Thank you for the birthday wish! I love it, and love how it is styled after the Decade 80. The brush roll is very aggressive on it, combined with the Hoover famous air flow makes a really great deep cleaner. I noticed it finding more and more fine dust and grit in my carpets. It surprised me that all of that was still hidden deep down left by my Sanitaire, at least its out now. :)
 
Happy Birthday!

I got the C1631 Guardsman one year for Christmas, I love the sound and the Decade 80 shell. I'm jealous of the red bag and headlight on yours! Where did you order it from?
 
I just looked at VCDiscounter - I can't believe the price for that machine! It looks like a steal! I'm gonna have to get one of these for Christmas or something.
 
Price is a steal!

Exactly why I got it. I was willing to pay close to full retail for it but then I stumbled upon that website and my jaw dropped and almost broke my floor because of the price and free S&H! I am very pleased with everything about it! I ran out of things and places in my house to vacuum :( lol
 
Happy Birthday....

I hate it when a cheap excuse gives you a good reason to buy something, but then you dismiss the excuse because what you bought is just so darn cool. Very nice decade-commercial. I do not get interested in convertibles, but I have always thought decades are the bomb.
btw, my christmas gift to myself-excuse last year was my innovation. then I realized I don't need an excuse to buy one of those.
 
thank you!

I was willing to pay full retail for it, but I searched the internet for a lower price just to see if I could find one. I have wanted that hoover for about a yearcnow but never had the $ to do so so I started saving for it and happened to find it for almost half price of full retail. But thawenkyou dor the complements!
 
Does anyone know if these machines were discontinued? I found a post from John Gregory from last October and from that post it sounded like they were, but the Hoover Professional Series machines are still for sale many places online, is there that much leftover stock or are they actually still being made?
 
Birthday gifts

My (early!!) Birthday present to myself was a nice lathe, with milling head. Not really vacuum-related I know (unless I start using it to clean-up chewed brushroll ends, or make new axle spindles), but thought I'd share that with you all... ;-)

All best

That is cool! Maybe you could do some projects like replicating some of the old hoovers! like the hoover baby? Cant think of specific model #'s atm. long day, lol! but you listed some cool uses for it like cleaning up chewed up brushroll ends ect... Enjoy!

I like that Hoover vacuum,as well-too bad the TTI folks aren't building those anymore-the price is a bargain for what you get.Would be a nice vacuum for someone with lots of carpet-but don't want to spend a lot on the vacuum.
 
Even at $300 its pretty reasonable.Sanitaires can cost that much or more.Hoover Guardsman vacuums are very nice well made machines.If you want a "Convertable" style Hoover vac-this is as close as you will find today.For home use,should last a long time.For commercial use-who knows-commercial vacs often get abused by folks that don't own them.Life as a commercial vacuum cleaner is pretty rough.
