Thanks John, I guess it doesn't feel too out of place for me as we did get the Turbolite.

I see Elites

And Eureka Bravos all the time at the Goodwills here, I think they are just another vacuum as I remember them new, Maybe I ought to start buying them up .....I never thought they would be wanted.

Very nice, I had a Legend ll...Sold it on though, I have had many Kirbys but I never keep them long, I am pretty fickle about them.

Here is my other Elite ll, Total System 430 in its unforgettable pose!

I guess when you remember something from new or seeing it on sale they are not really significant or collectible to you.

for me, although I was around when these were being made, I was too young to remember and also they were not sold here makes them pretty collectible to me.

I love how retro, yet modern they look, I think that is what really draws me too them...I have been obsessed with Elites since I saw Mrs Doubtfire, I always remember wanting "that vacuum" as a kid, specifically the model I saw in the film and I feel really lucky to own that model now! (as sad as it sounds!)

A shame we didn't get more Turbolite models. We already had the Turbopower and Turbomaster and then the Turbopower 2, so I guess Hoover saw no market for more models of the Elite type cleaners.
