Okay folks, my apologies to anyone that is not pleased that the Sanyo is off the market but husband had to save me from myself and stop me from selling it. Hes right, I would have regretted it! So, these machines are for sure for sale! Some are duplicates, others I don't really want to restore, some are just not my thing. Again, all reasonable offers considered and buyer pays shipping. I will describe them the best I am able to. The Electrolux Epic is in great shape; new dirt intake tube, exhaust filter and brushroll. The only thing wrong is it has a few shiners in the cord. The blue plastic base convertible has a partially broken zipper pull (still zips closed), is missing the brush roll and sole plate (i'm sure I have it somewhere), is missing the bag retainer spring that goes over the type C dirt tube. Other than that the motor, cord, and body are in great shape and it runs great. The Electrolux XXX is exactly like you see in the pic. It has no cord, no hose but it does have a strong motor in it that runs well it would make an excellent donor machine. The light blue Eureka is in overall great shape. The bag and cord are not originally (clearly lol) but overall its in great shape mechanically. The emblem comes off for the attachments to be attached and the set I have that came with it will go with it. The coffee can Hoover is a Special 541. It works well (as well as that motor did anyway) but is missing the cord (it was rotten) and may be missing the fan cover plate. It has an aftermarket H Cleaner bag that was on it but its purple and ugly as sin. The bag can go with it if any potential buyer wants it but it does not have the bag ring on it as it was broken and got pitched. Parts donor machine most likely. The mustard convertible is what you see. It has paint flaking on the base and some deep gouges in the plastic hood but it is complete and works well with the original bag and cord. The bad is that a hood screw is missing, the attachment suction door spring retainer is broken (it closes but not on its own) and some of the bag buttons are torn and the base of the bag by the bellow is fairly threadbare. The old Eureka is great all around, no issues or broken pieces, brushroll is short but has life left in it and the bag isn't original. The Kenmore DryTec is dusty and has some yellowing on the plastic but its complete. It works on all settings but the little motor in it is a screamer!! But, every DryTec i've encountered is a screamer including the other one I have! Please let me know if you need or would like additional pics or info. Thanks!

The Dry Tech is a very rare piece of vacuum history. It was the first Dyson designed dual cyclone unit ever sold in America. And, it is the only dirty air dual cyclonic vacuum ever invented. As the dirt passes through the suction fan on its way to the bin, there is no pre-motor filter to fill up. No post motor filter either. Maybe James forgot about this machine in advertising the new Big Ball Cinetic as 'the only vacuum that never loses suction'.
 
Very Nice Whirlpool Kenmore and Drytech!

I hope they find a good home. I'd love the coffee can Hoover, but I have too many vacs that need parts right now (lots of $$$.) I have the Self Propelled version in gray, it's a screamer! I also have a Drytech, an early christmas present 1 1/2 years ago from my Grandmother. I love it. It works perfectly and is in excellent condition. Very important piece of vacuum history there.
