    Got a new (used) Sanitaire System_Pro upright circa 2006

    Vacuum devil In the professional setting I always use the genuine gaskets. They’re easy enough to install after some practice. But at home I just use that weather stripping. I can tear them down and not have to fight the gasket every time I want to clean them out. It could go either way...

    Hide-A-Hose

    Direct air power heads for central vacuums. Mikanik, a long long time ago they had a Eureka direct air vacuum set up as a power nozzle with a wand in place of a handle. I believe it was on an AirWay? If not someone correct me please.

    Are ST Style Bags Good

    Stricklybojack Sorry for the year late reply. I performed the conversion on an Eureka 1432A. The filltube came off of my Kirby Ultamite G Diamond Edition. You slide the Kirby's filltube over the horn on the F&G outer bag and rolled the spring up to lock it in place. I have since had a Sanitaire...

    My birthday gift from me to me!

    Tolivac It is a durable vacuum. nice sturdy plastic and thick steel. I know it will last me a long time! I love it more every passing day! I am placing an order for 8 belts for the "industrial" hoovers tomorrow. Should last longer than the belts meant for the residential machines.

    Tolivac Suggested retail is around $300 but still worth it IMO. I love the guardsman machines with a passion :)

    My birthday gift from me to me!

    thank you! I was willing to pay full retail for it, but I searched the internet for a lower price just to see if I could find one. I have wanted that hoover for about a yearcnow but never had the $ to do so so I started saving for it and happened to find it for almost half price of full retail...

    My birthday gift from me to me!

    Price is a steal! Exactly why I got it. I was willing to pay close to full retail for it but then I stumbled upon that website and my jaw dropped and almost broke my floor because of the price and free S&H! I am very pleased with everything about it! I ran out of things and places in my house...
