Yep... that's the 1934 I made reference to. Quite an attractive machine despite its plastic handle.

Thanks for the info on the F and G bag conversion system. Maybe when the white coating on this bag wears off, I'll get that to replace it with! I did shake it out for the first time today, WHAT A MESS... but still kind a fun to see all the dirt. I'm going to wait until it sags a little before doing it again!

Hmmmm...

...I know I keep posting here but I just love eureka style commercial vacuums. I found YET ANOTHER version of the eureka 1934 by tornado piranha as the commercial carpet keeper. Any one have one of these, or any vacuum based on the 1934? Please post pictures because I just love looking at these vacuums!(I actually think the tornado piranha is in cooler colors than the other 1934 machines. Just a comment.)

Hehehe

I've come up with a new game! Everyone try to find how many 1934 based machines there are! lol

It is pretty... the all black version. Wow, that site has a verion of the Bissell Prolite as well... and they even sell a new 1934 for only 115 bucks!

This machine isn't very heavy, but it is hard to push (even with the hight adjusted correctly) because of how powerful it is. I keep thinking that ballooning bag is going to raise the machine up in the air and make it float! I put the bag on wrong (forgot to snap the "pin" in the hole on the underside) when I emptied it yesterday. Tried to vacuum this morning and felt air rushing out on my bare feet!

Lol

I feel my 518 is going to do it. I thought the bag was going to explode when I first turned it on. Did not think they got that big. hehe. Thats why I like those dump out bags.
