Regina / Switson/Viking/Coronado etc Trimline Machine Bags

[collector2]

Hey Everyone:

I just had to do some searching for a guy that contacted me looking for bags for his Regina Trimline from the 1960s so I thought I would share the results. If anyone has one of these machines and needs bags the Eureka CN2 bags will work. I had to put the bag into the machine first though (LOL Upside down) then connect the cardboard face to the machine spout to make it fit easy. You might also want to trim a bit off the cardboard to make it easier to fit but it will work without doing that.

And While we are on the subject of the Trimline Machines here are the ones I have.

Viking D151, Viking D175, Coronado V222, Coronado V233, Regina V207.

Anyone have any other versions to share??

This is great information Doug - thank you so much for posting. I have a Viking version - the D175, but I haven't so far been able to locate a bag that really works well in this machine. The spout diameter is smaller than many machines and its off centre position seems to limit choices. In addition the bag chamber itself isn't very deep.

The best I've found so far is a Hoover Type K. The downside to that bag however is that it is much bigger and takes up extra space in the shallow bag chamber which seems to reduce airflow/suction (since the fan is at the back).

What did the original ones look like? I've never seen one before - when I got the machine it only had the cloth bag in it.

I'll be sure to try these Eureka CN2 bags - thanks so much for sharing
