Hoover Concepts

[petek]

I bought that black PowerMax new at Costco and yes it must have been around 1992, just prior to us moving from our house in the city to the country in 93 because I do remember using it in the city house. It is extremely loud, bareable when you set the speed at low and it is rather clumsy. I don't use it often anymore, it's a pain to carry up and down stairs but it probably is the absolute best upright vacuum for actual cleaning that I've ever used when it comes to all the dog hair etc we have here.

I have a Hoover Concept U3103 and a Hoover PowerMax U3725-930.
Both of my Hoovers have the steel 4 brush Quadraflex agitator.
I am looking for a Hoover PowerDrive U6311-930.

Jeff,

That Hoover Concept is very cool looking! I love the black and orange stripes on the bag.

Alan, I have the twin to your Concept. I love it except it has a small hole worn in the bag.

Pete, I also Have the Power Max, mine is the burgandy one from April 1992. It's tools have never been used only thing is I do not have a hose for it and can't find one. Anyone able to help me locate a hose to fit my power max. I also thing it is kind of akward to steer and only use it in the gameroom downstairs where I dont vacuum as often. Great vacuum though.

Jeff,
i love your Montgomery Wards version of the concept. Nicer looking than JC Penny's Version.

Ahhhh!

Now I understand! He meant "Montgonery Wards" and not "Monkey Wards."
