A few nice vintage vacuums

OMG. Now this is a very rare Kirby find.

Late 1960s Sunbeam realness

Sometimes, you just Gotta get a Hoover. But then the dust belches out and you put it away.

 

[dysonman1]

Two of my favorite vacuums to use.

Oh how I remember these late 1970s blue Kenmore “Sears Best” PowerMate Vacuums lined up new in the stores. I love mine.

I would never create a thread, and then reply to myself 150 times, without putting up any pictures of beautiful vacuum cleaners of all brands and ages. Truly diversity for all.

Hi Tom 


 


What is the machine to the right of the Classic III and what does that huge hose belong too

 

[dysonman1]

Very late gold Model D Rexair “Rainbow”. Within weeks, this became the chrome dome.

 

[dysonman1]

Beautiful Lewyts. And so very quiet. I love using them

Vintage Hoover demonstration tools. For in-home demonstrations.

New Electrolux upright. It originally belonged to Fred Nelson. I love this machine

 

[dysonman1]

The singer Golden glide and the dual power vac

 

[dysonman1]

The very first Kenmore canister with a powermate. The cord from the powermate to the machine was coiled like a telephone cord and plugged into the side.

The 1939 FilterQueen model 200. It is a delight to use.

 

[dysonman1]

Not a Hoover snob by any means, but I do love my very vintage models.

 

[dysonman1]

Who couldn’t love the last of the Electrolux model 30s, with self sealing wrappers.

 

[dysonman1]

My new in box Rainbow PE. In my opinion, the best rainbow ever made

 

[dysonman1]

My Olympia One. So satisfying to use.

Great collection man!

In the early 1980s, Panasonic built a line of 2/3 size machines. They are very quiet, very lightweight, and a delight to use. And they pick up dog hair like there’s no tomorrow. Zakk approves.
