warehouse vacs

Gary,Golden Crown-Hose would not be original,should have wands,many Eur atts but not sure how many in original color.Did find correct upholstery Sat.-Big wheel-Very few hoses,some wands,maybe several atts but as with many things stored in different areas.
Joel,No Brush N Beat after a visit by collectors from the mid west last year.
Brooms?-YES!
At least 2 upstairs and more in every corner of warehouse including about 8 we grouped together today while uncovering Sears Best 1971 Craftsman shop vac & 1 of 3 (the mid size)Invincible industrial.They range from early! with thick reddish bag to blue/white 2 motor.Teus may continue finding Regina brooms,small Shetland & various polishers.Brooms may total 15-20 and most seem different.Also have original box,shag atts & at least 1 of the smallest rechargable.
Hoping for more pics this week.Plastic Sears,Eureka & Hoover canisters are very close to trip to dumpster after cords go to scrap yard!!
 
rugsucker,

What all do you have for Regina Brooms? I have been looking everywhere for one! Also, is there any chance you could email me?
 
Rugsucker,
I'd be interested in the Lewyt hose, wands and rug/floor nozzle. It doesn't really matter what condition the hose is in as long as the handle and hose end are in good shape whereby I could replace the hose. I'm interested in the Golden Crown as well with or without the attachments.

jaker15-As above I hope to group more Regina brooms today and someone else asked first but there should be enough for both of you and others.
countryguy-As seen the Golden Crown is found and can be held for you.Hoses and atts can be in different places including 2 story with attic main store and might take longer.
To all--I am taking wants from here as well as phone calls.Then first step is list on legal pad,then gather items interested in,check condition,talk with you again(usually phone-mine is 423-297-6918)agree on reasonable price and shipping and then old vacs will have new home.As always if you or someone in your area can drive up with large cargo space and reasonable amount of currency you will get same day service but not a vac such as the Golden Crown that is being held for one who was first to ask.
 
Do you have any green and woodgrain Sears Best canisters and Power Mates as well as a hose. Or still have the 60s blue one discussed earlier?
 
Interested in a Kirby

Hi there! I'm new to collecting vacuums. I have 2 Electrolux 1205's, 1 Electrolux LX, 1 Electrolux XXX, 1 Hoover Convertible, a 1940's handheld Westinghouse, and a 1990's handheld dirt devil. I would love to add a Kirby to my growing collection! I love the 500 series, Dual Sanitronic 80, and the Heritage! It's hard to decide what I want as a first Kirby, but I would be interested in purchasing a Heritage from you. I don't live anywhere near you, so I would have to have it shipped. I'm just wondering how much you would want for a Kirby Heritage? Also, I would prefer one that is complete, like I said, I'm just taking off with the vacuum bug, and would love to have one to use! Thank you! -Michelle

That's awesome to hear that you love Luxes and want a Kirby! I have a few Kirbys as well as Electroluxes (my favorite is the XXX) and can confirm that the 500 series Kirby cleaners are fantastic. I have a 1954 model 514, and being 60 years old, it still works like new.

Thanks!!! The only Electrolux that I ever knew of was the 1205. My mom used one since I was about 8 years old up on till I was 18 I think. It was her mom's and she bought it new! It's not new anymore! I have a thread on the pics of what it looks like now. I found it at my parents' house in their garbage heap! Needless to say, it now lives with me! It's mostly covered in rust, missing all but one wheel, the handle is completely missing, but I'm going to restore it! What's funny is it still runs great and the cord winder works like it's new! Well, my mom just passed about 6 months ago and now that I have it, it means so much more! That vacuum is what started my obsession! Before I got my mom's 1205, my husband bought me my own 1205 from Ebay and I use it everyday! So, from there I realized that there are so many different styles of Electrolux canisters and I had to have the LX and the XXX!!! Anyways, I've always thought the Kirbys were scary and fascinating at the same time! I've always cherished the movie Brave Little Toaster and loved "Kirby"! Ha Ha! I think they're amazing part of history and can see myself collecting Kirbys like a crazy person! I collect vintage clock radios, Sunbeam Mixmasters stand mixers, electric hand mixers, vacuums, and chainsaws too! I don't know much about Kirbys at all! What model do you think is the best and a good one to have for a daily user??? Thanks for writing to me! -Michelle
 
Luxy1205,

You're certainly welcome! I will start a new thread under the "Vintage" section to give you a bit of info on Kirby. There are several members on here who know more about them than I do, and they will do everything they can to help. Check the Vintage section soon!
 
@rugsucker  do any of these vintage Electrolux's work? also what's the shipping rates  as I'd like the luxes for a friend and if you still have any preferably with a hose a floating hoover constellation for my self. I'm not promising anything but I did get interested.


Thanks


2011hoover700


p.s. both items will be shipped to my place. if we make the deal.
