[massagemiracle]

Found a Hoover Futura today at vacuum store! Never used, was in storage but the owner sold the hose and floor brush.

Wow! What a find! How bout that.

Looks gorgeous. Doesn't get better than new in box!

 

[brandon_w_t]

Ment to say

doesn't get better than new unused. It may be boxless but thats doesn't matter!

 

[massagemiracle]

The vacuum store had the box, he was in a hurry to leave for the day that I forgot it. But I will go back and get it. But its the original box.

 

[massagemiracle]

I need to find a hose and the floor brush

 

[massagemiracle]

Apparently Hoover changed the name to PowerMax, then to the Hoover Windtunnel canister

They also had one of these labeled as a Hoover Spectrum. There may have been a few more that I don't know of as well.

The hose is sold out on the Hoover site but claim that they are going to replenish it, $69. Wheels are 3.80 each, the floor brush is 11.59 on ebay. Not too bad.

wow what are the chances of that .


Its alwasy so cool to find the origonal box and its in such great condition


 


that was a great find

THe BOx

He actually ordered the wheels for me! I was suprised that he would but he was nice enough to do so, now if he would have only ordered a hose!

 

[gsheen]

I just wish we could get cylinder vacuums with proper power nozzles here and not the stupid air driven ones.


 


I think that is why I have alwasy prefered upright vacuums

 

[massagemiracle]

I too can't stand the Air Driven "turbo" nozzles. Not a fan, yes they do work to a point, but I can't stand the noise!

 

[gsheen]

Its not the noise for me but I like a carpet to look vacuumed after I have done some vacuuming, I prefer the proper brush action

Moved to Contemporary

 

[massagemiracle]

The Futura is 21 years old, manufacturing date on the vacuum is 1990

 

[hoovercelebrity]

As I said in my email to you, I have the same model, same cleaner-- which was made in 1993. It's my final call what goes in each forum, respectively.

Supremacy labeled Futura

Mine's from 1990 & has EVERYTHING but the box! My Futura canister is badged as a Supremacy I bought it at a furniture store (display model) since the owner said it was the last of 3 Hoover vacs & shampooers they had left.

Ben,


 


Guidelines read:


The Vintage Vacuum Forum for discussions relating to all Vacuum Cleaners and Vacuum Related Topics for machines produced before 1980.


 


You Stated:


<strong>The Futura is 21 years old, manufacturing date on the vacuum is 1990</strong>


 


<strong>Done....
</strong>

 

[hoovercelebrity]

In a silly twist of events, the forum guidelines, and the buttons that you choose from when you create a thread don't match.  One says 20 years, one says 1980.


 


It's been brought to my attention numerous times, I just need to sit down and fix it.


 


Non issue.

Just a thought...

Cars become classics at 20 years... Antique is past 25 years...

Again, just a thought. I honestly feel 20 years and older should qualify as Vintage.
