5007. I am also looking for the 1136, the U6039, and 1140 as I have always wanted a blue DAM. Let me know if any of you guys have one for sale. I am willing...

Well everybody, a very special dream machine has finally it's made its way into my collection! This Hoover Senior model 652 from the UK was just recently sold to me by Robert Coonradt. This machine is extremely rare in the US because this was Great Britain's version of the US's Convertible...

Good afternoon everyone! Well today I wanted to show you all a project that I've been working on for a little while now. Well it all started when our friend Jeff Parker put up a few machines for sale via Facebook. Well, the first was this (before picture) of a Model 26. It was an okay looking...

I have just recently found a very rare version of the Kenmore/Singer Twin Fan here. This was a variation for Sunbeam known as the Vista Deluxe Heavy Duty. It was done up in the Sunbeam blue along with a dark metallic blue paint on the base and handle. I love this machine and had to get a picture...

After searching for years, I have finally found a machine that has eluded me until now. That machine is none other than the 1959 Hoover Constellation Model 87 with the original and production made electric hose. This hose of course being the on/off switch. And here she is!

Well as we welcome 2017, I can't help but to review the various machines and additions that I made to my Collection at the end of 2016 thanks to the help of people like Jae Devine, Tom Anderson, and Kyle Krichbaum. Well without further ado, here is the list of my newest additions: 1. Hoover...

Just thought I'd see if anyone out there is interested in selling a Lewyt Big Wheel. I've always wanted one, but never been able to find one that wasn't on Ebay for some large sum of money. Preferably one with a hose and attachments, but I'm not too picky. Thanks! Email: [email protected]...

Yesterday, Tuesday, April 13, Gary Schwertly, Karl Wierman (me), and Doug Smith congregated at my school for a mini meet. With me bringing an approximate amount of 17 machines, Gary bringing 4 machines, and Doug bringing 2. Our congregation consisted of Doug giving a lecture on the history of...
