The Saturn in my collection was made by Whirlpool right after Sears finished their hostile takeover of Birtman Electric.

Wonderful pictures, and wonderful machines! I especially like your Filter Queen 200 (of course), but that Singer Roll-a-Magic is really cool too. I'm also intrigued by the McAllister Bagless. Does it use a filter system similar to that of the Filter Queen?

You've all seen my Filter Queen 350 a couple of times now, but here she is again. I wouldn't have this beauty at all had Tom not been willing to part with it, so once again, many thanks!

Drooling...

Over those old Kenmores, they sure don't make them like they used too! Great pictures everyone! I love the Saturn and the other Kenmores especially. Everything else is great too, it is nice to see new pictures instead of the same old stuff. I will have to get some pictures of my canisters.

saniway canister

My mom has a royal canister that looks just like the saniway only its blue. She's had it all my life. It's a really good vacuum and still works great. I had to use it a lot growing up so I hated it but I can appreciate what a nice vacuum it is now. Her Panasonic upright is still working good also. It's also as old as I am. They don't make anything that well anymore. The Panasonic is plastic but even so it still works good.

Most of my collection is metal uprights, most of those are Royals, my favorites. But I have been adding some tanks and canisters laltely. Not pictured are a late 1940s Kenmore Commander like my Grandmother had decades complete Filter Queen Limited Edition. Here is my Royal 4650.

Recently I have been interested in Compacts and Tristars. Here is a 1993 CXL I am completing. I chrome painted the side badge and have ordered an exsaust cap and new bumper since I could not completely remove the dark stains near the motor. I so am working on a Compact C2 and C5.
