4 is number

That Lady Bug vacuum looks very similar to a vacuum under the name of Homelite in Britain. The Avanti isn't all that far off by looks, either, especially in the bag topper area. I'm betting they're both made by the same foreign company.

Wow thanks

Again Robert and I am not even finished maybe a part 5 will happen ?

Alex I certain they are made by the same company they even take the same bag .

Kirbyloverdan I have a question about your Platinum by Aerus if you don't mind. If you put the tool caddy on the top of the wand where the handle meets it does it stay attached? For example, if you pull the handle out to clean with the dusting brush does the caddy remain firmly attached to the top of the wand? I'm a little unsure about how it attaches to the wands. I'm just about getting ready to buy one later this year. Thanks man.

I have a Platinum and yes the caddy does remain attached to the wand. I have the caddy attached to the lower wand however as I find that position to be more convenient. The caddy just slips over the top of the wand and there is a groove that it slides into to prevent it from moving.

Thanks countryguy, I had wondered what kept it attached when the handle or wand was pulled out of one end.

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Thank you

Gary for answering Christopher`s question I also placed my tool caddy in the same spot .

Kirbyloverdan....are you going to show some pics of your Hoover Windtunnel Air Cordless soon? I am really interested to see what you think of this vacuum! One of my friends on Facebook posted some pics, but my concern is the powerhead bristles look like they are long & soft, & wouldn't effectively clean carpeting. The Westinghouse Unplugged also had this problem.

Eureka

Lite this was a Black Friday special at WalMart in 2002 for $24.99

At that price I had to buy one .

Dan

 

[kirbylux77]

Dan, that Eureka Lite for $24.99 was quite the score you got there! And I bet that would outclean anything else Walmart had on the shelves for under $100 bucks!

Rob

PS- Congrats on the Part 4! You keep this up, & you're gonna set a Guinness worlds record for longest running thread.

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Rob

I have never used it but I think your right .

Thanks I wonder if there is a record I'm sure I could make it in the record book .

I love those Eureka Lites do they still make them 

 

[kirbyloverdan]

No Gareth

They haven't made them in years that was the last version I believe .
It was part of the Bravo line Eureka had in the 90's .

Dan

 

[gsheen]

I am looking for the first  gen Bravo soft bag. I had one when I work at Elux as a sample machine sitting in my office but it got lost. It was the first time I had seen a Eureka 

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Gareth

I hope you find one soon .
