1922 Hoover Baby Model

Getting back to the "TOPIC" of favorite Hoovers, if you please?!! Here's mine, thank you.

@ truckerx

Do applogize for getting side tracked there but that's the fun of this forum' learning about each other were we live and our shared love of vacuums

Great old hoover, Love those shaped models

I agree.......

.......this should be a place of enjoyment and unity sharing experience and interest. I will always love the Hoover Convertible Specials I grew up with and all the Convertible models that have the same hood in the variety of colors, which I hope to find a nice one in a great color sometime. I bought my Hoover Convertible model U5063-930 for my birthday in March of 1998 and still like it very much. I trim and make the Platinum HEPA bags fit and it does a great cleaning job and does an excellent job fluffing the carpet with the new brushroll

we had the identical one but in pale blue in SA, very good vacuum. My wife and I used it for many years, she loved it because it matched her kitchen accessories , all the same colour blue. We had it and a Electrolux/eureka Wide track at the same time

 

[pnluxconvlvr]

I would have bought the blue one too.......

.......I never saw this one in blue or I would have bought it. I almost bought the "preferred" model with the stretch hose at the time, but I bought this one because I loved the raised Hoover logo and the fact that it said Convertible on it.

I adore Hoover Junior models but the best one is the last proper upright, the Junior U1104.

 

[gottahaveahoove]

Yes, Bernie,

thanks for getting us back on topic.
That "Elite" named Convertible is rare. As you know, they never intended to eliminate Convertible. I, too, have a HOOVER "Baby", 1919, I believe.

Well, my most favrite Hoover
is my grandmothers Convertible 1020 pictured below, it is the vacuum I fell in love with asa little tyke in about 1987.
Another favorite is my model 64 Citation which is pictured at left of the 1020

my 262

I am very fond of this old girl as well.
I love the shape of the bag when its all blown up, something that got lost when paper bags came out. Although not in the pic the handle is in perfect condition

 

[joejoe83]

Another favorite is my Hoover Convertible U4127. My grandma had one just like it when I was little.

 

[pnluxconvlvr]

I love the steps shot gottahaveahoove.......

What an awesome Hoover collection you have! I love the yellow one the second step down, and all the Convertibles with that style hood even though I like headlights. Very nice !

 

[gottahaveahoove]

Thanks! That's just a "sample"

As the prostitute said to the Navy,"There's more where that came from".

 

[gottahaveahoove]

Behind bars!

This was done for a minimeet. They don't live there, as a rule.

 

[pnluxconvlvr]

Show off.

Those are beautiful. I have always liked the lighter aqua blue as well. I hope to find one eventually. I will probably buy a base, take it to a paint shop and go from there. Tyler

 

[raycarter]

Wow...

Ok, time to admit that I'm drooling over John's Convertible collection with an envious gleam in my eye! But seriously, I am happy to see that they are in the hands of someone who truly appreciates them. Here are a few more of mine.

 

[raycarter]

Just one more...

Of my 1966 Convertible model 70.
