My Collection + Intro

[panasonicvac]

Well it's finally time to join the club here. I've done a bit of cleaning over the weekend so I thought I might as well go ahead and show off my collection. This is not all of it, this is just what I have at my house so far and I'll go over my storage shed the next day and show a few more there, and hopefully by the end of this week I will go over to my other storage shed and show off what's left.

These are taken from my phone and it's pretty bad quality, my apologies cause my actual camera is currently down at the moment.

So that's about it at my house and hopefully I will finish off the rest of my collection this week.

Intro: I loved Vacuums ever since I got my first toy Dirt Devil for Chirstmas at the age of 1. My favorite is Panasonic because I grew up around with them and it will always be my favorite of all time.
My favorite type of vacuum are what you call metal bypass uprights which are like the ones you would find at a vacuum store like Panasonic, Tacony(Riccar or Simplicity), Dust care(Evolution or Cirrus), Sanyo and Sharp but out of all oh those brands I would perfer Panasonic.
I also like older vacuums like Elites, Bravos, Dirt Devil MVPs or such on.
I also like I guess I would call like old school vacuums which includes the newer versions today like Electrolux(Aerus), Kirby, Royal, Rainbow, Filter queen, Eureka(Sanitaire version), or Hoover commercial vacs.
I really really like central vacs, I would never live in a house without one.

That's about what I can think of at the moment, I do have Youtube and I am planning on posting videos of my vacuums once my camera is fixed but I think I would perfer just showing the ones you would request for me to do that I can do on a weekend when I'm not doing anything else (unless I'm selling one of mine I can show off before it's gone).

I would love to buy that kenmore professional 12 if you want to sell it at any point

Ctvacman

Actually my great aunt I believe still has one of these and if she passes away and if I can my hands on it, I could sell my other one to you so I'll let know on that.

 

[ctvacman]

Ok thanks

Continuing on...

Made it to my storage shed today although there's only a few here.

Eureka Optima we use in our camping trailer about once a year at least.

Central Vacuum #2

Eureka The Boss

You may notice there are two of these here although one of them is actually our neighbor's because we both share the shed together (It's actually too big that we couldn't use only one system here). The one with the snow ball on top is my neighbor's.

Hi Alex...welcome to Vacuumland!

I think that Kenmore Power Centre upright you have was made by Whirlpool, not Panasonic.

I have been intrigued by the transition Sears made from Whirlpool to Panasonic as the primary maker of Kenmore vacuums in the 1980's. I know that Matsushita bought the Whirlpool vacuum factory in Danbury, Kentucky in 1991 - thus fully taking over manufacturing of Kenmore vacs. But it seems that before that date, Sears was selling some Kenmore vacs made by Panasonic at some other American factory. But I have yet to find evidence of a location for that American Matsushita vacuum assembly line. Would you know?

 

[eurekaprince]

Sorry....I meant Danville, Kentucky....not Danbury...

 

[panasonicvac]

I'm pretty sure my power center was made by Panasonic or maybe it was made by Whirlpool before it was taken over by Panasonic at that time(I know there are a few models of these that are made and licensed by Panasonic in their Ultra-Pro line back then). Strange I didn't know there was another factory. I'll have to ask my old buddy who has sold Panasonic for over 30 years before he retired if there was another factory and where it was made.

I've made it to my other shed earlier this week finishing off my collection here.

Since that shed was next to my Grandparents, I thought I would show off their collection.

You can easily tell what these are:

So that finishes up here. If I feel like it, I could show off the my relative's vac collection if I have time.

 

[panasonicvac]

Was at my aunt's place this week so thought I would show off her collection.

 

[vacuumlad1650]

Welcome! Im Andy, and i mainly collect vintage Aerus Electrolux vacuums, but a few late 1990's and early 2000's vacuums have found shelter in my collection

 

[vacerator]

Beam Serenity series;

Great system! She needs a total control hose. A Cana-Vac gas pump style hose will fit, and is the most reasonably priced.

We just got the handle replaced not too long ago, the handle used to be white but the black one was the only replacement option we could do. I recommended her to get different handle for it but she went with this one because it it was still under warranty. She is still quite happy with this so far so no changes are going to happen at the moment.
