Some HOOVERS from my recent trip to Ohio.

Oh, that's exciting!! You may be able to try my Celebrity by then as well!! I have acquired an actual Celebrity IV Elite power nozzle, I have a neck arriving for it in the mail very shortly and then I'll post photos. Joel is extremely busy but claims the Celebity suction unit is doing very well. He found a quadraflex power head to go with it that he's working on. I'll use that Quadraflex head for a Dimension 1000 canister that I acquired the two are the proper mates-- same color and would be proper matched, so I'm quite eager and excited for when that's ready!!

I've been on a DESPERATE search for a decent hose for the Dimension 1000 though. So if you know anyone that may I've one in decent shape and material== I'M QUITE INTERESTED AND THE WALLET IS OPEN!!!!

Thanks and hope all is well with you. Looking forward to trying some vacs. I'd also like to try one of your Decade 800's, its been quite a while since I've used one of those and would be a neat comparison to my Decade 80 I think!! hahaha!!

Happy Holidays to happy vacuuming to all!!

Hey John!

My mom has the Gold U4007. But does she use it? No, my mother and sister use an ORECK instead. Hopefully, my sister will move out soon and take the Oreck with her. Nothing against Oreck but the Convertible is a better cleaner. My mother received a Convertible at her wedding shower and bought a new one at Sears in the early 90’s. She should know better.

Just noticed John, what I thought was the Royal Crest was the flower on the PowerPlus!

Kenny!

That's a great page there.  I love that model.  I have 4 now.  They work great, look great, too. They certainly were well-built. Jamie:  That cleaner was made "over there".

The Powerplus...

Hi John
Is that Dual Voltage by chance?
I would LOVE one of the US built Dual Voltage Convertibles lol...

You'll have to ask John Gregory about that machine.

It's his, and,  he has all the specs.

[gottahaveahoove]

Well,

There ya go!

 

[guardsman69]

[kirbyultimateg]

John Long and John Gregory, Do you have any Hoover Elite 200s and Hoover C1403s? Thanks.

 

[durango159]

John, you restored that Decade 80, remember!!!

I also have a Convertible U4413-042 that I use a fair amount.

It's cleaned up now, since this photo, I'll take another pic at some time, although it may journey to Pittston in January as well. One may never know!!

 

[durango159]

Don't forget I love this upright is well.

Is it real or is this figments of our imagination?? I am actually enjoying the use of an upright vacuum??? Is their hope of my breaking out of the power head canister shell? My profile still shows a canister!!!!

Hmmmm, What would the Magic 8 ball say!!

Always happy to be running my Hoovers!!!

Here's the Power Drive that I love!!

negative on the c1403 or any elite 200's check ebay

 

[kirbyultimateg]

The Hoover Elite 200 and the Hoover C1403 are my dream Hoovers!

 

[guardsman69]

due to their lightness people tend to throw those hoovers out faster than convertibles and other types of heavier duty uprights....as a fan of the elite i am always on the lookout for a good one ....sometimes they do pop up on ebay

 

[kirbyultimateg]

The Elites/Legacys/TurboLites cleans as well as the Concepts/Innovations/WindTunnels.

 

[guardsman69]

NOTHING OUT CLEANS THE HOOVER CONEPT ONE 4 BRUSH QUADROFLEX AGITATOR ELITE ARE CLOSE BUT THE CONCEPT ONE RULES THE ROOST

 

[kirbyultimateg]

Is it me or that the Hoover Dial A Matic bagged self propelled uprights do not clean nearly as well as the Hoover WindTunnel bagged self propelled uprights? Thanks.

 

[kirbyultimateg]

I had a Dial A Matic from 2003-2009. I had two WindTunnels. I had the 1st one from 2001-2006 and I had the 2nd one from 2006-2007.
When I had my DAM and my two WT's, I did a cleaning test on my medium pile nylon plush carpeting. The WT's cleaned circles around the DAM in deep cleaning and grooming and suction/airflow and filtration.
My DAM was a 1976 U6039-030 bagged self propelled model.
My 1st WT was a 2001 bagged self propelled model. My 2nd WT was a 2006 bagged self propelled model.
