Broomvac, would you like to have the handle part? I don’t mind using the Thunder with the handle wand while vacuuming.
There’s a “Thunder” Storm in my Collection!

I like how people will get rid of a machine just because it's clogged. Oh well, their loss!

Correct!
that part was designed to make the existing handle easier to hold...ergonomic.
I have one and it does. Only thing is you have remove it when you want to use the hose feature to use tools (and to quiet the whistling sound when the vacuum is returned to the upright state).
Congratulation on your find and thanks for sharing.
I have dismantled a couple a few months back trying to assemble one good vacuum from a few. I found that some of the plastic used in the cyclones become brittle. I found one that was supple to complete my unit.
Thanks,
Garry

Well I got some good news and sort of bad news, the good news is that the floor tool I got for the Thunder is exactly what I needed, but the bad news is the dusting brush that I thought would be for a Fantom vacuum turned out to be for a Dirt Devil or another vacuum. So yea......

Here’s a pic of the dusting brush from the eBay seller that I brought from.

I would message the seller and let them know that what you received didn't match the picture. You may get lucky and they'll just send the correct one to you. Oh, and glad to hear you got the floor nozzle, maybe you can get the dusting brush too. It does look like Fantom used a nice soft dusting brush compared to most of tools on board machines, especially newer ones.

Fans of fans, I did messaged the seller but he or she is out of town probably. So I gotta wait a few days.

handle part
I just saw a piece of Fantom literature that calls the optional part in reply 19 a comfort grip for people who may have to vacuum for hours at a time.
