My extensive collection

[kirbyloverdan]

And another NIB

Kirby Heritage I just bought on eBay . When this machine came out I didn't like the Orange bag so I never purchased it until the next model arrived black and gray .
Over the years I regretted it now thanx to eBay I had another chance .
See that's my problem did I really need this Kirby ?
NOOOO I didn't !

Thanks for the advice Dan!!

I'm SO impressed with the Rainbow E2 Type 12 so far. I've thought about going back to Filter Queen customers that sounds tough though too. They've invested so much in it and they don't get much credit back from Rainbow from their former FQ purchase. What I'd like to do was any who did not buy or I was going to check back with that was in a reasonable financial standing, I want to show the Rainbow system to.

Thanks again for posting of your great collection and your very nice response with advice!!

I'm absolutely impressed with your machines Dan. Best collection I've seen, just one question. What are your views on the Schoettler machines (Patriots/Airstorms) and Vortechs? I can see you seem to like your Miracle Mates, and was wondering what your thought of the others. Since those and Tri-Stars all are variations of one another.

Thanks
Eric

You are very welcome the Rainbow mud bowl will sell itself
constant airflow and water filtration can't be beat .
I just need to get over my laziness and use my Rainbow and
Water vacs more often . Good luck

any airways?

Just curious, do you have any Airway vacuums?

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Jeff

Not one airway I really want a Centurian I think that's the model
I think it's purple with a black PN .

I had one years ago and sold it to a neighbor .

Dan

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Two more

A Simplicity Jack straight suction canister .

A Electrolux Lux4000 with tools on board .
Was used reguarly until I got the Aerus Legacy
uprights .

I personally prefer to use a canister for attachment
cleaning and an upright with no tools onboard .

[kirbyloverdan]

Three more

I think vacuums are related to rabbits or I have a problem with vacuum purchasing ?

First is the last US made royal the Classic TOL 4008
This was the model I sold in my store I use this one and have
a NIB still sealed that I am keeping along with this .

Second is the TTI built Everlast 8100 although has excellent
build quality the shine is just not there look like stainless steel
finish rather than highly polished chrome appearance of the 4008 .

Last is a Sebo essential G rebadged as a Century U vac 400
It ok I prefer the Hoover Profile to the Sebos .

Dan

 

[kirbyloverdan]

I run

Several of these in my house and one at my Ocean front condo
I love them ads humidity and scents .

[sebo_fan]

Id happily have the Century vac. Its like the Ensign Stealth (SEBO X1 in black) uprights that are hugely over priced in the UK.

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Nar if it

Were feasible and if the Century was 220 I'd sell it to you really cheap

Dan

 

[alexhoovers94]

At least you can adjust the height manually.

 

[sebo_fan]

Ty Dan. One of these days I'll own a G2.

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Alex

That is correct it's the only Sebo I like I have yet to try
a Felix

Tar
You will one day I know you will my friend

[kirbyloverdan]

Another high end

Water Vacuum

My Hyla GST with lighted water bowl and wessell
power nozzle .

I like it better than my Pro Aqua .

Dan

 

[gsheen]

How many water filter vacs do you have Dan, I am not a huge fan of them if I am honest a bit fiddly to use in a hurry. That said I understand them and there point but in my opinion of all the ones i have used, only the rainbow works properly.  

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Gareth

I have a Pro Aqua , 4 Rainbows , An Aura Robo Clean , Ocean Blue and this Hyla .
I love the Rainbows the best they have been around the longest .

Yes they take a bit more work to use in a hurry that's why I have 400+ vacuums lol

Dan

 

[gsheen]

A vacuum for any propose I say  

 

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Thats right

Gareth one can never have enough vacuums
