    educate me a little

    Hey guys. I wanted to ask you all about rare hard to find vacuums. I go to flea markets, thrift stores and estate sales in search of vintage kitchen items. But I have and do run into old vacuums quite a bit. I know there are a lot of them you guys really want. While I could never remember all...

    Selling My Collection

    Im sorry. You have an impressive collection. I'm sorry you have to sell it. I was thinking about what would become of my collection if something happened to me or I just couldn't keep it. My collection is modest compared to what most of you have and most of mine is kitchen appliances but the...

    self propelled power nozzle?

    Last weekend we went to my boyfriend's grandmas to paint. We moved the sofa and found a bunch of dust bunnies and other dirt so she got out her vacuum. It's a Panasonic canister with a powernozzle. The power nozzle looked rather big and it was really heavy. Once I turned it on I noticed the...

    saniway canister My mom has a royal canister that looks just like the saniway only its blue. She's had it all my life. It's a really good vacuum and still works great. I had to use it a lot growing up so I hated it but I can appreciate what a nice vacuum it is now. Her Panasonic upright is...

    bison vacuum

    I saw the bison vacuum in the sale section. I had never heard of a bison. I'm just curious about that brand. It looks like a mutant Kirby. I'm sure it must be very heavy and from the looks of it I would imagine it would be very ungainly to use. When were these vacuums popular? We're they as...

    looking for a canister

    Hi everyone. I'm looking for a canister to replace my ge swivel top. It doesn't have to be a ge. That's just the brand I lost. I'm just looking for a functional canister to use in my wood floors and above the floor stuff. It doesn't need to be all original or be in perfect cosmetic condition. I...

    purple hoover

    Hi everyone. I stopped at a thrift store this afternoon. I actually went to look for vintage glass which is another thing I collect. I hit the appliance section to look for anything cool and retro. I found a purple Hoover upright. I don't usually buy retro vacuums because I don't have the space...

    a question about my hoover upright

    No the bag isnt full. I had just put a new bag in before I tried the attachments. I guess it just has lousy suction with the hose. That swingette looks like a nice little vacuum. But I need a canister that has wheels and can be pulled behind. I use a canister on my wood floors. My Hoover has a...

    I have a question for you all. I have a Hoover convertible upright. I have the attachments for it but I had never used them. Since I lost my ge canister I thought I would use the attachment for my Hoover. The suction is awful! The attachments had never been used but just in case I looked the...

    Royal Model 401

    My mom has a royal canister. It's round though. I'm not sure how old it is but she had it before I was born. She uses it for the sofas, stairs and that kind of stuff. I can appreciate how cool it looks now but growing up I didn't like it because using it was one of my chores. Ha-ha.
