Weekend Find

[vacfanatic]

I found this at Goodwill for $29 last night. Tore the entire thing apart, and cleaned all of the drywall dust out of it. Apparently that was it's last task before it was dumped off at the GW. The only thing wrong with it was it's missing the front wheel carraige, but I've already sourced parts for it, $10. Needs a new light bulb, and one of the extension tube clips broke. $20 parts max. This is my first bagless vacuum to my collection.

Nice Find

It looks brand new, I've never seen this model, it looks very Fantom like exept the hose doesn't come out of the handle,I'm sure it has a lot better suction,I liked the Fantoms because there was no pleated paper filter to clog up and have to clean,looks like this is the same design,I like having a bagless on hand especially with two cats,so I can empty it after each use so the litter and hair is outside in the trash and not sitting in my Kirby or Filter Queen,It would get expensive to change the bags after every use.

great find
I actually like these machines. Very powerful and it grooms the carpet really nicely if I could find one I would buy it right away

Hmmm!

That actually looks more like a Bissel or Eureka to me. Doesn't seem to have the typical Hoover look. But I guess everything at Hoover is changing. I stop by Good Will occasionally. I never seem to find anything in there. I guess it's just hit and miss!
