Eureka 2091 Restoration Complete!

Does anyone know where to find light bulbs for these vacs? Mine burnt out on both of mine, and I cant find them anywhere...

Any hardware store should have them. I've found them at Ace and Lowe's. It's a 25-watt (15 watt will also work) appliance lightbulb.

Welcome to the 21st century

Fred, that bag material is simply awesome.  You'll be amazed at how much fine dust those bags can handle with virtually no loss of airflow.  And no dusty smell either!

Stunning Fred! Want to spruce up the 63 I just found? hehehe

Nice job, Fred!

<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">You've done a spectacular job with that machine!  I have a similar one -- the 2090A.  It's the same machine but with the Dial-A-Nap height adjustment control instead of the Rugulator.</span>


 


<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">It was the subject of the 2nd video I made for YouTube, incidentally.  I've attached a link to my video if anybody's interested!</span>

Very Very Nice

Great find and restoration Fred. I also had one with the dial a nap feature only mine had a chrome handle. That was back when they first came out. I only had one upright and one canister back then except for my Grandmothers PR-21. I used it for at least 6 years. Wonderful deep cleaner on all types of carpet. As always, you have a way of making a vintage vacuum look new.

PS, (you might want to slowly introduce it to the Hoovers...we don't want anyone getting jealous)...

Beautiful restore job Fred.


Having worked with you on machines before, I know how detailed the end product is.


It's great to find a machine like that, especially since the connection goes back a ways, and bring it back to "new."


Personally, while I love vacuuming with a 60's convertible or 70's concept, those eureka uprights are amazing.


I think they do an incredible job grooming a carpet.


Bravo on a job well done and Enjoy!!
