Yet another HOOVER

Here is my U4262-930 HOOVER soft&light triple filtration w/brushed edge cleaning Elite from June 1999 what great machines these were

I would love a soft bag version like this, I have the hardbag ones but the soft bag ones were not sold here.

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Gareth the soft bag

Makes these Hoovers lighter and they go under furniture easier without the hard case .

I love these Hoovers as they were an awesome convertible replacement .

I took a day for me

To get caught up organizing my collection and to take a ton more pics

As I was in the garage sorting through my vacuums I hear the UPS truck rumble , I don't remember ordering anything . He carries a HOOVER box off the truck it's a brand new Floor mate then my phone rings it's my GREAT friend John Gregory owner of Sweeper Central Hoover vacuums , calling to see if I had received his latest gift .

I can't wait to try it out he was a bit upset that I was using a Shark Steam mop and said I deserved only the best to keep my floors clean . Thank you again John Gregory

That is awesome Dan, I have the first version still I got it from Dubai . Its 220v and works great. For some reason they dont sell them in SA which is odd considering that most homes here have a 80% hardfloor ( mostly tile ) ratio. 

 

[kirbyloverdan]

That's very odd

Gareth I'm going to have to mention that to my good friend John Gregory so he can pass that onto the Hoover president Dan Gregory .

Dan

 

[gsheen]

[kirbyloverdan]

Another HOOVER

Found in a 2 million dollar home I sold was sitting on top shelf in a climate controlled garage they don't even remember buying it they owned the home from the 50's and had central vac throughout house and garages . I just left it in the box after they gave it to me .

Dan

 

[gsheen]

I just found a blue version of that machine, we called it the dustette here. I need to get a new handle for mine other wise its in great condition.

Very Kool Gareth

We have basically the same machine we do have the same tastes in vacuums
