My Senior sure can beat - as it sweeps - as it cleans...

This is the reason I bang on about my Ranger all the time!  My 612 is actually even better than this but as I had the Ranger out at the time I thought I'd just film it.

About like the carpet next to the litter box in the garage when I swith on the Decade 80! There have been some Hoovers that didn't thrill me, mostly later model bagless, ect but I have never seen one that didn't do a job on beating the carpet well.

Every time someone from Europe says "Hoover Senior", I think of a Hoover Senior like mine. Instead of a Hoover Convertible. Nice Hoover Senior Ranger you have there.

That Senior metal is one beastly,industrial vacuum cleaner!!!I want one of those!!!Liked the Senior in the video cleaning up the dry "hairballs" off the nice blue floor!Then the video that followed showing the 1310 commercial model.

"Lovely vacuum cleaner"

It certainly is.  A lot of people dislike the Rangers because they are just standard Seniors/Convertibles with a bulkier hood, but I love them - especially the Harvest Gold (?) colour, very original to the 1970s.

"no surprise there!!"

Indeed not John!  And to think a co-worker (well, ex co-worker now) couldn't believe it when I said that the vintage HOOVERs perform better than modern cleaners.  It really took her by surprise when I said that, which I suppose it would - but "we" know better...
