For me it has to be Numatics! Well, I'm sure you knew that already

At one time in my life it was the Hoover Junior and Senior - I think most UK collectors "from Hooverland Yahoo Group" were the same - you can't just be happy with the generic standard ones that sold the highest or are available to find the most of - either second hand online or refurb'd by a fellow collector.

The soft bag colours, designs, patterns, change of switches or headlight arrangements - over and above the beater bar and other little "improvements" as the years go by - these are the things that one notices with Hoover's classic uprights.

In turn I found it hard to just collect "one Hoover Junior".
 
I love my hoover turbopower

but i have had lots of dyson's clean up and I got them all for £16

I've almost sold them all now

p.s I WISH space was no object I would have 200 dyson's left to me but not allowed

"In turn I found it hard to just collect "one Hoover Junior"." 
So true, despite the fact people think I worship the ground that my Turbopower 2's stand on, I do LOVE Hoover Juniors and I started collecting those recently...I have quite a few Juniors at the moment and once you have them in those fetching colours lined up against each other it is hard to stop getting more! Lol.
 
Well. I am sure you know me pretty well, and another vac. I like is the Kirby machines, and older Vax, along with Miele and of course Numatic
 
Wow Calem, are you teaching them that leg thing the performers do in Vegas?

I'll also say Hoover Convertibles, I'm aiming for 'one in every color!' As Jackie Kennedy once said! So far, there's Mint Green, blue, and brown! Plus one Orange U4047 in a vault somewhere!

It's like Christmas Eve when your five years old, the best part is yet come...simply glorious! When THE GREAT KIRBYRAMA speaks, you just have to listen. It's a machine built for eternity...Amazing!

Despite the fact that you've never used one.

For me, it's the Electrolux 500 series and Twin Turbo's. I love the lot and if I had the patience, time, space and money, I'd attempt to collect the whole series.

I think they really got the balance between carpet performance and tool performance on these, much more so than Hoover. Although the Electrolux's weren't quite as good on carpet as the Hoover's, the stronger hose suction and more convenient tools made up for that, and you good great performance from both in one machine.
