The cropped-eared queen is back with another tale of vacuum collecting!
Dateline: 18 November 2021, 4:00 PM. It's a bitterly cold day. The house smells like Neenah-Menasha (my housemate was cooking with cauliflower), so I decided to go and try to fill up my tires at the Kwik-Trip. I get to the free air station and notice that it's too dang cold to fill up my tires. The Saint Vincent De Paul thrift store I mentioned in a previous post (post #446733) is right next door, so I thought I'd treat myself. The store closes in 15 minutes, so I kick up my feet and head downstairs.
Here's a photo of the selection they had. If I had disposable income, I would have grabbed that Filter Queen Princess II. But I don't, so I grabbed the two Hoovers. Speedrun Timer: 06:21:29 (nice).
Picture of the Hoovers in the back of my truck after arriving home. I had to torture the wheels because I wasn't strong enough to lift them out to the car. A kind older gentleman helped me get them up the stairs in the store, though. Thank you, kind stranger!
1997 Hoover Dimension U5209-930. Apologies for using camera flash so much in these pics, but I have plans for the next 2 days and wanted to show these to y'all ASAP.
Picture of the height adjustment of the Dimension. I'm not sure if it's supposed to look like that or if it broke off some years ago? I quite like the overly-'90s font used here.
Picture of the height adjustment for the WT. If the Dimension has a performance rating of 19, and the WT has a rating of 25, then what does an old Kirby rate? 500?
