    Can anyone identify this from the bottom?

    Found this picture on here of this stockpile of vacuums from a few years back and I cant for the life of me decipher what this thing is with the red brushroll? Is it Dirt Devil, Hoover? I know its something from the 2000s judging by aesthetics.

    Definitely NOT the WORST* I meant to say.

    Im just really surprised as all

    I just think it would be interesting to own a piece of kind of lost Hoover history. The bagless machines do have the flaw but at the end of this day, it's still the Windtunnel chassis so it's definitely the WORST thing out there, just the bagless system was very very flawed. I don't think they...

    New Shark Navigator!

    Same as my copper one but I love the aqua green (camera DOES NOT do it justice). To heck with it, these are good vacuums. I've criticized them in the past but the other is still going strong a few years later with monthly cleaning of the filters. The amount of gunk this thing can pull out of the...

    Panasonicvac Yeah I saw that on ebay! Wild how few appear, it doesn't even have the appearance of a commercial grade unit. But I passed on it because the only one of these I want is the Aqua since that's the one I saw at Target as a kid. I still remember that day. It was right next to a baby...

    Anyone have.......

    Photos taken by you of vacuum aisles in stores from different times? Could be the 50s, 70s, 90s or 2000s!

    When was this Eureka released?

    I've seen very few pictures of it but I wasn't aware Eureka had some power head canisters in the 2000s. So used to the Mighty Mites. I know in the 80s and 90s they did, but never did I hear of the Home Cleaning System. When was this released? How were they performance wise? Looks like a really...

    Wstonehockertv Yup, I think they sold the navy blue color scheme. Hoover used to sell the same vacuum with a different color scheme at particular stores. The blue was sold at Kmart, the aqua was sold at Target, and the red was sold at Walmart. The Fold Aways actually debuted with the same exact...

    Blackheart Interestingly I've seen more of those Sprint bagless units despite the fact they have the same flaws design.

    Id get one..... For the nostalgia factor. Make it like a Sunday driver, whereas the Shark or something that can take the abuse remain the daily drivers. The Windtunnel and TurboPower variants do look nice.

    IDK if the teal is really that dark, or its just really faded after 22 years.

    Other photos of U5348 Apparently this sold rather far overseas as well.

    huskyvacs Seems like Maytag Hoover REALLY just did not hold up in the bagless department. Which sucks because before they die out or clog from my understanding, theyre actually fairly DECENT performers.

    Panasonicvac The bagged version of the twin chamber is the vacuum that launched my interest in vacuums. I wrill remember one night searching all sorts of different vacuum sites (this is like over 20 years ago). Came across a site selling Henry's (so a UK site at the time), a Sanitaire website...

    Im just really surprised as all

    In all honesty I never cared for this machine as a kid. I always liked the soft guard bagged models the best. I only really liked this one variant because of the color. We got the Fold Away back in 2003 which is almost identical. That machine I have a ton of nostalgia for, saw this photo on...

    panasonicvac The more I look at it the more I see there's actually no proper seal under the lid where the canister disconnects from. What were they thinking adding no seal. Same with the direct air twin chamber, no seal!!!! But perhaps that gets a pass because it was literally the FIRST EVER...

    Im just really surprised as all

    Amazing how insanely difficult it is to actually find any of these types of Hoovers. Granted all the bagless systems have their flaws but were these REALLY worse than the also flawed Twin Chamber and Fold Away units? With good maintenance my Grandmothers Fold Away actually lasted her 9 years! I...
