Found a Hoover Constellation!

Connie

 


Nice looking Connie. I have a blue one not sure of the model number. Unfortunately, the screws underneath the lid are rusted, so I can't remove them. The only place it has rust on it's body, darn! Fortunately, the motor sounds great. Need to purchase a filter for mine.

Mine still has the original filter, but I'm thinking about replacing it. You can use a bonnet like you would use to polish a car for the filter.

Unfortunately I can't get my Constellation to turn on now. The plastic switch feels loose, so perhaps it has broken?

Found a constellation close to the rubbish!

Hugs to all members of this forum, it's my first post and I apologise for my bad English.
I found a little gem close to the rubbish: hoover constellation s3341.
I cleaned the motor, changed the electric wire and it works great!
Unfortunately the hose is seriously damaged and I need to change it.
I found several websites with this hose, but out of stock.
Do you have any suggestion to find it?
Thanks

Welcome Marco, tu parli la bella lingua italiana, grande piacere, but don't worry about "your bad English", there are a number of people here which English is our second language. Those which English is their mother tongue won't have problem understanding you. The rest, we'll manage one way or the other. Take it easy. Gus
PS for those who don't understand Italian, I said: you speak the beautiful Italian tongue, great pleasure. Sorry.
