    Santo Vacuum on ebay

    I found this old Santo vacuum while scrolling on eBay. I find it interesting because of how little people seem to know about it and also the fact that this one looks to be very incomplete. Does anyone have a one of these in their collection because if so I would love to see a picture. I'm also...

    What happened to the "Vacuumman" site???

    I wouldn't know what happened to it... But do you remember the URL? I've never even heard of the site, so I am kind of curious to look it up on the Wayback Machine.

    Your thoughts

    For me I collect toy garbage trucks, like the First Gear scale models. I don't know why, but I was fascinated with garbage trucks ever since I was little.

    Happy Friday — Which of your machines have you enjoyed running today?

    My Electrolux XXX I used it to clean the stairs and a bit of the basement living room. Even with the original cloth hose, it still has some pretty solid cleaning performance!

    1934/5 Kirby Model C Restoration

    Very Nice Work! I was wondering if you could tell me how you took the fan off of the machine. I am trying to disassemble the motor from my Kirby model C but I don't want to ruin it. Mine also needs new bearings and I was wondering if you could tell me what type it uses.

    what is your favorite vacuum in your collection?

    My favorite vacuum is My Kirby model C. I picked it up recently for only $35 and when I got the machine, it was an utter mess. The whole thing was covered in some sort of brown dust, the brushroll was covered in hair, and the bag is filled with dog hair. The good thing about the machine is...

    1930s Kenmore Deluxe Vacuum Belt No.?

    I'm also looking for a suitable belt for mine When I got my Kenmore De Luxe, it came with a Hoover flat belt on it. However, it was slightly too wide and it left a small burn mark on the bottom cover.

    Early Kenmore Deluxe

    Cool! Very cool! Thanks for uploading that picture of the Sears Catalog vacuum page. It really helps me a lot because now I have an idea of when my Kenmore Deluxe was made. The unusual thing is, my Kenmore Deluxe doesn't have a model number listed anywhere on the vacuum, it only has a serial...

    Happy 114th Anniversary!!!!!!!

    This is certainly an occasion to celebrate! I think I still have a slice of cake in my fridge somewhere. Anyways, it must be really cool to be related to the inventor of the vacuum and collect vacuums at the same time! Happy birthday Hoover!

    What's a vacuum you shouldn't like but really do?

    One of my favorite vacs is the Dirt Devil Vision Specifically the older Swivel glide models. I don't own one, as they can be very rare, but I have seen a couple in person and I would like to get one because I currently don't own a bagless vacuum. I also want one of these dreaded machines...

    Clements model M

    What an amazing find! I have been to dozens of antique stores, estate sales, and garage sales trying to find old and antique vacuums, but I have never found anything this cool. Yours isn't in too bad of shape and with some cleaning and polishing, it should look almost new again! I wish you the...

    Antique Rare 1920’s Bee-Vac Vacuum Cleaner WORKS - Price Negotiable

    Like all of you I would love to buy it! However, the seller doesn't offer shipping, and that is why no one has bought it yet. I would pay a pretty penny to have it shipped to me, but I am not sure if the seller would even be open to shipping it. I would make an offer of an extra $100 if he...
