Fantom Lightning

[durango159]

Here is one for sale on Craigslist Frederick, Maryland. $15, I don't see the mini power head or bare floor brush, but there's only one picture.

Here is another Fantom Lightning for $15 on Craigslist. Glen Burnie, MD. This has the bare floor tool and mini power head, but it does not mention or picture the main power head.

I have a lightning canister that is brand new, but pulled off the floor because we needed the hose, wand and nozzle for a customer's vac.. Are you still looking to barter or buy?

 

[jkbff]

I guess I didn't realize it but I have the wand and hose, just not the power nozzle.

I had a Lightning in the past; but the wheels kept falling off. It was my first vac I've bought new since moving out on my own; sadly I gave i to my dad because he needed a vac. I. M. O. I think this Lightning was the best Fantom ever. I also had a Fury, but the cyclone chamber cracked.

Both are still in my dad's possession to this day.

I miss the Lightning & any dual-cyclone Fantoms.

Thanks!

&#92Rugsucker Thanks! Please tell him to call me at 2152910583.
@durango159 I emailed but no reply.
@jkbff I would love to have it!!!
@floor-a-matic I think so too! I also love the Fury, Wildcat, and Crosswinds as they were pretty unique!

Email again.

szymonrules: I always mention item and Craigslist ad when emailing Craigslist people. I love Craigslist but its definitely a tool to be careful with!!! Have to trust seller, buyer and merchandise is as stated.

Sometimes it takes 48 hours to hear back.

Lately I've been emailing every yard sale ad on Craigslist after they've had their yard sale to see if there is any merchandise left over such as vacuums that I may have interest in. I get some replies but with sending out over 100 emails, I'm definitely not getting anywhere near that amount of responses back. The emails are quick, I just cut and paste the body into a new message each time. The standard message talks about items like canister power nozzle vacuums that I really want and occasionally I'll add something if their ad happened to mention something else that sounded interesting. I search within about 1.5 hours radius. If I find a Hoover Celebrity IV Elite canister with power head, a Bob-Cat 21" push mower, Eureka Express canister and some other things of high interest, good price and reasonable condition, you better believe I'm like that song: "Hit The Road Jack!"

WOW!! That's a nice one too! Looks like it was very well taken care of. The only thing missing is the upholstery tool, but everything else is there, & the upholstery tool could be found on Ebay in time.

Fantom Lightning

I'm new here- just read thru thread. I had a Lightning which sat in attic since 2001 or so. New tenant needed a vac so I cleaned it up and works great. Then started research to find parts. Have found sites that sell the HEPA filters and other select parts, but cannot find a user manual. Can anyone help?
