My extensive collection

[kirbyloverdan]

I`m Sorry Mike

but so many people on this site always question me and I get tired of it.

Thank you for the complement I appreciate it : )

That post was something between Adam and I

I posted pictures on here to show people vacuums they might not ever see .

I don't care what anyone thinks about me because I know what a kind hearted and giving person I am .

Been questioning you? About what? There honestly is nothing to question. Nosy people will be nosy. There are alot of opinionated people and others just need to look past it.

 

[sebo_fan]

Yes there is a lot of opinionated people. Nice collection there.

But then if you're going to put out thoughts like "I dont like Sebo" and the Hoover cleans better because it has a dual suction channel, then you don't do yourself much of a service.

End of the day, collections are great but it can be expensive regardless of how many or how little you have.

In my experience, as the parts become scarcer to get, it makes more sense to hang onto vintage vacuums unless you need the space back in your home. Hence my reason to sell off virtually everything I had that was vintage. Miss my Hoover Juniors and Seniors but I needed the space!

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Thank you

Sebo fan I guess I should have said in my opinion and personal experience I prefer the Hoover over a Sebo . That's why there are so many choices for everyone .

I just got carried away with my collection and these pics are just the beginning it has gotten out of control .

I love the Hoover Juinors and Seniors here we have the Convertible as you know which I will never part with my collection of them plus I have two brand new Hoover Junior's one is still in the box I will post pics of the Juniors as soon as I find them .

I am not used to opinionated or nosey people because my friends and family are not my collection has never been questioned only accepted I guess I have lucked out .

That lightweight Hoover on the end in Reply #2 looks like a Riccar almost. What do you know about it?

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Hello Tyler

very good eye it was made by Tacony for Hoover .

I will find out why or how it came about tomorrow as I am very interested in the reason also .

Ugh seeing that 1800 makes me wish I didn't sell it, wasn't crazy about it but like Dan Said the amount of standard attachments and that big dusting brush are a hard combo to beat. Now I want to buy one again !!!!!

I think the 1800 is shear perfection in a canister vacuum I love everything about mine .

Tacony is on the money when they design and produce their vacuums . Plus Tom and the museum are an asset to Tacony .

Yea I had my 1800 and rsl5 next to each other like partners in crime since they were similar in color. It was hard to get rid of them but my girl said they are the ugliest colors I have in my collection lol, I think I need to buy an 1800 again ASAP I keep looking at your 1800. I love my rattlesnake color simplicity synergy to death such a good machine and the color is amazing, at least I think so haha.

 

[sebo_fan]

I only realised last night when looking at Amazon.com that the Hoover Signature and countless other models like it might have synthetic dust bags. The Vax VCU02 I have (and might I say I love it because it is so lightweight and better made than the awful Oreck XL my parents had as well as being great for my height compared to my fave Hoover Junior uprights) only uses yellow paper dust bags.

Do all the brands you have, Dan, based on the Hoover Signature have synthetic dust bags?

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Sebo Fan

Whats a Vax VCU02 look like ?

My Hoover Signature and the Royal and the Aerus fresh ERA all have paper bags in them . I guess now they make synthetic but I haven't used those machines enough to use up all the paper bags .

Colby I LOVE the 1800 color and all of Tacony`s colors I think that's what makes their machines stand out its like a high end luxury vehicle when it comes to their colors. BUY another ASAP !!!

[sebo_fan]

Dan - the Vax is similar to the ones in Reply 1, especially the yellow one.

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Sebo Fan I think these are very good light weight vacuums .

Dan

 

[sebo_fan]

They are but the ones in the Uk under Vax aren't that well made "apparently." I have noticed it myself - the handle at the top is held in by two screws but they don't make the handle feel very complete.

I do love using it though - much easier than a lot of more modern vacs on the market and at the price I paid - much cheaper than a brand new Oreck in the UK.

 

[kirbyloverdan]

I havent

noticed that Sebo Fan I only used each once . I will look into mine to see how they are built.

Dan

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Will post

So far I am selling my Simplicity S36L

Four recent gifts

From my good friend John Gregory owner of Sweeper Central a Hoover authorized
vacuum center in Dunmore Pa on Drinker street .
The Anniversary Hoover Windtunnel
The Hoover Professional that John designed and
help bring to market .I had to have this
The last of the Commercial Elites
And a Windtunnel High performance directly from
the president of Hoover this was supposed to go to
someone else but I lucked out and John gifted it to me .
I am really impressed with the quality for a China Hoover
but they can make quality products this carries a 5 year warranty
so if it doesn't hold up Hoover will fix it and make it right .
He is a great friend I brought him some nib Hoover convertibles
and NOS Hoover parts during my visit last month .

[hoovercelebrity]

That Professional Series Decade 80-style machine sure is a looker! I've been tempted to get one of those many times!

 

[dysonman1]

Royal (TTI) now has synthetic type B bags, which is what the Aerus Lux Lite and Fresh Era (as well as the Hoover ultra light) uses. A big improvement for the Everlast series as well.

I love the looks of this Hoover and I love the LED headlights .
You better hurry if you want one I think they are being discontinued
and replaced with a newer model .
