It's amazing it's the one I use everyday but I broke the cord clip and was madder than hell!

You got your HOOVER!!

That's a very nice Convertible. Surprised you're giving it away. However,if I recall correctly we did discuss your picking up a Hoover for your collection. That convertible looks perfect!! I think the hood color is similar to your Eureka ESP-- also a very nice machine.

Love the red Tristar. Something about machines that offer more than gray, white, black and mild colors really makes the machines jump out more. I love dark blues, greens and reds!!

Gorgeous collection, all the machines look great.

****I'm just being sarcastic with my first paragragh. If I ever offend you or anyone else on, then please don't hesitate to shoot me an email or let me know in reply thread!! I'm not trying to hurt anyones feelings as each individual reacts differently to different situations and a typed message lacks personal communication.

God Bless and Happy Vacuuming to all on Vacuumland.org!!

Tristars are great!  They're so powerful AND so easy to work on!  Plus, even the standard filtration does an excellent job.  But the real reason I love Tristars is that I have this weird fascination with looking at the debris that's vacuumed up!  LOL!  I think that's the main reason I love older Kirbys as well!

Tristar

I want more tristar's but they seem to be hard to find I kid of lucked up on this one really and it is amazing! I am looking for more!!

 

[massagemiracle]

You have a collection to be proud of! Very very nice! I am partial to canisters and I love your Electrolux's and the Tristar!


There is another tristar similar to that one on Craigslist in Louisville, I am always searching all the cities close to Indiana and there is


a red one listed down there!


If you haven't already, make you a pictorial of your collection to add to the clubs group of collections. I love going thru and looking


at everyones fantastic machines!


The picture is one of my all time favorites I found at an estate sale in Ohio, it is a new in box 6500 I paid $100 for it.

Tristen

Welcome!I have a vac store at other end of TN just east of Johnson City.Nice vacs.The red seems to be a rare color for TriStar.Your Discovery looks early with att box.Was introduced April 85.(Don't feel to bad about cord hook.They started breaking in May 85 when I was Lux service mgr.)Hint-Don't pull cord sideways on Royal hand vac.We get a lot of broken cord repairs that way.One way to add to your collection is to drive across TN to The Place of Which We Do Not Speak(part vac warehouse/part Collyer bros memorial).Have many extra Hoover,Lux,Compact and MORE!Most between free & cheap.I am changing phone to-423-297-6918
and hope to talk with you soon.Are you up for trip with
better fall weather?

[LuxGuy85]

Heck Yeah Jimmy

Heck Yeah Jimmy, I would love to come down and rummage! Haha! I have asked two local mom and pop shops here in Nashville if they would be willing for me to shadow them or intern on weekends and both gave me a abrupt NO, had one guy in Franklin humilate me in the store in front of customers came in to buy a few parts and he started degrading me for collecting them, also gave up on it that day but didnt. Anyone around the Nashville are I would love help and advice I am willing to learn almost anything.
