Calling all Hoover canister owners!

[kloveland]

Ben - Do you have the spec sheet for mine? Is it possible to scan the actual specs?

Rob S - Here is a picture of my Futura. I haven't found the switch that fits my model on eBay. (rather the switch cover)

Sure, I will post some more pictures of my Hoover Canisters.

My friend has an old Powermax at his apartment which I've overhauled a few times, I should see if he's willing to sell it to me.

Kenny,

I can tell you that your machine would date from at least the fall of 1993 as that was when Hoover began the use of the "cleaning effectiveness per amp" thing. All the brochures I found (all from eBay auctions) are those models from circa 1990.

If you could please give me the model # and serial # from yours, I would appreciate it, and from there I can give you the motor switch part # from http://www.hescoinc.com/. Example serial #: 049400692797 (0494=April 1994)

I suppose you only have the cleaner unit but not the power nozzle which would have been the version used for models S3545/3555/3565.

I have the power nozzle it's missing a wheel. This must have been a BOL (Bottom of the line) canister.

I heard the Celebrity/Dimension pulls about 100 inches of water. I do not know the cfms though.

 

[hooverman2121]

Does anybody know how much those Dimensions retailed for back then?

 

[floor-a-matic]

I had a S3555 Futura with Powermatic; bought new around 1991.

Now I own a Celebrity S3187 & a Supremacy like the S3565?

Here's my S3187 Celebrity; I just need to put the selector dial back onto the rug nozzle.

 

[hooverman2121]

I love the retro styling of the Celebrity!

I love them Hoover2121

I love my Hoover PowerMax canisters. I also love the Hoover Windtunnel S3639. Here are some pics of the Hoover Dimension 1000 canister that I got. Here is the Power head housing all cleaned up!!

I need a new hose!!!!

Hose has lots of damage under tape. Front of handle where attachment lock is, is chipped and lock doesn't work well. Connector to suction unit isn't good. Has melted plastic and separation between parts. If anyone knows of anyone with a new or used hose I'm very interested!!!

Don't think you had these in the us, but here is my hoover compact electronic:

Ok Rob, you asked and you shall recieve. All of my Hoover canisters are used but they still function very well.

Picture one - My Hoover Celebrity QS. The front handle is a replacement.

Picture two

Here is the underside of the power nozzle and the attachments. Wonder where this idea came from?

Picture three

Can you believe this one was found in the trash.

Picture four

Once again here is the business end.

Picture five

Here is the complete Futura. Please excuse my interior decorating skills. In this area I am lacking, only in my house would a Christmas tree and fern coexist, side by side.[this post was last edited: 1/4/2013-10:56]

Picture eight

A Pixie, Portable, Constellation and two Port a Powers. I try to have at least one from every major food group, which has been said before on this site. I’ve had three Spirits in the past and have sold them. [this post was last edited: 1/4/2013-10:54]
