Double Hoover thrift store find!

Picture of the WT's serial number. Two additional languages, ooh.

 

[ladydobermann]

Picture of the WT leaned back. Supposedly the ones with a semi-clear bag housing are rarer? I'm not sure. It just looks like a Nintendo 64 controller to me!

 

[ladydobermann]

Picture of the WT's plug. It looks the same as the Dimension, except for...

 

[ladydobermann]

... The size and texture of them. Was there any reason for this change?

 

[ladydobermann]

Picture of some electrical tape on the WT's cord. Not a big deal as I need to put some electrical tape on my Kirby's cord anyway.

 

[ladydobermann]

Picture of the WT turned on. Again, the headlight doesn't seem to work. Is this the Wallflowers?

 

[ladydobermann]

SPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN

 

[ladydobermann]

Picture of the manual. The store threw in a manual for a newer model because the employees don't do anything more than glance at them. If anyone needs the manual for a 2008 Wind Tunnel, I might be able to hook you up.

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS AUGH

And, yes. That's a fridge in the background. I might make a post in the Household section of the website but I'm having a hard time caring because I'm wanting to move town.

Picture of the receipt. Only cost me $21.10. Sorry for the photo quality - my camera was fogging up.

That's all from me for now, before I disappear back into the aether. And remember this - $20 is $20!

Great finds! The transparent Windtunnels I believe were their top of the line models. The brushroll on the Windtunnel is fairly worn down but its not too bad yet. The Dimension is a well-loved model by a lot of collectors, and its in really nice shape too. Those tool caddy doors are usually always broken off and either taped on or gone.

I would have grabbed the filter queen. It’s a much better vacuum in my opinion.

The Princess models go for good money on eBay.

 

[ladydobermann]

Oh, I know it's a better vacuum, Kloveland. But it's too expensive for me. I'm still trying to financially recover from buying a Kirby for the same price last summer!

 

[mieles5380leo]

How much did they want for the filter queen?

 

[panasonicvac]

I also would've gotten the Filter Queen as well.
