    Panasonic straight suction canister

    I have had the motor cover off of mine. Its a bit tricky to get the "pedal" off, but I did so, and there's a few screws underneath and the motor cover should come off. Sorry for the delay and if needed, I can open my machine up and provide some pictures.

    Might get this for Christmas

    I'd say go for it. They aren't bad at all. My neighbor has one as its a lot lighter than the Kenmore Progressive Direct Drive she had. Her daughter bought her one of those and I agreed to do a monthly service on it for her. It works well for her needs and she can use it a lot easier than her...

    Panasonic straight suction canister

    So I have one of these machines! Mine doesn't have the original wands or floor nozzle though. Mine does have a slightly different label, but is the same model. I can get some better pictures later, but its nice to see another one of these machines.

    WHERE IS EVERYBODY???

    I'm a daily reader, but I don't post as much as I'd like to. My career and family keep me pretty busy but I do check here daily.

    The Riccar Vibrance has returned

    I'm excited to see these! I wouldn't mind having one myself, but not a priority as I have a few Riccar machines. I have a Vibrance Classic I purchased new in 2013, a HP-3000, and a 8950.

    (2000) Eureka Millennium 2000 bravo 2 model 7676.

    What is the brushroll width? I have a Bravo II baseplate and brushroll but I need to measure the size. If they'll work for you you can have them for the cost of shipping.

    Forgotten Eureka Products

    The Eureka Aero comes to mind to me.

    are these worth getting? hoover/riccar

    I have a newer iteration of the Riccar. I have a 2013 Vibrance Classic and it is a rock solid machine. I bought it new with the deluxe attachment kit for roughly $300 and it has been a great machine. My wife loves using vs her Hoover Windtunnel XL she bought in December of 2021.

    Hoover Dual Voltage Convertible

    I found this at the Habitat Restore in Amarillo a little while back. This machine purrs like a kitten. It's interesting to find one of these 120v/60Hz 240v/50Hz machines in the wild to me. It's joined my fleet of Hoover Vacuums and it's kinda cool to me.

    Rare color variants of particular vacuums

    To me it's this straight suction Kenmore in translucent red and grey. I wish I still had this machine.

    Hoover 6 Gallon Wet Dry Vac Tank Latches

    Would anyone have a couple of these laying around? I bought this machine a couple years back and I'm finally getting around to it on my back log of machines.

    Does anyone here have this Hoover?

    I have a Bagless Tempo which this machine is but in Yellow. It clogs so quickly, but it's a nostalgic machine to me as it was the very vacuum I used at my first job at Fleming's Furniture when I was in High School. I fixed up a Kirby G3 to use in their store and they've used it for the last 10...

    Forgotten Hoover Products

    You don't see the Hoover Sprint terribly often either. It looks like the green bagless Runabout upright a few posts up except its in silver. I have a 12v corded version of the Hoover Dubl-Duty Wet/Dry Hand Vac rebranded as the Hoover Road Rat. It has a bag it and it's two attachment slide into...

    Vacuum Sounds - Helping babies sleep?

    My Son is one now and ever since he was three months old I had put him in his "baby holster" with him facing towards my chest and I would vacuum with one of my quieter vacuums like my Hoover Convertible 1010, Electrolux Model E, Oreck Dutchtech DTX1300 or my Kenmore Magic Blue and it would help...

    Panasonic MC-2730/Jet-Flo 170 Canister

    I bought this canister on eBay a while ago and it didn’t have the wands and floor tool, but is in good shape. I found a set of compatible wands and a floor tool from a later Panasonic canister on eBay as well. It’s a neat little machine and uses the Panasonic Type C-4 bag. I glued the collar...

    Hoover Convertible 1010 Rebuild

    I still have this machine in my collection! It does see use in my house from time to time to keep everything moving on it. I'm out of Type C bags so I'll have to go to Ace and get some, but this machine runs just as good as the day me and my ex put it back together. I'll get some updated...

    Shark Vacuum Fascination

    I bought a Shark Rocket Pet Pro for my wife since she wanted to try one and I was curious if they had gotten any better than the HV301 I had a long time ago. The power nozzle is definitely better as it doesn't obnoxiously yank itself across the floor like the HV301 Rocket did. Its performance is...

    What's your childhood vacuum?

    Mine was my parent's Rainbow D4C with the PE Power Nozzle, they also had a black Dirt Devil Swivel Glide that I wish I had kept. Aside from those my Great-Grandparents gave me my green and brown Hoover Slimline that my mom had thrown away as she wasn't supportive of my hobby then. She still...

    Let’s see your favorite power team setup!

    Mine is my TriStar CXL with a Centec Power Nozzle. This machine has had many different nozzles on it in the time I’ve owned it, and this is my favorite setup. I have quite a few power teams, but this one is still my favorite.
