    Robin Williams & The Hoover Elite Be Like...

    In the movie Mrs. Doubtfire, a Hoover Elite was featured. I have to think if the late Robin Williams was a vacuum enthusiast himself, not just an actor known for ad-libbing and suicide jokes who showcased his singing talents as the Genie in Aladdin. Well, he's been dead since 2014, so I don't...

    multiple body sprays in the shower

    Here's another bathroom trend that doesn't get much discussion: multiple body sprays in the shower. They were everywhere in the 90's and early-to-mid 2000's, but their existence went back decades. I never experienced it, so I don't have an opinion. I can see why most people don't bother: it's...

    Whirlpool Bathtubs Are A Dead Trend?

    Whirlpool bathtubs only appeal to niche audiences because the general public thinks they are a waste. Also, the ownership of a whirlpool bathtub when it doesn't get much use has one asking themselves this question: what's the point? You have people like my mom who like having a bathtub, which...

    What Happened To FantomTechGuy

    Back in 2017, a guy named FantomTechGuy set out to revive Fantom. I'm led to the belief that he abandoned that journey for something different.

    Sony Handycam: Better Than The Mirrorless Vlogging Cameras?

    I really hate the mirrorless vlogging cameras so much because they have infiltrated the internet and make everything look too corporate and unappealing. Especially in family vlog channels, the overacting, the heavy editing, the kids having little to no privacy, and the controversies surrounding...

    The Physical Media Community

    Back when I was in high school, I was part of an online community called the physical media community. It was a place where me, a person with autism, and other people with special needs got together to share what we liked and disliked about physical media. It used to be a great place. It was how...

    My Mom Vs. A Dodge Charger/Chrysler 300 and Chevrolet Impala

    My mom previously owned two Chevrolet Caprices back in the day: 1979 and 1989. Her father (who died in 1998) owned a 1984 Caprice. They were all sedans because my mom didn't need the extra space provided in wagons and the coupes were not as practical. The fact that my mom owned her 1989 Caprice...

    25 Years Of The New Millenium: Vacuum Edition

What products did they put out that year, alongside redesign or discontinue? Everyone knows that at the time, Hoover was owned by Maytag, Dirt Devil wasn't...

    My Return After A Long Hiatus & Why Bagged Straight-Suction Canisters Are Awesome

    Hey guys, it's been so long since I last posted on here. I've been so busy IRL. I live in my own apartment and I own a Bissell Zing bagged canister. With a set of high quality attachments and cloth HEPA filtration bags, it's an awesome machine. Best $80 ever spent.

    Robin Williams Owned A Hoover Elite?

    The Hoover Elite is from Mrs. Doubtfire, which stars Robin Williams. It has me wondering if Robin Williams owned an Elite machine himself. I wouldn't know because he's been dead since 2014.

    Regina Housekeeper: Was It Bad When It Was Relevent?

    There was no internet in the early 90's, so no one knew how bad the Regina Housekeeper was when it was relevent. Word of mouth was the only way to know how bad it was.

    Bissell Catch-All Is Bissell Junk-All

    The Bissell Catch-All is a rare Bissell as no vids of it on Youtube exist. But I'm not surprised because those have been junked over the years due to dead batteries.

    90's Dirt Devil Commercials & Puppies

    Those old DD commercials from the 90's include Golden Retriever puppies. Can someone explain why they did that? I ask because I used to have a Golden Retriever when I was growing up.

    No Bissell/DD Power Nozzle Canisters Until The Early 2000's

    I was wanting to know why Bissell and Dirt Devil waited until the early 2000's to release a canister with a power nozzle.

    Forgotten Eureka Products

    You know a Eureka product is forgotten when there's no videos of it to be found online or when a pic of it cannot be found. And it's not just their carpet extractors.

    I feel Dirt Devil no longer sells products that are worthwhile. Can there be a way to save the brand from irrelevency?
