Hoover Lark 14

[peterb]

Hi all,
My first post on here. I was lucky enough to acquire a maroon hoover Lark from the US a couple of years ago. My question is what does the tool converter look like on this? Would one from a hoover 119 fit this machine ?
Thanks
Peter

Hoover also sold a vacuum called the Lark that was a simple lightweight thing with a standard Hoover hard floor brush.

Hi Peter,

Welcome and congrats on obtaining a hard-to-find Hoover Lark. The link is to an archived thread which will answer your question and more. https://vacuumland.org/threads/how-rare-is-a-hoover-lark-model-14.3932/

Other USA Hoovers manufactured around the time were: Standard Angle Conversion Upright 29, "Aero-Dyne" Tank 41 & "Holiday" Tank 415 (brown color attachments), and the Floor Polisher 0215 in case you'd want to make it part of a set.

Happy Hoovering!

Welcome aboard Peter!
Glad you were able to get a Hoover Lark 12! The Lark 14 was blue and white, by the way. I also have a Lark 12 and hope to get an attachment set for it someday! Don't know if the converter is the same as the 119 (115 here in the US) but assume it would be similar since they both have the front connection. Here's a pic of my lark 12, and also one of my 29, one of the ones that Paul mentioned.
