I found a rare thrift find. It's a 1996 filter queen majestic 360 all attachments floor brush has a crack. It has manual brochures come filters and where to order charcoal filter and other 2 filters.
I brought it home and it's in great shape. The power nozzle I'll explain further just has a few paint scuffs.
I cleaned all the filters every one. I put the filter changed most frequently in. I cleaned the other ones up.
I was aware it's got same motor as TriStar. I used power nozzle and we'll it didn't suck. I took off hose cleaned up janmmed hose. I took apart the power nozzle it was clogged. I fixed bearings , the squeeky wheel brackets. I also tore whole power nozzle apart and cleaned and maintenance of everything. I put a LED light because I have oodled. It looks epic.
I fixed the vacuum to perform at peak levels with wore out filters.
I thought led light was cool and turned power nozzle on and it had a lot more power.
The exhaust is weak but with it being called filter queen I can suffice.
The electric hose with the push button lock mechanism is the best and my favorite hose of any cannister.
It fits the bill. It cost me $15. I'll look into filters but I plan to sale it ROI may not be worth buying new filters.
I have never seen a filter queen at a thrift store. I was flooded.
I have been fairing quite well with thrift finds.
The last pic is the led light just made it more ellegant.

Actually

That's either a model 95 or a model 99a. The 360 was a 2004 model. Man this photo does not shrink check the 2nd photo for a clearer shot of those two.
