    Free Vacuums in NYC (vintage & otherwise)

    Must move these vacuums on to a new home ASAP. All the cannisters are complete with power heads and so forth, i just didn't want to bother gathering everything together for a pic. All except the Electrolux which is only the body as shown. All vacuums work. The only one used here was the...

    Two rare vacuums on San Diego Craigslist

    . Took a stroll down memory Lane and spotted these two. I hit the ground here in the UK and bought a new Henry Canister and will enjoy that along with a handful of vacs that survived (one by accident lol) my massive purge of most all my vacs days before I left...

    Giant San Diego Vacuum Sale

    I will be moving overseas this summer and will be dissolving my collection of around 200 machines. Anyone around here looking to add to their collection? I am not mailing any vacuums as I am too busy to coordinate that. I will drop off at Fed Ex and let them pack/ship. That can be pricey but I...

    Riccar SupraLite

    . Bought one of these for $8 with the usual scuffing, general filth, and the complaint that it "wasn't working right." Well all things considered it's a miracle it worked as long as it did considering all the crap stuffed in the fill tube. THE ENTIRE LENGTH of the air path from sole plate to...

    Got me another Aerus over the weekend

    . I paid more than I usually do, but this one is a like-new-little-old-lady-vac with all the extras, many still in their original wrappers. Also snapped up an 8 amp Royal metal upright and a clean Hoover WindTunnel, both of which I will resell and probably break even on the 3...gas included...

    Vacuum Store Shifts Gears

    . Stopped in to a small mom & pop vacuum store today that I haven't been to in years. Last time I was there they incouraged me to stop by periodically to snag any cool vacuum they may have recently tossed into the dumpster. Never did, but thought to finally do so today. I was the only customer...

    Two Royals are better than one..

    . Exhumed these two Royals from their place of near eternal rest for long over due action. The blue model I bought at a thrift store a couple few years ago, while the red one was acquired father back in time, the details of which now escape me. I have never used either of these two vacuums...

    Panasonic Dual Voltage Bagged Canister Vacuum

    . Just came across one of these while clicking around, and thought to post it for the archive. Never saw one before, and may buy this one if the price is right.

    Never saw the like of these before

    . That Kenmore, in red? Cool! And why I have never seen this cord-away Panasonic looking like a Bissell? For sale on Craig's up LA way, too far for me right now...

And, as i recall, EVERYBODY HERE ON VL LOVES DYSON. So without further ado... What we got here is one nasty vac. Brush roller was tight, filter caked...

    Article: Trade-in vacuums repaired for those in need

    . Great idea! Vacuum stores can repair and donate their suitable trade-in vacs, and probably score a small tax deduction in the process....win win. http://https//www.vdta.com/Magazines/MAY16/Barnhardt_FC_May_16.html
