Westinghouse Speed Cleaner TV commercial

[stricklybojack]

Squares off against 3 other competing cleaners (can you name them?) & is "Proved" better, see link for video.

Wow! That is beyond fabulous!

I'm certain that "mystery cleaner A" is a Hoover. You can see the hose and wand in the background when they're weighing the bag.

What are the other two brands, I wonder..? The hoses all look to be 'rubbery', and not cloth covered.

I love that commercial so much, it's the "Sand Test" which they did for their Laundromat washers, but for Vacuums! It's super cool! I really would like to figure out a way to somehow organize all these wonderful commercials and make them available from aw.org and Vacuumland.

SUPER COOL COMMERCIAL!!

Thanks so much for posting this rare and unique commercial on one of the most prettiest machines around! My cousin Pat had bought one after her wedding in 1958.
I remember how beautiful and light weight it was and always wanted one for myself!
Curious to know how many out there in VACUUMLAND have one?

Thanks Again and keep Vacuuming!

Tania..

I have a 1959 model that is grey and white, but lost my turquoise one when I had to sell all that stuff years ago, I hope I will find another someday.
